About Anthropic

About the Role

As a Technical Program Manager for Security, you'll drive execution of high-stakes programs that span security engineering, infrastructure, and cross-functional teams across Anthropic. You'll be responsible for the strategy, planning, and execution of technical security programs that enable Anthropic to meet its Responsible Scaling Policy (RSP) commitments while building towards a security posture that scales with our rapid growth.

This role sits at the intersection of Security Engineering, Security Compliance, Infrastructure, Product, Research, Policy, and more. This role demands someone who thrives in ambiguity, makes well-reasoned decisions under pressure, and can translate complex security requirements into executable programs with compressed timelines.

Responsibilities:

  • Own end-to-end security program execution for RSP security readiness– Drive security workstreams from requirements interpretation through implementation, coordinating across Security Engineering, Infrastructure, Research, and Compliance teams to ensure we meet RSP commitments on aggressive timelines
  • Coordinate complex multi-team deployments – Manage security control rollouts and migrations, like endpoint hardening and egress reduction that require careful change management across engineering organizations
  • Make real-time technical trade-off decisions – Balance competing constraints between security controls, research velocity, and operational feasibility during fast-moving program cycles
  • Build program structure for emerging security domains – Create program charters, establish roles and timelines, develop communication strategies, and define success metrics for nascent security initiatives
  • Partner with third-party partners – Manage security aspects of infrastructure partnerships, including contract requirements, relationship management, and security assurance processes
  • Lead stakeholder communication and executive reporting – Prepare regular status updates, deliver company-wide communications, lead program reviews, and ensure leadership has visibility into critical security milestones, blockers, and risks

You may be a good fit if you:

  • Have experience driving cross-functional projects, building longer-running programs, and interfacing with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Have experience executing technical programs that require systems and engineering-level knowledge.
  • Have a deep interest in and/or a willingness to learn about cybersecurity or regulatory compliance.
  • Have experience leveraging LLMs to automate workflows, improve operational efficiency, and develop novel solutions for complex technical and organizational challenges.
  • Have experience reporting on complex programs through data-driven benchmarks, including writing SQL queries.
  • Have strong interpersonal skills that enable you to influence without authority, build cross-organizational support, cooperation and action around security initiatives, policies and procedures.
  • Have a track record for being able to successfully organize, implement and manage complex programs and projects.
  • Are used to working through trade-offs, balancing competing priorities, and having your mind changed.

Deadline to apply: None, applications will be received on a rolling basis.
