About Anthropic
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.
About the role
We're hiring Cyber Evaluations Engineers to build and run the evaluations that measure cyber-relevant capabilities and safeguard robustness in our models. You'll design new evals, run per-release robustness testing, and dig into data on jailbreaks and prompt bypasses to understand where our safeguards hold up and where they don't. You'll also design many of the probes that detect cyber abuse in production and help shape the overall detection architecture alongside the policy team.
Key responsibilities
Design and run capability, uplift, and safety evaluations to assess cyber-relevant risk in new models
Execute per-release safeguard-robustness testing ahead of major model launches
Analyze evaluation results and communicate findings clearly to the team and to stakeholders
Design, prototype, and tune detection probes for cyber misuse
Work with the cyber policy team to turn policy lines into a layered, robust abuse-detection architecture, and measure its precision and coverage over time
Build and maintain internal tooling used to run and score evaluations
Collaborate with policy and engineering partners to translate eval findings into safeguard improvements
