Frontier AI’s Security Labs seeks a generalist software engineer with deep expertise in firmware/hardware security, applied cryptography, OS/hypervisor internals, formal methods, reverse engineering, or high‑assurance systems. The role involves owning high‑risk, high‑value research projects that run on a rapid, experimental cadence, building prototypes, testing them against real workloads, and translating findings into actionable architecture and policy. The team operates in a scrappy, ambitious environment, accepting that many experiments will not succeed but learning valuable insights for AI safety and security.

Responsibilities
- Own Security Labs projects end to end: scope the bet, build the prototype, run against real workloads, and bring to hand‑off or documented exit
- Stand up novel security infrastructure fast (isolated clusters, attestation chains, hypervisor and runtime work, verification tooling) optimized for learnings
- Find receiving teams early, bring them along while building, and hand them deliverables they can own
- Work embedded with research and infrastructure teams (Pretraining, RL, Inference, Compute) to test workflow resilience and document gaps
- Turn experimental results into short writeups that shape Anthropic’s long‑term security architecture and contingency plans
- Help pick the next round of bets and influence the industry toward better security
