Security Operations Analyst

About The Job

At Alignerr, we partner with the world’s leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models.

We’re building and evaluating advanced AI systems that reason through security incidents, alerts, and investigations in order to better mirror real-world response environments. As a Security Operations Analyst, you will work with realistic SOC scenarios to ensure AI outputs reflect how analysts actually detect, triage, and respond to threats.

What You’ll Do

• Analyze incident and alert scenarios to understand what is happening and why it matters
• Classify severity, determine root causes, and recommend appropriate response actions
• Review detection logic and investigation workflows
• Help validate AI outputs so they align with how security analysts work in practice

What We’re Looking For

• 2+ years in SOC, incident response, or security operations roles
• Familiarity with SIEM platforms, alert triage, and investigation workflows
• Ability to distinguish true security signals from background noise and false positives
