In the posting’s own words

As an Enforcement Analyst focused on Radiological & Nuclear Harms, you will play a critical role in protecting against the misuse of AI systems for radiological and nuclear harms. You will enforce our Usage Policy with a specific focus on detecting and mitigating these risks, investigating potential violations, and help continuously strengthen our safeguards. The work sits at the intersection of radiological and nuclear threat analysis and platform enforcement: you will read real model interactions and make fast, well-reasoned calls about whether activity is benign research or a credible attempt at harm.

What it asks for · 7

  • Hold an undergraduate degree in a physics- or nuclear-related field (e.g., physics, nuclear engineering, health physics, radiochemistry) and/or relevant professional experience in a related field.
  • Possess experience in Trust & Safety, content moderation, or policy enforcement at platform scale, including working with generative AI tools to refine and optimize content review and enforcement workflows.
  • Possess experience in utilizing AI tools to develop data dashboards for metrics collection in support of continuous improvement efforts.
  • Can analyze complex, ambiguous situations and make well-reasoned, defensible decisions under time pressure.
  • Are proactive and self-directed: you spot trends, dig in, and ship improvements on your own initiative.
  • Can maintain emotional resilience when working with potentially disturbing content over time.
  • Communicate clearly in writing and can translate technical radiological or nuclear concepts for diverse audiences, including both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Also a plus

  • Subject matter expertise in radiological and nuclear defense, security, WMD/CBRNE non-proliferation, or threat-intelligence.
  • Understand where real-world radiological and nuclear risk actually lies — adversary intent, special-nuclear-material and source acquisition, enrichment, and device pathways.
  • Proficiency in SQL and/or other data analysis tools to draw insights from large datasets and monitor enforcement workflow health.
  • Familiarity with IAEA safeguards, the NPT, special-nuclear-material and radioactive-source security, NNSA guidelines, and proliferation-pathway analysis.

What the job covers

  • Enforce Usage Policies with a specific focus on detecting and mitigating potential radiological and nuclear risks.
  • Take ownership of enforcement monitoring workflows for the radiological and nuclear harm area, improving end-to-end detection, investigation, triage, and escalation processes.
  • Monitor and analyze platform activity to identify emerging patterns related to radiological and nuclear threats (within the broader CBRNE landscape) that may require policy updates or interventions.
  • Design and architect automated enforcement systems and review workflows that scale effectively while maintaining high accuracy across a technically complex content surface.
  • Conduct thorough investigations of potential violations, gathering and documenting evidence to support enforcement decisions.
  • Proactively surface trends and propose improvements to detection methods and review workflows.
  • Partner with Engineering and Data Science teams to optimize detection models and automated enforcement systems for policy violations.
  • Partner with Policy and Threat Intelligence teams to understand potential exploits and contribute to risk-assessment frameworks, and partner with engineers iterating on safety systems.
  • Provide enforcement-grounded feedback on policy gaps, and handle escalations and time-sensitive situations related to radiological and nuclear policy violations.

How this page was made

An automated read of a public job posting, fetched August 25, 2026 and last changed by Anthropic on August 21, 2026. Every list above is pulled from the posting’s own sentences — nothing rewritten, nothing added, no judgment about the role or the company. Counts and seniority are read off the text by rule, so they can be wrong where the posting is unusual. The original is the only thing that binds. Openings close without warning; check the source before spending an evening on it.
