Vancouver, BC

Contractor

AI / Emerging Tech Security Analyst (AI Training)

About the Role

What if your security expertise could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems defend against attacks, misuse, and manipulation

  • We're looking for AI Security Analysts to stress-test frontier AI models — identifying vulnerabilities, evaluating adversarial scenarios, and helping ensure that cutting-edge AI stays safe, reliable, and aligned with real-world security standards.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for security professionals who are curious about how modern AI systems behave when pushed to their limits.

If you understand how things break — and why that matters — this role was made for you.

  • Organization: Alignerr

  • Type: Hourly Contract

  • Location: Remote

  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Analyze AI and LLM security scenarios to understand how models behave under adversarial, edge-case, or unexpected conditions

  • Review and evaluate prompt injection attacks, data leakage risks, model abuse patterns, and system misuse cases

  • Classify security issues by real-world impact and likelihood, and recommend appropriate mitigations

  • Help evaluate and improve AI system behavior so it remains safe, reliable, and aligned with security best practices

  • Work across realistic scenarios drawn from the cutting edge of AI deployment and research

  • Complete task-based assignments independently on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • Background in cybersecurity, application security, or a related field — with a strong interest in how AI systems are built and deployed

  • Familiar with modern security threat modeling and how those concepts apply to emerging AI technologies

  • Naturally analytical and precise — you think carefully about complex systems and potential failure modes

  • Curious about AI: how large language models work, where they can go wrong, and what it takes to keep them safe

  • Comfortable working independently and communicating findings clearly in writing

Nice to Have

  • Hands-on experience with penetration testing, red teaming, or adversarial security research

  • Familiarity with AI/ML systems, LLMs, or prompt engineering

  • Background in application security, cloud security, or software engineering

  • Experience with threat modeling frameworks or security risk classification

  • Prior involvement in AI safety, alignment research, or responsible AI initiatives

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading research labs

  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you

  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work

  • Make a tangible impact on the safety and security of AI systems that affect millions of people

  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
