Security Operations Analyst (AI Training)
About The Role
We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build AI systems that reason through real-world security incidents — and we need experienced SOC analysts to make it happen.
Your expertise in threat detection, alert triage, and incident response will directly shape how next-generation AI understands and navigates modern security operations. This is a rare opportunity to influence frontier AI from the inside, without leaving your area of expertise.
- Organization: Alignerr
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
- Analyze realistic SOC scenarios — incidents, alerts, and investigation workflows — to evaluate how AI systems reason through them
- Classify alert severity, determine root causes, and recommend appropriate response actions
- Review AI-generated detection logic and investigation outputs for accuracy and real-world alignment
- Validate that AI responses reflect how skilled analysts actually detect, triage, and respond to threats
- Provide structured feedback that directly improves AI model performance in security contexts
- Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule
Who You Are
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in SOC, incident response, or security operations roles
- Solid familiarity with SIEM platforms, alert triage processes, and investigation workflows
- Sharp instinct for separating true security signals from noise and false positives
- Able to articulate your reasoning clearly in written form
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on task-based assignments
Nice to Have
- Experience with threat hunting, malware analysis, or digital forensics
- Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, or the Cyber Kill Chain
- Background working across multiple SIEM or SOAR platforms
- Interest in AI systems and how they're trained and evaluated
Why Join Us
- Work directly on cutting-edge AI projects with top-tier research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
- Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
- Make a meaningful impact on how AI handles real-world cybersecurity challenges
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
