Safeguards Enforcement Analyst, Safety Evaluations
About the role
About Anthropic
Anthropic's mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. The team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.
About the Role
Anthropic's Safeguards team is responsible for enforcing policies, protecting users, and ensuring the platform is not misused. As a Safeguards Enforcement Analyst focused on Safety Evaluations, you'll play a central role in ensuring models meet safety and policy standards before and after launch. You'll run and monitor evaluations, drive mitigations when issues surface, coordinate the creation of new evals, and help build the processes and documentation that allow the team to scale this work over time.
This role requires someone who is detail-oriented, comfortable navigating ambiguity, and capable of coordinating across teams to break new ground and drive work to completion. This work is deeply cross-functional — you'll partner closely with policy experts, Safeguards engineering teams, and many other stakeholders throughout the organization.
Responsibilities
- Support model launch readiness by running evaluations, monitoring and interpreting results, and surfacing regressions or unexpected behavior changes to relevant stakeholders
- Partner closely with policy and domain experts throughout the evaluation lifecycle — from identifying risks and scoping the right evaluation approach, to coordinating creation of new evals and ensuring existing ones remain current with evolving policies, threat vectors, and model capabilities
- Work with cross-functional stakeholders to help manage evaluation outcomes, including interpreting results and driving mitigations where needed
- Think strategically about eval quality to build processes and eval paradigms that keep evaluations unsaturated, high-signal, and insightful as models improve
- Build out processes and frameworks for creating product-specific evaluations as Anthropic's product surface area expands
- Help design and scope tooling improvements that accommodate evolving eval needs and expand self-serve eval creation and iteration for non-technical users
- Write and maintain rigorous documentation for evaluation creation, execution, and interpretation as the team builds out eval tooling and processes
You May Be a Good Fit If You:
- Have experience in trust and safety, content operations, policy enforcement, or a related operational role at a technology company
- Thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
