Cloud Security Analyst
Cloud Security Analyst (AI Training)About The RoleWe're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI — and we need cloud security practitioners who understand how real cloud environments fail.This isn't a theoretical exercise. You'll be working with real-world cloud security scenarios across AWS, GCP, and Azure, helping evaluate and improve AI systems that reason about infrastructure risk. If you've dealt with IAM misconfigurations, exposed storage buckets, or container escape scenarios in production, your experience is exactly what we need.Organization: AlignerrType: Hourly ContractLocation: RemoteCommitment: 10–40 hours/week (flexible)What You'll DoAnalyze cloud security scenarios across AWS, GCP, and Azure to identify realistic risks and failure patternsReview IAM policies, networking configurations, storage permissions, and container security setupsClassify misconfigurations, security gaps, and cloud-native vulnerabilities based on real-world impactEvaluate and improve AI-generated security reasoning to ensure it reflects how actual cloud incidents unfoldAssess blast radius, risk exposure, and business impact of identified security failuresWho You Are2+ years of hands-on experience working with cloud environments in productionSolid understanding of cloud IAM, networking, storage, and container security across one or more major cloud providersFamiliarity with real-world misconfigurations and how security incidents actually happen in the wildAble to reason clearly and communicate precisely about risk, exposure, and impactSelf-directed and comfortable working asynchronouslyNice to HaveExperience with cloud security tooling (e.g., AWS Security Hub, GCP Security Command Center, Defender for Cloud)Background in penetration testing, red teaming, or cloud incident responseFamiliarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK for Cloud, CIS Benchmarks, or CSA CCMCertifications such as AWS Security Specialty, CCSP, or similarWhy Join UsWork directly on frontier AI systems with top research labsFully remote and flexible — work on your own scheduleFreelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaborationMake a meaningful impact on how AI understands cloud securityPotential for ongoing work and contract extension
