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

We're looking for a senior policy leader to own how Anthropic governs access to its most sensitive cyber-relevant model capabilities. You'll consolidate our controlled-access framework, keep our cyber-related product policy commitments current as standards shift, and serve as Anthropic's primary point of contact with government and regulatory stakeholders. This role works closely with regulators, partners, and the broader coordinated-vulnerability-disclosure community.

You don't need to write code in this role, but you should be comfortable engaging deeply with technical material — probes, classifiers, and trusted-access programs — and translating it into policy that holds up under scrutiny.

Key responsibilities

Own Anthropic's access-requirements policy and lead consolidation of the controlled-access framework across existing and emerging access programs

Keep Anthropic's cyber-related policy commitments current with shifting industry and regulatory standards, and ensure they map cleanly to our technical safeguards

Serve as Anthropic's primary policy interface with government and regulatory stakeholders

Build and maintain relationships across the coordinated vulnerability disclosure, cybersecurity policy, and national security communities

Author and maintain reporting to partners and regulators

Translate technical evaluation and safeguard work into policy positions and external-facing stand
