Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)
About The Role
At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and evaluate cutting-edge AI models. Right now, we’re building datasets and evaluations focused on cloud security - and we need practitioners who truly understand how cloud environments fail in the real world.
This is a unique opportunity to put your hands-on cloud security experience to work shaping how AI reasons about infrastructure risk, misconfigurations, and real-world incidents.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10-40 hours/week
What You’ll Do
- Analyze cloud security scenarios across AWS, GCP, and Azure to identify risks, failure patterns, and misconfigurations
- Review and evaluate IAM policies, networking configurations, storage permissions, and container security setups
- Classify security gaps and cloud-related failures based on real-world impact and blast radius
- Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning so it accurately reflects how cloud incidents actually unfold
- Provide structured, expert feedback that directly improves frontier AI security capabilities
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production
- Strong familiarity with cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security concepts
- Experience identifying and reasoning about real-world misconfigurations and security incidents
- Able to clearly articulate blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact of security failures
- Detail-oriented, self-motivated, and comfortable working independently and asynchronously
Nice to Have
- Experience across multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, and/or Azure)
- Background in cloud security certifications (AWS Security Specialty, CCSP, etc.)
- Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK for Cloud, CIS Benchmarks, or NIST
- Prior experience with AI evaluation or data labeling projects
Why Join Us
- Work directly on frontier AI systems used by the world's top research labs
- Fully remote and flexible - work on your own schedule
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
- Meaningful impact: your expertise shapes how AI understands and reasons about cloud security
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
