The role
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
Anthropic is building the platform security foundation for the infrastructure that trains and serves frontier models. This role owns Dynamic Root of Trust for Measurement (DRTM) across that fleet: bringing it up on x86 and ARM, building the attestation and isolation properties it makes possible, and hardening the parts of the platform that DRTM alone does not cover.
The work sits at the lowest layers of the stack: firmware, bootloaders, kernel, and the silicon features underneath them. It is also unusually public. We expect the DRTM work done here to land upstream, and the person in this role will be a visible participant in the Linux and firmware communities rather than a consumer of them.
Security carries the same design weight as performance and scalability at datacenter scale. You will partner closely with our firmware security, hardware, and OS hardening engineers, and directly with vendor and OEM partners whose DRTM implementations we depend on.
Key responsibilities
DRTM adoption and integration:
• Own adoption and integration of DRTM hardware security features across Anthropic infrastructure, on both x86 and ARM platforms
• Implement attestation services and the additional security and privacy capabilities that DRTM presence enables
• Design and implement a bootloader-agnostic solution for initiating and relaunching DRTM sessions
• Investigate further hardening of existing DRTM solutions: PPAM to isolate SMM on x86, VMM features to isolate UEF
