Data Security & DLP Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

We partner with the world's leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models. Now we're looking for data security professionals who understand how real-world data leaks happen — and can translate that expertise into training materials that teach AI systems to reason about sensitive information risk.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your hands-on security knowledge to frontier AI development, working remotely on your own schedule.

• Classify data sensitivity levels, exposure paths, and policy violations
• Evaluate prevention, detection, and incident response strategies across a range of scenarios
• Generate, label, and validate data security cases used to train and evaluate AI systems
• Help AI models develop accurate, nuanced reasoning about how sensitive information is exposed and protected

Who You Are

• 2+ years of experience in data security, compliance, or security operations
• Familiar with DLP tools, data classification frameworks, and privacy or regulatory concepts (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA)
• Practical understanding of how data risk plays out in real-world environments — not just theory
• Able to clearly articulate security reasoning in written form
• Detail-oriented and comfortable working independently on task-based assignments

Nice to Have

• Experience with cloud security platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) or SaaS security controls
• Background in security operations, incident response, or data governance
• Familiarity with AI training or data annotation workflows
