Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.
As Safety & Security Counsel, you will serve as the first-line legal advisor counseling on the full arc of keeping Claude and Anthropic safe and secure: usage policy design and enforcement frameworks, safeguards R&D, misuse detection and response, sensitive escalations, threat intelligence, security incident response, product-related safety and security matters, and the company's safety and security-related regulatory and policy engagement. The issues are increasingly interdisciplinary and novel, and you will frequently be the one ideating and building a legally-relevant framework rather than simply applying one.
Depending on interest and experience, you will own and shape an ever-growing portfolio of issue areas across Safeguards and Security. You will also contribute to the team's capacity building efforts, including by leveraging Claude. You will work collaboratively with other legal functions on cross-functional initiatives.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced attorney who wants to do high-stakes, first-of-its-kind work at the center of responsible AI development and deployment, and to grow as a strategic product counsel and trusted crisis counselor in a fast-moving environment.

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses.

How we're different
We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
