About the Role

We partner with the world's leading AI research labs to build smarter, safer AI systems — and we need practitioners who know how compliance and risk management actually work in the real world. As a GRC Analyst, your hands‑on expertise with security policies, audit frameworks, and risk controls will directly shape how AI reasons about compliance. This isn’t abstract work — your insights will train and validate frontier AI models used by top research teams globally.

Responsibilities

• Review and analyze security policies, controls, and procedures for accuracy and completeness.
• Evaluate and classify real‑world compliance scenarios across frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST.
• Assess risk statements, control mappings, and audit‑style documentation.
• Generate and validate training and evaluation data that teaches AI systems how to reason about GRC topics.
• Apply professional judgment to identify gaps, inconsistencies, and best practices in security governance content.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in GRC, compliance, risk management, or information security.
• Familiarity with major frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, or similar standards.
• Comfortable reading and interpreting policy documents, audit reports, and control frameworks.
• Detail‑oriented with precise, structured written reasoning.
• 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 internal audit, third‑party risk management, or security consulting.
• Familiarity with regulatory compliance areas such as HIPAA, PCI‑DSS, or GDPR.

Benefits

• Work directly on frontier AI systems with top research labs worldwide.
• Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule.
• Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration.
• Make a meaningful impact on how AI understands security and risk.
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension.
