$38-60/hr Remote Freelance CODING

About The Role

We partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. Right now, we're looking for experienced cloud security practitioners to help us develop datasets and evaluations focused on cloud security and modern infrastructure.

This isn't a theoretical role. We want people who have seen how cloud environments actually break — and can bring that real-world perspective to help AI reason better about security.

• 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 and failure patterns
• Review IAM, networking, storage, and container security issues in realistic contexts
• Classify security gaps, misconfigurations, and cloud-related failures based on real-world impact
• Validate and improve AI-generated security reasoning so it accurately reflects how cloud incidents unfold
• Provide structured, expert feedback that directly shapes how AI understands cloud security

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in production
• Solid understanding of cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security
• Familiar with real-world misconfigurations and security incidents — not just theory
• Able to reason clearly about blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact
• Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments

Nice To Have

• Experience with cloud security certifications (AWS Security Specialty, CCSP, etc.)
• Background in incident response, penetration testing, or cloud architecture
• Familiarity with AI evaluation workflows or data labeling projects

Why Join Us

• Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
• Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
• Contribute to AI that needs to understand security the way real practitioners do
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
