About this role

Threat Intelligence Analyst (AI Training)

We partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. Now we're looking for experienced threat intelligence professionals to bring real-world adversary knowledge into that work.

Your expertise in campaigns, TTPs, and threat reporting will directly shape how AI understands, analyzes, and communicates cyber threats — making a meaningful impact on the security of tomorrow's AI systems.

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

What You'll Do

  • Analyze and classify real-world threat reports, adversary campaigns, and attacker behavior
  • Evaluate indicators of compromise, TTPs, and end-to-end attack narratives for accuracy and realism
  • Help generate, structure, and validate threat intelligence data used to train and assess AI systems
  • Review AI-generated threat intelligence outputs and flag inconsistencies, errors, or fabricated data
  • Apply your field experience to ensure AI reasoning reflects how threats are actually tracked and communicated in practice

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of experience in threat intelligence, SOC analysis, or cybersecurity research
  • Solid familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK, OSINT collection, or CTI workflows
  • Ability to distinguish realistic attacker behavior from noise, hallucinations, or synthetic artifacts
  • Strong analytical, research, and written communication skills
  • Self-directed and comfortable working asynchronously on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

  • Experience writing or reviewing structured threat intelligence reports (e.g., STIX/TAXII, ISACs)
  • Familiarity with specific threat actor groups, malware families, or intrusion campaigns
  • Background in red teaming, incident response, or digital forensics
  • Prior experience with AI evaluation or data labeling workflows

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Put your hard-earned security expertise to use in a high-impact, forward-looking domain
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
