Aufgaben

As a Cyber & AI Risk Analyst, you will play a critical role in strengthening Alpaca’s security, compliance, and AI risk posture across the organization. Reporting to the Cyber GRC Lead, you will support the identification, assessment, and documentation of cybersecurity and AI-related risks that impact our infrastructure, products, trading systems, and internal operations.

We’re looking for someone curious, organized, and eager to grow.

If you enjoy learning how technical systems work, translating risk into clear language, and building structured programs from the ground up, then this role is for you.
