Job description

Identity & Access Management (IAM) Analyst (AI Training)

About the Role

Identity sits at the heart of most modern security failures — and the next generation of AI systems needs to understand why. We're looking for experienced IAM professionals to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models by working through realistic enterprise identity and access scenarios.

This is a unique opportunity to put your security expertise to work at the frontier of AI development, partnering with world-leading research labs to make AI smarter about how IAM risk actually emerges and propagates in real environments.

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

What You'll Do

  • Analyze IAM, SSO, and access control scenarios to identify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and failure points
  • Classify permission issues, privilege escalation paths, and identity-related vulnerabilities
  • Review zero-trust architectures and access design decisions for correctness and risk
  • Generate and validate realistic identity security scenarios used to train and evaluate AI systems
  • Provide structured, expert-level feedback that directly shapes how AI reasons about enterprise security
  • Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience with IAM, SSO, or enterprise identity platforms
  • Solid understanding of RBAC, least-privilege principles, and access review processes
  • Familiar with how identity failures occur in practice and how attackers exploit them
  • Able to think critically about access control design and articulate reasoning clearly
  • Detail-oriented and comfortable working through complex, realistic security scenarios
  • No prior AI experience required — your security knowledge is what matters

Nice to Have

  • Experience with cloud identity platforms (Azure AD, Okta, AWS IAM, Google Cloud Identity)
  • Familiarity with zero-trust frameworks or PAM solutions
  • Background in penetration testing, red teaming, or security architecture
  • Knowledge of compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or NIST

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, anywhere in the world
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Contribute to meaningful work that shapes how AI understands enterprise security
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
