Identity & Access Management (IAM) Analyst
<strong>Identity & Access Management (IAM) Analyst (AI Training)<br><br></strong><strong>About The Role<br><br></strong>Identity sits at the core of most modern security failures — and the next generation of AI needs to understand exactly how and why. We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build models that reason about real-world enterprise security, and we need IAM professionals who can bring that expertise to life.<br><br>If you've spent time working with identity platforms, diagnosing access control failures, or designing least-privilege architectures, this is your opportunity to put that knowledge to work on something genuinely cutting-edge.<br><br><ul><li>Organization: Alignerr</li><li>Type: Hourly Contract</li><li>Location: Remote</li><li>Commitment: 10–40 hours/week<br><br></li></ul><strong>What You'll Do<br><br></strong><ul><li>Analyze realistic IAM, SSO, and access control scenarios to identify weaknesses, misconfigurations, and privilege escalation paths</li><li>Classify permission issues and identity-related failures with structured, expert reasoning</li><li>Review zero-trust models and evaluate access design decisions for security gaps</li><li>Generate and validate realistic identity security data used to train and benchmark AI systems</li><li>Help AI understand how identity risk actually emerges and propagates in enterprise environments<br><br></li></ul><strong>Who You Are<br><br></strong><ul><li>2+ years of hands-on experience with IAM, SSO, or enterprise identity platforms</li><li>Solid understanding of RBAC, least-privilege principles, and access review processes</li><li>Familiar with how identity failures occur in the real world — and how attackers exploit them</li><li>Detail-oriented, systematic, and able to communicate complex security concepts clearly in writing</li><li>Self-motivated and comfortable working independently on async, task-based assignments<br><br></li></ul><strong>Nice to Have<br><br></strong><ul><li>Experience with cloud identity platforms (Azure AD, AWS IAM, Okta, etc.)</li><li>Background in security architecture, access governance, or identity threat modeling</li><li>Familiarity with frameworks like NIST, MITRE ATT&CK, or Zero Trust architectures</li><li>Prior experience contributing to AI training, red teaming, or security research<br><br></li></ul><strong>Why Join Us<br><br></strong><ul><li>Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside world-class research teams</li><li>Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, from anywhere</li><li>Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration</li><li>Contribute to meaningful work that makes AI safer and more security-aware</li><li>Potential for ongoing work and contract extension</li></ul>
