Job Description

Incident Response Analyst (AI Training)

About the Role

We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build the next generation of intelligent security tools - and we need experienced incident responders to help get it right. Your hands-on knowledge of real-world threats, alert triage, and investigation workflows will directly shape how AI systems understand and respond to security incidents.

This is a unique opportunity to take your SOC and IR expertise beyond the day-to-day and leave a lasting mark on frontier AI technology.

• Familiarity with frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK or NIST IR
• Background in cloud security, endpoint detection, or network forensics
• Prior exposure to AI evaluation or data annotation workflows

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects with top-tier research labs and security teams
