Vulnerability Management Analyst

About the Role

We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build smarter, more accurate AI systems — and we need experienced security practitioners to help make it happen. As a Vulnerability Management Analyst, you'll bring your real-world knowledge of CVEs, exposure management, and remediation workflows to help train and evaluate frontier AI models.

This isn't a typical security role. Your expertise becomes the foundation for how AI reasons about risk — and your fingerprints will be on some of the most advanced AI systems being built today.

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

What You'll Do

• Analyze vulnerability reports, CVEs, and exposure scenarios across infrastructure and application environments
• Classify severity, exploitability, business impact, and appropriate remediation strategies
• Review and evaluate patching, mitigation, and risk prioritization decision-making scenarios
• Generate, label, and validate realistic security-reasoning data used to train and benchmark AI systems
• Help AI understand the nuanced tradeoffs between theoretical risk and what actually matters in production

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in vulnerability management, security operations, or infrastructure security
• Solid familiarity with CVEs, vulnerability scanners, patching workflows, and risk prioritization frameworks (e.g., CVSS, EPSS, SSVC)
• You understand the gap between what a scanner flags and what actually warrants urgent action
• Analytical and structured in your thinking — you can clearly explain your reasoning
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on async, task-based assignments

Nice to Have

• Experience with exposure management platforms (e.g., Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, Wiz)
• Background in threat intelligence, red teaming, or incident response
• Familiarity with AI evaluation or data labeling workflows

Why Join Us

• Work directly on cutting-edge AI projects with top-tier research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, on your own terms
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and collaboration with a global network of experts
• Make a meaningful impact — your security knowledge directly shapes how AI understands and reasons about real-world risk
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
