- Build realistic examples drawn from cybersecurity processes such as incident response playbooks, threat-hunting queries, and penetration testing write-ups.
- Label, review, and verify data across use cases including CVE categorization and SIEM alert triage.
- Share structured feedback on AI performance against cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST CSF, MITRE ATT&CK, and threat intelligence standards like STIX/TAXII.
- Work asynchronously with research teams to improve cybersecurity evaluation methods and rubrics.

- Ability to break down security operations into structured evaluation tasks with strong analytical judgment.
- Excellent written communication skills and a sharp eye for detail.
Preferred qualifications
