Job description

About the role

As an Enforcement Analyst, you will be responsible for reviewing content and executing enforcement actions across our products and services, with a focus on detecting and mitigating attempts to misuse Anthropic's AI systems for malicious cyber operations. Your initial focus will center on reviewing flagged activity related to cyberattacks, malware development, and offensive exploitation; however, this position may later expand to include broader areas of enforcement. Safety is core to our mission, and you'll help uphold policy enforcement so that our users can safely interact with and build on top of our products in a harmless, helpful, and honest way.

Important context for this role: In this position you may be exposed to and engage with explicit content spanning a range of topics, including those of a violent, technical, or psychologically disturbing nature. This role may require responding to escalations during weekends and holidays.

Key Responsibilities
  • Review flagged content and accounts to make accurate, well-documented enforcement decisions in line with our usage policies.
  • Detect and mitigate potential misuse of AI systems to facilitate cyberattacks, malware creation, exploitation tooling, and related harmful cyber operations.
  • Triage and elevate novel, ambiguous, or high‑severity cases to appropriate stakeholders.
  • Provide detailed feedback to the Safeguards policy design team on policy gaps surfaced through real enforcement scenarios.
  • Partner with Engineering and Data Science teams by surfacing detection model errors and quality signals from review to improve precision and recall.
  • Maintain high accuracy and consistency standards across review queues.
  • Keep up to date with emerging AI policy enforcement best practices, threat actor tactics, and the evolving cyber threat landscape, using these to inform enforcement decisions.
Minimum Qualifications
  • Experience in cybersecurity, including knowledge of offensive techniques, exploit development, malware analysis, or vulnerability research.
  • Experience performing content review, abuse investigations, or policy enforcement at volume.
  • Proficiency in SQL and/or Python for data analysis and threat detection.
  • Experience identifying emerging risks and communicating findings to a diverse set of stakeholders, such as Product, Policy, Engineering, and Legal teams.
  • Experience working with generative AI products, including writing effective prompts for content review and enforcement.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in trust & safety, abuse investigations, cybersecurity investigations, or threat intelligence in a technology or AI company.
  • Experience with large language models and an understanding of how AI technology could be misused for cyber operations.
  • Experience operating within abuse monitoring programs or enforcement review systems.
  • Understanding of the challenges involved in implementing product policies at scale, including in the content moderation space.
  • Experience working with government agencies, regulated environments, or information sharing communities.
Compensation

Annual Salary: $285,000 — $330,000 USD.

Logistics

Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience.
Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience.
Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position.

Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. If we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
