Anthropic is hiring research scientists or engineers for biological safety work in San Francisco. The role involves designing capability evaluations of frontier models in biology, building datasets for safety classifiers, training and iterating on those classifiers with ML engineers, and stress-testing them against adversarial production traffic. Applicants need strong Python and scientific programming, ML fundamentals, and deep modern biology knowledge — gene synthesis, genome editing, protein engineering — plus familiarity with biosecurity frameworks. The posting says deep ML research experience is not required; biological depth is the priority.
