How we're different
We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.

Claude. The attack surface is unlike most AppSec work: multi-agent orchestration, sandboxed code execution, agents holding delegated credentials, untrusted tool output crossing trust boundaries — problems with little prior art and no off-the-shelf playbook.
The way the team works is also different. We use Claude as our primary tool across every part of the job: it drives our static analysis, drafts and fixes vulnerabilities as pull requests, performs first-line bug bounty triage, and assists threat modeling for design reviews. The human work is the judgment layer — system-level reasoning, deciding what matters, and building the next thing the model can't do yet.
This is a builder's role on a senior team. We hire engineers who ship production systems
and
clear a hands-on threat-modeling bar — people who can find the vulnerability but would rather build the system that finds them all. Every engineer owns a system end-to-end, and the team's work has shaped customer-facing product security — including Claude Code's security review tooling, its security guidance plugin, sandboxing, and auto mode.
Key responsibilities:
Design, build, and operate Claude-powered security systems — LLM-driven code analysis, automated vulnerability remediation, AI-assisted threat modeling — and own one or more of them end-to-end, including the cross-functional relationships that come with it
Lead secure design reviews and threat modeling for novel AI systems, identifying risks that don't map to existing frameworks
Evolve a public bug bounty program where automation handles routine triage and root-cause work, and engineers handle escalations and corner cases
Partner with Product, Infrastructure, and Research teams as an embedded security owner — consulting on launches, shaping architecture, and influencing decisions where security is the constraint
Share an operational on-run rotation with the rest of the team — bounty escalations, incident response, and launch consults on systems serving Claude in production
Minimum qualifications:
Hands-on application and infrastructure security experience, including cloud and containerized environments
Production-quality coding ability in at least one of Python, Go, Rust, or TypeScript, with a track record of building durable systems rather than one-off scripts
Practical threat-modeling and vulnerability-identification skills — you've found and reasoned about real bugs in real systems, even if breaking isn't your primary mode
Demonstrated ability to operate with high autonomy and ambiguity — comfortable being handed a problem and a lot of latitude rather than a spec
Clear technical communication with both engineers and leadership
Preferred qualifications:
7+ years in application security, security engineering, or security-focused software engineering
Already use LLMs as a core part of how you work, with opinions about where they help and where they don't
Experience securing agentic, code-execution, or LLM-integrated systems specifically
Prior ownership of a bug bounty program, vulnerability disclosure program, or vulnerability-management infrastructure at scale
Background building security automation or developer-facing security tooling
Offensive security or penetration testing experience
Representative projects
An increasingly autonomous vulnerability pipeline — LLM-driven code analysis finds the issue, scores it for real exploitability, and opens the fix PR, with humans as the review step rather than the author
Bug bounty operations where Claude handles first-line triage and drafting, and engineers focus on the reports that actually need judgment
AI-assisted threat modeling that generates intake questions, drafts the model, and recommends which design reviews need a human in the room
Automated dependency vulnerability remediation across Anthropic's codebase
The company-wide vulnerability dashboard and SLA enforcement layer every engineering team works against
Threat models and security architecture for agentic product surfaces — code execution sandboxing, agent identity and delegated auth, tool-use boundaries

How we're different
We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.

We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.
We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.
World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.
Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.
*Titles posted to our careers page are updated regularly to best advertise the role and expected seniority, but internally we have a flat titling system with two types of titles: one for individual contributors and one for people managers.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Building general world models — systems that understand and simulate reality across tasks, modalities, and domains — demands training data that is as rich and varied as the real world itself. We’re looking for Research Engineers to own the data behind our models: what they learn from, how well they learn it, and what new capabilities that unlocks. You will design datasets, run modeling experiments, and build the infrastructure to generate and curate data at scale — directly shaping what our models can do, with applications ranging from creative tools to robotics.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design multimodal, multitask datasets that teach world models new capabilities — deciding what data to collect, generate, or curate and measuring its effect on model behavior
- Run controlled training experiments to understand how data composition drives model performance across tasks and domains
- Build and operate large-scale pipelines for synthetic data generation, filtering, and quality control
- Define evaluations and benchmarks that measure whether our models are actually improving at the things that matter
- Partner with product and creative teams to translate target behaviors and capabilities into concrete data strategies
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- 4+ years of experience in machine learning, bonus points for data-centric approaches
- Experience with large multimodal datasets and generative models (video, image, or multimodal)
- Deep intuition for how data composition and quality translate to model capabilities
- Comfort working across the full research stack: data analysis, dataset creation, model training, evaluation, and back again
- Proficiency with at least one ML framework (e.g. PyTorch, JAX) and distributed compute tools (e.g. Ray, Kubernetes)
- Excitement about building AI that simulates the world

