Lead, Frontier Red Team (Cyber)

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

As part of Anthropic’s work on the frontier of cybersecurity, we are forming a new team focused on steering the world through the next generation of cybersecurity. It is now clear that frontier AI models – Mythos and beyond – will have dramatic impacts on cybersecurity. This team will research the impacts of advanced models, beyond Mythos, on security – and publish the research and build + deploy the defenses the world needs to navigate it smoothly. We believe many parts of cybersecurity will need to be fundamentally reimagined for the age of powerful models.

What the job covers

• Be responsible for Anthropic’s overall defensive cybersecurity vision
• Hire and lead a world-class research team of AGI-pilled cybersecurity researchers and program managers
• Design an AGI cybersecurity research program that aims to secure the world
• Lead the team to execute on this research at the scale, speed, and quality of a frontier lab
• Work with other Anthropic teams, such as Training, Safeguards, and Policy, to address their biggest opportunities and challenges in Anthropic’s cybersecurity mission
• Identify field partners – maintainers, researchers, companies, governments – to do joint projects with
• Develop a strategy to publish and share research with the world for maximum impact; shut down and avoid low-impact research or research communication
• Translate technical findings into compelling demonstrations and artifacts that inform policymakers and the public
• Proactively identify critical strategic decisions for the company and the AI lab ecosystem, raise them, marshall resources to address them, and help the decisions be made as smoothly as possible
