Anthropic's Application Security team is hiring its first dedicated M&A security engineer. The role covers pre-close due diligence on acquisitions — coordinating penetration tests, threat-modeling targets, writing the risk readout for leadership — then post-close integration of acquired codebases into static and dynamic analysis, bug bounty and vulnerability remediation. Between deals, work shifts to core AppSec reviews and threat modeling for agentic systems. The posting asks for hands-on cloud and container security experience, threat modeling, production coding in Python, Go, Rust or TypeScript, and comfort with confidential, time-pressured work.
