Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) Analyst

Temporary

Alignerr

Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We're looking for experienced GRC professionals to help train and evaluate cutting-edge AI systems on real-world security, compliance, and risk scenarios. At Alignerr, we partner with the world's leading AI research labs — and your practitioner knowledge of how compliance programs, audits, and risk management actually work inside organizations is exactly what's needed to make AI smarter and more reliable in this space.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your hard-earned expertise in a new and meaningful way, without leaving your field.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Review and analyze security policies, controls, and procedures for accuracy and completeness
  • Evaluate and classify compliance scenarios across frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST
  • Assess risk statements and validate control mappings against industry standards
  • Generate and refine training and evaluation data to improve AI reasoning on GRC topics
  • Provide structured, precise written feedback that helps AI models understand nuanced compliance thinking

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in GRC, compliance, risk management, or information security
  • Solid working knowledge of one or more frameworks — SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or similar
  • Comfortable reading, interpreting, and writing policy and audit-style documentation
  • Detail-oriented with strong written reasoning skills
  • Self-motivated and able to work independently on asynchronous tasks

Nice to Have

  • Experience with data annotation, data quality review, or AI evaluation workflows
  • Background in security auditing, third-party risk, or vendor assessments
  • Familiarity with GRC tools or platforms (e.g., ServiceNow GRC, Archer, Vanta, Drata)

Why Join Us

  • Work directly on frontier AI systems alongside top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Your domain expertise has direct impact on how AI handles real-world security and compliance challenges
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
