Network and Infrastructure Security Analyst

About The Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more capable security AI — and we need practitioners who've seen real threats up close.

As a Network & Infrastructure Security Analyst, you'll bring your hands-on experience to life by analyzing realistic enterprise security scenarios, classifying incidents, and helping shape how AI understands and responds to modern threats. This isn't theoretical — your field knowledge directly improves frontier AI systems used by security teams worldwide.
