Job Summary

Lead the definition and validation of control requirements across global compliance obligations (SOC 2, ISO 27001/42001, HIPAA) within Anthropic's Security GRC, partnering with engineering to ensure automated, auditable, and continuously verifiable controls throughout the software lifecycle.
Location: San Francisco, New York, Washington DC
Workplace: Onsite
Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: Administration & Executive Assistance

Key Responsibilities

  • •Define the control framework and requirements for autonomous AI operators in collaboration with Security, Internal Audit, and Engineering, including change review and approvals, human-in-the-loop, and evidence collection. Assess implementations against those requirements.
  • •Pressure-test major infrastructure, system, and agent framework changes for control impact during design, before decisions become expensive rework.
  • •Set the compliance bar for home-built systems. Collaborate with teams to define what the internal system must provide from day one, such as auditability, segregation of duties, and change control over the tool itself.
  • •Define the criteria for where and when AI can operate, supplement, or replace a manual process or control, including the human-in-the-loop thresholds and evidence documentation.
  • •Establish the validation, evidence, and governance standards that allow AI-performed and AI-assisted processes and controls to withstand external audit and regulatory scrutiny.

Key Requirements

  • •Thrive at the pace of a hypergrowth company. You’re comfortable making calls with incomplete information and reprioritizing as scope shifts.
  • •Have supported technology control programs through SOX readiness or as a public company or with equivalent rigor (FedRAMP, large multi-framework SOC 2/ISO portfolios).
  • •Have genuine engineering fluency, possibly from an earlier engineering career: you can read code and Terraform, follow a CI/CD pipeline end to end, and challenge a design on its technical merits.
  • •Have programming skills in Python or at least one systems language such as Go, Rust, or C/C++.
  • •Have deep familiarity with developer platform, release engineering, or infrastructure control domains.
