About this Role

What You'll Do

  • Analyze and classify real-world threat reports, adversary campaigns, and attacker behavior patterns
  • Evaluate indicators of compromise (IOCs), TTPs, and end-to-end attack narratives for accuracy and authenticity
  • Generate, structure, and validate threat intelligence data used to train and benchmark AI systems
  • Review AI-generated cybersecurity outputs and assess them for technical accuracy, realism, and consistency
  • Apply your practitioner knowledge to distinguish genuine attacker behavior from noise or fabricated data

About the Role

We partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI systems — and we need experienced threat intelligence professionals to help us get there. As a Threat Intelligence Analyst, you'll bring your real-world security expertise to one of the most impactful frontiers in tech: teaching AI how threats are tracked, analyzed, and communicated. You'll work with realistic threat reports, adversary campaigns, and attack narratives to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI models that understand cybersecurity the way practitioners do. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role — work on your schedule, on your terms.

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of experience in threat intelligence, SOC analysis, or security operations
  • Familiar with MITRE ATT&CK, OSINT collection techniques, or CTI workflows
  • Able to critically evaluate threat data and separate signal from noise
  • Strong analytical, research, and written communication skills
  • Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

  • Experience writing or reviewing threat intelligence reports or advisories
  • Familiarity with threat actor profiling, campaign tracking, or malware analysis
  • Background in red teaming, incident response, or digital forensics
  • Prior exposure to AI training or data annotation workflows

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work independently on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Apply your specialized expertise in a novel and high-impact way
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension

Requirements

  • Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the assessment actually like?

Notoriously strict. Alignerr uses TestGorilla for role-specific timed tests — a blank coding environment for engineers, rigorous grammar and fact-checking for writers. There is almost no hand-holding. The critical catch: this is essentially a one-shot process. Fail or abandon the assessment, and you are typically locked out of that role permanently with no option to retake.

How quickly can I start earning after I pass?

Not immediately. Even after passing the assessment and completing identity verification (via Persona) and billing setup (via Deel), you may sit in a waiting pool for weeks or months. You only start earning when a project matching your specific skills launches and you are officially assigned. Do not plan around Alignerr income until you are actively on a project.

Is there a community?

Yes — and it is one of Alignerr's genuine strengths. Once assigned to a project, you are added to Slack channels where you can ask questions, get rubric clarifications from admins, and talk to other AI trainers. This is rare in AI training and makes a real difference when guidelines are ambiguous or change mid-project.

What does the work actually look like?

It is practical, hands-on data work. You might be recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. The tasks are designed to be short and distinct—typically 5-60 minutes per task.

How flexible is the schedule?

Extremely. This is true "log in and work" flexibility. You can usually work for 20 minutes or 4 hours depending on your availability. There are rarely minimum hour requirements, making it ideal for side income.

Is there an interview?

Usually, no. Hiring for these roles is almost entirely based on passing an automated assessment or "qualification" task. If you pass the test, you get access to the work.

What is the barrier to entry?

Alignerr is known for difficult technical assessments. You must pass a timed test in your specific domain (e.g., Python, Physics, or Language) before you are eligible for any paid projects.