About the role:
We are looking for Research Engineers to help us redesign how Claude interacts with external data sources. Many of the paradigms for how data and knowledge bases are organized assume human consumers and constraints. This is no longer true in a world of LLMs! Your job will be to design new architectures for how information is organized, and train language models to optimally use those architectures.
Responsibilities:
Designing and implementing from scratch new information architecture strategies
Performing finetuning and reinforcement learning to teach language models how to interact with new information architectures
Building “hard” knowledge base eval sets to help identify failure modes of how language models work with external data
Designing and evaluating advanced agentic search capabilities.
You may be a good fit if you:
Are a very experienced Python programmer who can quickly produce reliable, high quality code that your teammates love using
Have good machine learning research experience
Have experience developing software that utilizes Large Language Models such as Claude
Are results-oriented, with a bias towards flexibility and impact
Pick up slack, even if it goes outside your job description
Enjoy pair programming (we love to pair!)
Want to partner with world-class ML researchers to develop new LLM capabilities
Care about the societal impacts of your work
Have clear written and verbal communication
Strong candidates will also have experience with:
Collaborating with product teams to quickly prototype and deliver innovative solutions
Building complex agentic systems that utilize LLMs

How we're different
We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
Come work with us!
Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.

Who We're Looking For
A year ago, reliably working agentic systems barely existed. Nobody has a decade of experience here. So we're not screening for a resume template — we're looking for strong people from varied backgrounds who learn fast, thrive in ambiguity, and can show us what they've built, broken, and understood.
Experience We Find Useful
You don't need all of this. But you need enough to make a case.
- Foundation models: training, new architectures, RL, reward modeling, scaling
- Evaluation: benchmarks, eval loops, quality measurement, LLM-as-judge, failure analysis
- Frontier topics: multimodal models, agents, tool use, test-time compute, world models
- Published research at ICML, ICLR, NeurIPS, EMNLP, ACL, or AAAI
- PhD in ML/NLP — or equivalent practical experience you can point to
- Public work: non-trivial AI side projects, interdisciplinary experiments, open-source contributions
- Full-stack research ownership: you frame the question, run the experiments, write the paper, ship the result
If you learned through building, competitions, or collaborations outside academia, that counts. We care about evidence, not credentials.
Who Thrives Here
- You don’t need a roadmap to start walking; you’re comfortable picking a direction and building the map as you go
- You believe research isn't finished until it’s shipped. You have a bias for impact over purely academic output
- You don't just ship code; you obsess over the why. You’re the first to question an approach if you think there’s a better way to solve the core problem
- You aren't satisfied with "the PM said so." You thrive on deep context and want to understand the fundamental logic behind every decision we make
What Working Here Is Like
We hand you unclear problems and expect you to make them clear. We value researchers who say "I don't know yet" and then design the experiment that finds out. We treat evaluation as a first-class research product, not a box to check before launch. Impact comes before publications though we support sharing work that moves the field forward. Your work should be visible. Flat structure, fast iterations, minimal process theater.
We believe in the power of in-person collaboration to solve the hardest problems and foster a strong team culture. We offer relocation assistance and look forward to you joining us in our Mountain View office.
The base salary range for this full-time position is $270,000 - $500,000+ bonus + equity + benefits.

