Job description
Application Security Analyst (AI Training)
About the Role
What if your security instincts could make AI smarter? At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build and train frontier AI models — and we need experienced application security professionals to help us get it right.
You'll work with realistic, production-grade security scenarios to help AI systems learn how to think like a skilled AppSec analyst: assessing risk, identifying exploitability, and recommending smart remediation. This isn't theoretical work — it's grounded in the messy, complex reality of how software actually breaks.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Analyze real-world application security scenarios across code, APIs, and system behavior
- Classify and assess vulnerabilities including authentication flaws, injection risks, access control issues, and business logic bugs
- Evaluate secure coding practices and the quality of proposed remediation strategies
- Create and validate security-focused reasoning datasets that teach AI how to assess and prioritize application risk accurately
- Distinguish genuine exploitability from theoretical or low-impact risk — and explain your reasoning clearly
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in application security, product security, or software security engineering
- Solid working knowledge of the OWASP Top 10 and common production vulnerabilities
- Able to think like both an attacker and a defender — you know what actually matters in a real environment
- Strong written communication skills with the ability to structure and explain security reasoning clearly
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on async, task-based assignments
Nice to Have
- Experience with penetration testing, threat modeling, or secure code review
- Familiarity with bug bounty programs or vulnerability disclosure processes
- Background in DevSecOps or security tooling integration
Why Join Us
- Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research teams
- Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
- Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
- Your expertise shapes how the next generation of AI understands security
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
