About Anthropic
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.
About the role:
As an Applied AI team member at Anthropic, you will be a cybersecurity specialist working alongside our enterprise account teams to help the world’s largest organizations use Claude to secure the systems and software they build and run. You’ll combine deep security expertise with customer-facing skills to help customers along their cybersecurity journey with Claude, wherever they are starting from, and wherever they want to go.
Enterprise security teams are at very different stages with AI: some are running their first experiments, others are ready to put Claude to work across their security program. They also span every kind of organization, each with its own priorities: regulated industries like financial services, insurance, and healthcare; strategic accounts like semiconductors, focused on protecting IP, securing industrial control systems, and handling export controls; and digital natives and public sector agencies with their own threat models. You’ll meet customers where they are, help identify where Claude can take on meaningful security work, and guide them from early pilots to lasting, production security workloads. Along the way, you’ll help security leaders explain the value of this work in terms their executives care about.
Working closely with our Sales, Product, Research and Engineering teams, you’ll guide customers from technical discovery through deployment, and you’ll work with the partners in the security ecosystem — ISVs, systems integrators, and managed security providers — that already serve these customers, enabling them where they own the engagement rather than competing with them.
Responsibilities:
Partner with account executives and account architects to understand a customer’s security program, identify where Claude can take on real security work, and translate that into a technical plan and a business case
Serve as the primary security-domain technical advisor to large enterprise customers, from discovery and initial evaluation through deployment, coordinating internally across multiple teams and stakeholders to drive customer success
Move customers from one-time code scanning to sustained security workloads: application security embedded in the software development lifecycle, continuous automated penetration testing, alert triage and investigation, and threat intelligence that answers “does this new vulnerability affect us, and where”
Build and maintain the reference implementations, harnesses, and evaluation approaches customers use to run these workloads with Claude, and help customers adapt them to their own environments and controls
Design and run workshops and hands-on sessions where customer security teams engage directly with Claude on their own code and workflows
Work with security industry partners on shared accounts, enabling them to deliver Claude-powered security outcomes and drawing a clear line between what Anthropic delivers directly and what partners deliver
Deliver technical content across the full range of audiences: deep dives with security engineers and appsec teams, and value- and risk-focused conversations with CISOs and executives
Define and track how deeply each security workload is adopted across your accounts, and work with our Product and Engineering teams on th …
