Offensive Security Analyst (Structured / Non-Exploit)

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. If you think like an attacker and can articulate how threats unfold in production environments, we want to hear from you.

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

What You'll Do

* Analyze realistic attack paths, kill chains, and adversary strategies across modern systems and environments * Identify and classify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and defensive gaps in structured scenarios * Review red-team-style narratives and intrusion scenarios for accuracy, realism, and completeness * Generate, label, and validate adversarial reasoning data used to train and evaluate AI models * Clearly articulate attack chains, business impact, and security tradeoffs in written form * 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 * You understand how real attacks unfold in production environments — not just in theory * You can break down a complex attack chain and explain it clearly to a technical audience * You think in terms of attacker objectives, not just individual techniques * Naturally detail-oriented with a structured, methodical approach to analysis * Comfortable producing written assessments and structured data outputs

Nice to Have

* Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, or STRIDE * Experience writing threat models, attack narratives, or red team reports * Background in threat intelligence, security architecture review, or purple teaming * Exposure to cloud, OT/ICS, or enterprise network environments * Prior experience contributing to AI or data labeling projects

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 * Apply your offensive security expertise to a genuinely novel and high-impact problem space * Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
