About this Role

What You'll Do

  • Analyze and classify threat reports, adversary campaigns, and attacker behavior patterns
  • Evaluate indicators of compromise (IOCs), TTPs, and end-to-end attack narratives for accuracy and realism
  • Generate, structure, and validate threat intelligence data used to train and benchmark AI models
  • Review AI-generated cybersecurity outputs and flag inaccuracies, inconsistencies, or unrealistic content
  • Apply your knowledge of real-world threat actor behavior to distinguish signal from noise

About the Role

We're looking for experienced threat intelligence professionals to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI systems. At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs β€” and your real-world expertise in adversary behavior, CTI workflows, and attack analysis will directly shape how AI understands and reasons about cybersecurity threats. This isn't a typical analyst role. You'll be working at the intersection of cybersecurity and frontier AI, bringing domain credibility that no dataset can fake.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in threat intelligence, SOC operations, or security analysis
  • Familiar with MITRE ATT&CK, OSINT collection methodologies, or CTI workflows
  • Able to critically evaluate attacker behavior and identify fabricated or inaccurate threat data
  • Strong analytical and written communication skills β€” you can explain complex threats clearly
  • Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

  • Experience writing threat intelligence reports or producing finished intelligence products
  • Background in malware analysis, incident response, or red team operations
  • Familiarity with AI systems or previous experience in AI data evaluation

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible β€” work on your schedule, on your terms
  • Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
  • Contribute to AI that genuinely understands cybersecurity β€” not just pattern-matches on keywords
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as projects scale

Requirements

  • Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
  • Reliable high-speed internet connection
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
  • Demonstrated expertise in Software Engineering

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the assessment actually like?

Notoriously strict. Alignerr uses TestGorilla for role-specific timed tests β€” 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 β€” 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 distinctβ€”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.
