Identity & Access Management (IAM) Analyst (AI Training)

About the Role

Identity failures are at the heart of most modern enterprise breaches — and we need experts who truly understand why. At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. We're looking for experienced IAM professionals to help ensure AI systems reason accurately about how identity and access risks emerge, propagate, and get exploited in the real world.

Your hands-on knowledge of identity systems will directly shape how the next generation of AI understands enterprise security.
