About this role
Role Title: Cyber Threat Intelligence SME
Role Type: Contractor
Location: Remote
micro1 is engaging Cyber Threat Intelligence SMEs to contribute to a leading-edge customer project focused on evaluating and mapping advanced cyber threat scenarios. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required, your domain knowledge is what matters.
Scope of Work
- Map cyber threat intelligence (CTI) cases to established taxonomies, especially within the surveillance and privacy evaluation domains.
- Author boundary cases illustrating prohibited surveillance, attribution, and intrusion-adjacent requests, helping delineate permissible and impermissible actions.
- Evaluate and grade submitted threat responses with special attention to source reliability, analytic reasoning, stated limitations, and actionable utility.
- Identify and flag instances of over-refusal, ensuring legitimate threat analysis is not unnecessarily declined.
- Document and clarify challenging edge cases involving nation-state operations and other advanced threats.
- Provide concise written and verbal feedback to support the continuous improvement of AI threat assessment capabilities.
Preferred Qualifications
- Substantial experience in cyber threat intelligence, particularly where nation-state operations intersect with advanced cyber threats.
- Expertise in distinguishing between legitimate defensive/analytic activities and impermissible offensive or surveillance-focused requests.
- Background in threat-actor attribution, APT tracking, or exposure to adversary tactics and techniques.
- Demonstrated proficiency in authoring clear, structured written content in English and communicating complex concepts verbally.
- Experience mentoring, teaching, or leading professionals in threat intelligence disciplines.
- Prior participation in AI system evaluation, red-teaming, or related quality assurance projects is a plus.
