Cloud Security Analyst

Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more accurate AI systems — and we need cloud security practitioners who know how cloud environments fail in the real world.

This is your opportunity to put your hands-on security experience to work on something bigger: helping frontier AI understand the nuances of cloud misconfigurations, IAM failures, and infrastructure vulnerabilities the way a seasoned engineer would.

• 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 real-world impact
• Review and evaluate IAM policies, networking configurations, storage permissions, and container security setups
• Classify security gaps, misconfigurations, and cloud-related failures based on blast radius and business risk
• Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning to ensure it reflects how cloud incidents actually unfold
• Provide structured, expert feedback that directly shapes how AI models reason about cloud security

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production (AWS, GCP, and/or Azure)
• Solid understanding of cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security concepts
• Familiarity with real-world misconfigurations, security incidents, and how they escalate
• Able to reason clearly about blast radius, risk exposure, and downstream business impact
• Strong written communication — you can explain complex security concepts clearly and concisely

Nice to Have

• Experience in cloud security engineering, DevSecOps, or infrastructure security
• Familiarity with security frameworks like CIS Benchmarks, NIST, or CSA CCM
• Prior exposure to AI evaluation, red-teaming, or technical writing

Why Join Us

• Work directly on cutting-edge AI systems built with top research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
• Make a meaningful impact on how AI understands and reasons about real-world security
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
