Anthropic - Staff / Senior Physical Security Systems Engineer
Requirements
• Have designed or specified physical security systems (perimeter barriers, intrusion detection, video, security lighting) for campus-scale sites: multiple buildings, a secured perimeter, many detection zones • Read and produce construction documents (site plans, civil and electrical drawings, device schedules, submittals) using standard design and markup tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, or Bluebeam, and find what is missing as readily as what is wrong • Write performance requirements that are testable: each states what must be true, how it will be verified, and what evidence shows it • Have run commissioning and acceptance tests against performance criteria and rejected work that did not meet them • Derive requirements from a threat basis rather than a product catalog: you can say which adversary a control stops and where the next weakest point is • Have owned an engineering domain where you set the approach, chose what applied to each site, worked directly with vendors, and answered for the result • Experience carrying a physical security design from construction documents through construction to acceptance testing • Experience engineering the security scope of colocation or partner-delivered facilities • Working knowledge of published standards for standoff, hostile vehicle mitigation, and intrusion detection zoning • Photometric and video quality measurement experience • Control room, AV, or network design experience: console layouts, video wall systems, resilient communications • Experience using AI-assisted tooling for drafting and review as a core part of your workflow • 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. • Location-based hybrid policy: • Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But 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. • Visa sponsorship: • We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day.

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! • 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.

Responsibilities
• Produce a vendor-ready design package for perimeter barriers and hostile vehicle mitigation, intrusion detection and its zoning, video coverage, security lighting matched to camera performance, and penetration protection: performance specifications, typical details and reference drawings, and device and zone schedules, written so a design firm can build to them and a test can prove them
Benefits
• Define the per-site engineering basis: which requirements apply to a site based on its risk profile and the threats it faces, with compensating controls and documented deviations • Define the per-site engineering basis: • Write the acceptance criteria and test methods: the verification method behind each requirement and the evidence a site must produce to pass acceptance • Write the acceptance criteria and test methods: • Set standoff, structural hardening, and site layout criteria for new designs, tied to the threat basis they derive from • Set standoff, structural hardening, and site layout criteria • Run field verification: commissioning and acceptance testing of perimeter, detection, video, and lighting against performance criteria (detection coverage tests, photometric measurements, video quality checks) • Run field verification: • Write the operational and design requirements for security operations control rooms: console layout, wall versus workstation content, supervisor placement; room network, power, backup, and resilient communications to the team's segmentation and hardening baseline • Write the operational and design requirements for security operations control rooms: • Own control room acceptance: factory and site acceptance criteria written before the build, then accept or reject delivered systems (video wall, consoles, cabling, fit-out) against them • Own control room acceptance:
