Security Operations Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build the next generation of security-focused AI systems. As a Security Operations Analyst, you'll bring your real-world SOC experience to bear on a genuinely novel challenge: teaching AI how expert analysts think, triage, and respond to threats.

This isn't a traditional security role — it's a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of cybersecurity and frontier AI, helping shape how AI systems reason through incidents, alerts, and investigations.

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 — and document expert reasoning Classify alert severity, determine root causes, and recommend appropriate response actions Review and evaluate AI-generated outputs to ensure they reflect how experienced analysts actually work Identify gaps in AI reasoning — false positives, missed signals, or flawed triage logic Provide structured, detailed feedback that helps AI systems mirror real-world security operations Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments

Who You Are

2+ years of hands-on experience in a SOC, incident response, or security operations role Familiar with SIEM platforms, alert triage workflows, and investigation methodologies Skilled at separating genuine threats from noise — you know what a real signal looks like Detail-oriented with strong written communication skills Able to articulate your analytical reasoning clearly and systematically No prior AI experience required — your security expertise is what matters

Nice to Have

Experience with threat hunting, malware analysis, or digital forensics Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, or Kill Chain Exposure to cloud security, EDR platforms, or network detection tools Background in writing detection rules, playbooks, or runbooks
