Application Security Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

Your ability to spot what's actually exploitable — versus what's just theoretically risky — is exactly what the next generation of AI needs. At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI systems. We're looking for application security specialists to bring real-world security reasoning to frontier AI training projects.

This isn't abstract research. You'll be working with realistic scenarios drawn from the kind of vulnerabilities that appear in production systems every day — helping AI learn to think the way a skilled AppSec engineer does.
