Security Engineer Lead, Corporate Security

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>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.</p></div><h2>About the Role: </h2> <p>We’re looking for a Security Engineering Lead to own and drive Anthropic’s Corporate Security program. This is a player-coach Tech Lead Manager (TLM) role: you’ll be both the most senior technical individual contributor on corporate security and the people leader for a lean, high-impact team of Security Engineers. You will set the technical direction, write code and ship tooling alongside your team, and build the culture and processes that allow the team to scale.</p> <p>Corporate Security at Anthropic encompasses everything that protects our people, endpoints, networks, SaaS ecosystem, and corporate data—the full surface area outside of production infrastructure. The scope is broad and the team is deliberately small, which means you’ll need deep technical skills across multiple domains, strong judgment about where to invest, and a bias toward automation and engineering-driven solutions over manual process.</p> <p>You’ll report into Security leadership and partner closely with IT, Infrastructure Security, Detection Response, and GRC teams. This role is high-visibility and high-autonomy: you’ll be expected to define the roadmap, make architectural decisions, and represent Corporate Security across the company.</p> <h2>Responsibilities: </h2> <p>Technical Leadership Hands-on Engineering</p> <ul> <li>Own the security architecture, tooling, and controls for Anthropic’s corporate environment end-to-end, including endpoint fleets (macOS, Windows, ChromeOS), campus and office networks, SaaS applications, mobile devices</li> <li>Design, build, and ship security automation, integrations, and internal tooling—including leveraging Claude and LLMs to accelerate security workflows</li> <li>Define and enforce security baselines, hardening standards, and configuration policies across all corporate platforms</li> <li>Define what it means to operate safely in an environment where AI agents act more like humans than actual humans</li> <li>Evaluate, select, deploy, and operate corporate security tools (EDR/XDR, MDM, ZTNA, CASB/SSPM, email security, DLP, browser security, etc.)</li> <li>Drive vulnerability management for corporate assets, including patch orchestration, risk-based prioritization, and exception management</li> <li>Lead security reviews of new SaaS adoptions, corporate infrastructure changes, and IT projects</li> </ul> <p>People Leadership Team Building</p> <ul> <li>Manage, mentor, and grow a purposefully lean team of Security Engineers; set clear expectations, run effective 1:1s, and create an environment where engineers do the best work of their careers</li> <li>Hire and build the team as scope expands—own the hiring bar and pipeline for Corporate Security Engineering roles</li> <li>Balance your own IC contributions with the team’s needs; know when to go deep on a problem yourself and when to delegate and coach</li> <li>Foster a culture of operational excellence, blameless incident review, and continuous improvement</li> </ul> <p>Strategy Cross-Functional Partnership</p> <ul> <li>Define and own the Corporate Security roadmap, aligning investments to Anthropic’s risk profile and growth trajectory</li> <li>Partner with IT Operations to ensure security is embedded in endpoint provisioning, network design, and SaaS lifecycle management</li> <li>Collaborate with Detection Response on telemetry coverage, detection engineering, and incident handling for corporate-sourced events</li> <li>Partner with Infrastructure and Security Engineering teams to ensure security standards are consistent across all of Anthropic</l ...
