Application Security Analyst

Application Security Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We're partnering with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, more security-aware AI systems — and we need experienced application security professionals to make it happen.

If you know how software actually breaks in production, how vulnerabilities emerge in real systems, and how to separate genuine exploitability from theoretical noise, this role was built for you. Your expertise will directly shape how frontier AI reasons about application security risk.

• Evaluate secure coding practices and the quality of remediation strategies
• Build and validate security-focused reasoning datasets that teach AI how to accurately assess and prioritize application risk
• Provide structured, well-reasoned written analysis that bridges security expertise and AI training needs

Who You Are

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in application, product, or software security
• Solid understanding of the OWASP Top 10 and common production vulnerabilities
• Able to distinguish real-world exploitability from theoretical risk with confidence
