Anthropic's Safeguards organization is hiring a Research Manager to lead the research engineering team for biological safety. The person would manage scientists and engineers, set the roadmap for capability evaluations, datasets, and classifiers that govern how models handle biological knowledge, and oversee red-teaming and production performance measurement. The posting asks for technical management experience, Python, ML fundamentals, modern biology knowledge, and familiarity with biosecurity frameworks. It is distinctive for owning the precision tradeoff between blocking misuse and not obstructing legitimate life-sciences research.
