Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit)

About The Role
What if your ability to think like an adversary could directly shape how AI understands and reasons about cybersecurity threats? We're looking for Offensive Security Analysts to analyze real-world attack paths, model adversary behavior, and help build the AI systems that will define the future of security.
This role is focused on structured adversarial reasoning — not exploit development. You'll bring your red team instincts and attack knowledge to a unique challenge: teaching AI how threats actually unfold, where defenses break down, and how risk cascades through modern environments.
Fully remote, flexible hours, and meaningful work at the frontier of AI.
Organization: Alignerr
Type: Hourly Contract
Location: Remote
Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
Analyze attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across realistic, production-like environments
Identify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in complex system architectures
Review and evaluate red team scenarios, intrusion narratives, and threat models
Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and benchmark AI systems
Articulate attack chains, impact assessments, and risk tradeoffs in clear, structured formats
Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments — on your own schedule
Who You Are
2+ years of hands-on experience in pentesting, red teaming, or a blue-team role with deep offensive knowledge
You understand how real attacks unfold in production environments — not just in theory
You can clearly explain attack chains, adversary intent, and downstream impact to both technical and non-technical audiences
Detail-oriented and systematic — you document your reasoning as rigorously as your findings
Comfortable working independently without day-to-day oversight
Nice to Have
Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or STRIDE
Experience with threat modeling, adversary simulation, or purple team exercises
Background in cloud security, network architecture, or enterprise environments
Prior work in security research, CTF competitions, or technical writing
Exposure to AI tools or data labeling workflows
Why Join Us
Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside the world's leading AI research labs
Fully remote and flexible — structure your work around your life, not the other way around
Freelance autonomy with the substance of meaningful, high-impact projects
Apply your offensive security expertise in a novel, intellectually engaging context
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
