Job description

Application Security Analyst (AI Training)

About the Role

If you know how software breaks in the real world — not just in theory — this role was built for you. We're partnering with leading AI research labs to train frontier AI models to think like experienced security professionals. Your hands-on expertise in application security will directly shape how AI systems assess, prioritize, and reason about software vulnerabilities.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract opportunity where your security knowledge becomes the foundation for the next generation of AI.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Analyze realistic application security scenarios spanning code, APIs, and live system behavior
  • Classify and evaluate vulnerabilities including authentication flaws, injection risks, and business logic issues
  • Assess secure coding practices and evaluate remediation strategies for real-world applicability
  • Build and validate security-focused reasoning datasets that teach AI to accurately assess and prioritize application risk
  • Distinguish genuine exploitability from theoretical risk — and explain your reasoning clearly

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in application, product, or software security
  • Solid familiarity with the OWASP Top 10 and common production vulnerabilities
  • Able to think critically about real-world exploitability — not just textbook risk
  • Strong written communication skills with the ability to structure technical reasoning clearly
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently and asynchronously

Nice to Have

  • Experience with penetration testing, bug bounty programs, or secure code review
  • Background in API security, cloud-native application security, or DevSecOps
  • Familiarity with threat modeling frameworks or risk scoring methodologies

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and asynchronous — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Apply your security expertise to a genuinely new and meaningful challenge
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
