pdflatex produces the same thing I believe, so I doubt that the HTML
exporter or MathJax is to blame. I imagine you are going to have to
find something more appropriate than an align`* environment. In any
case, you need some ampersands to tell it where to align. See e.g.

Not here, it doesn't: I kept the second one in my org file, and latex export
produces this partial output:
