Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit)
Denver
**Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit) --- AI Training** **About The Role** What if your offensive security expertise could directly shape how AI understands cyber threats, adversary behavior, and real-world attack chains? We're looking for experienced security professionals to analyze and model realistic attack scenarios --- helping train and evaluate the AI systems that will define the next generation of cybersecurity reasoning. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No exploit development required --- just deep, practical knowledge of how real attacks unfold and a sharp ability to articulate what defenders miss. * 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-style environments * Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps across modern infrastructure * Review red-team style scenarios and intrusion narratives for accuracy, completeness, and real-world plausibility * Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate frontier AI systems * Clearly explain how attacks propagate, where defenses fail, and how risk compounds across complex environments * Work independently and asynchronously --- fully 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 * Strong understanding of how real attacks unfold in production environments --- from initial access to lateral movement and impact * Able to think like an adversary and clearly communicate attack chains, tradeoffs, and impact to technical audiences * Methodical and detail-oriented --- you spot what others overlook and know how to document it clearly * Comfortable working independently across a variety of threat scenarios and system types **Nice to Have** * Experience with threat modeling, adversary emulation, or structured red team engagements * Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT\&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or OWASP * Background in security architecture, incident response, or threat intelligence * Prior experience with AI tools, data labeling, or evaluation workflows **Why Join Us** * Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside leading AI research labs * Fully remote and flexible --- work when and where it suits you * Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work * Apply your offensive security expertise to a genuinely novel and high-impact domain * Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