About HumanSignal
Real-world data is the competitive edge in AI.
HumanSignal is a human data partner for companies building AI models and products. Our customers ship better AI, faster, because we partner with their researchers from real-world data creation to annotation to delivery.
We design and create datasets from scratch, recruit and manage the domain experts who evaluate model output, and run everything through our own platform, Label Studio, the open-source standard for data labeling and evaluation, used by over 1 million practitioners worldwide.
We specialize in the operationally complex: real-world data collection, multimodal pipelines, and multi-step workflows. Advanced ML and AI teams use our enterprise platform to run their own data factories, and our services team to extend their reach where in-house capacity runs out.
If you want to do work that materially shapes how the next generation of AI products gets built, we'd love to talk.
The engineers on our team are great. We want to make sure they have a manager who makes them better, and that’s the role.
We’re building across an open-source platform, enterprise software, and a managed data-services business that runs on our own product. We need to make delivery more predictable while giving engineers more ownership – not add another layer of approvals. You’ll help shape what we build, the commitments we make, and how the team works.
You manage the team directly: 1:1s, feedback, performance, promotions, and the hard conversations. You own delivery so that what we decide to build turns into shipped software on a rhythm we can count on. You notice when someone is blocked and help them get unstuck without making yourself the dependency for every decision. When someone is struggling, you address it early.
The part of this role we care about most is helping people become better professionals: better at scoping, estimating, making decisions, and owning outcomes rather than tasks. If your instinct when an engineer struggles is to take the work back, this isn’t the role. If your instinct is to figure out what they’re missing and help them develop it, keep reading.
You still write and ship code. Not because we need another full-time individual contributor, but because I don’t believe you can effectively manage this team if you’ve stopped building. You stay hands-on to make better technical decisions, work through difficult problems, and improve how the team builds. Your job is not to become the team’s busiest engineer or the person every release depends on.
You use coding agents in real work and understand where they help, where they fail, and how to verify their output. You make the team better by showing what works and helping people apply it – not by mandating tools or mistaking more generated code for better engineering. You can challenge architectural decisions, explain the tradeoffs, and help the team choose an approach it can ship and maintain.
What you’ll own
Delivery:
Planning, scoping, and shipping quality software against a roadmap you help shape. You make tradeoffs explicit and push back when we’re asking the team to do more than it can do well.
How the team works:
Enough structure to make delivery predictable, not so much that it slows a small team down. You remove friction, address recurring blockers, and improve how we use AI tooling.
People:
Hiring, clear expectations, regular feedback, growth, promotions, and exits when they’re necessary.
Technical judgment:
Staying close enough to the code and architecture to challenge decisions and support engineers without becoming the approval gate for everything.
The engineering response to escalations:
Getting the right people involved, making priority calls, and addressing recurring causes across customer, services-team, and open-source issues. You’re accountable for the response, not expected to personally fix every problem.
What we’re building
A ground-up rebuild of the annotation editor, with interfaces generated by coding agents instead of hand-configured.
Native evaluation of agent trajectories: trace ingestion, replay, and hybrid human-plus-model-judge workflows.
Continuous calibration: treating automated evaluators as instruments that can drift and need ongoing checks against human ground truth.
The workforce platform behind our managed services business.
Quality analytics across annotators, models, and programs.
Our own services team uses the platform to deliver customer work. You’ll see directly where the software helps, where it falls short, and which problems keep coming back. Part of the opportunity is turning that experience into better products, not just a growing list of one-off customer fixes.
Stack:
Python/Django, TypeScript/React, Postgres, Kubernetes. Coding agents are part of how we work every day.
What success looks like
Engineers take greater ownership and need less intervention. Scope and delivery risks surface early, rather than at the deadline. Customer commitments and product priorities are reconciled before they become emergencies. Recurring escalations lead to lasting fixes.
The team ships more reliably, people are getting better at their work, and neither depends on you repeatedly stepping in to rescue a release.
Who we’re looking for
You’ve managed engineers for at least a couple of years. You’ve hired and developed people, addressed underperformance directly, and made difficult people decisions when necessary.
Before that, you were a strong engineer for long enough to develop sound technical judgment. You can reason about architecture and tradeoffs beyond your own code.
You still build software and enjoy it. You use coding agents seriously and can explain, with examples, what effective use looks like.
You’ve shipped at a startup and know how to make decisions with incomplete information.
You say what you think early, give specific feedback, and don’t manage by avoidance.
You can balance long-term product work with customer deadlines, negotiate realistic commitments, and recognize when a services request should become a product capability, and when it shouldn’t.
Nice to have: experience with ML tooling, data platforms, or evaluation systems; experience managing a distributed team; frontend architecture depth.
How to apply
Skip the form. Email me directly at
michael@humansignal.com
with examples of your best work. That can be code you’ve written, a system you designed, a team you built, a document that changed a decision, or a product you shipped. I want to see what you’re proud of and hear why.
You don’t need a public portfolio, and please don’t share proprietary material. A description of the problem, your contribution, and the outcome is enough. A short note on what draws you to HumanSignal specifically helps too.
I read everything that comes in. If it’s a fit, I’ll reach out.
