Anthropic The Engineering Manager, Integrity and Attestation at Anthropic leads the team responsible for cryptographically verifying build artifacts, model weights, and machines to ensure system integrity. The role involves setting the team's charter, practices, and priorities while partnering with infrastructure, data center, and hardware teams.

Responsibilities

Own the integrity roadmap: threat model from silicon and firmware up through the operating system and workloads, decide what to build, and deliver it
Be able to reason about the design and implementation of remote attestation, measured and verified boot, hardware roots of trust (TPM, SPDM), machine identity, and the reference values that define known-good
Make attestation the default path, so machines receive credentials and join clusters only after proving their firmware, system software, and security configuration, with no human in the loop
Build provenance for what we deploy: signed build artifacts and model weights, independent verification, and tamper-evident transparency logs
Lead the protection of sensitive data in use and at rest, including encryption and the chokepoints that control access to it
Secure the server management plane across every site: scoped and audited access to baseboard management controllers and management of per-device credentials
Make security repeatable as compute grows, so a new site or hardware platform inherits these controls in hours, not weeks
Join compute bring-up, data center, and hardware teams at design time
Define clear ownership with partner teams: when operations move to another team, your team keeps the security properties and can prove they still hold
Own the integrity evidence for our security goals and compliance: the invariants hold, and you can prove it
Hire, grow, and retain senior security software engineers; own their career development, and set the practices the team runs on as it scales

Required

Low ego, high empathy; has built diverse teams and has former reports who would vouch for them.
Experience managing infrastructure or security engineering teams, including hiring, developing, and managing senior and staff engineers
Has grown engineers into staff or lead roles, and experience with performance management
Created and maintained a high performing in hypergrowth environments. Kept a team intact and delivering through reorgs, charter changes, or leadership turnover
Experience owning a security or infrastructure domain end to end: setting multi-year strategy, delivering year-long cross-organizational work with little direction, and answering to executives for its risk and tradeoffs
An appreciation for distributed systems and properties beyond security, including reliability, efficiency, and maintainability
Scaled a team and its systems together through hypergrowth, where last quarter's architecture was already too small
Hands-on engineering in at least one of: platform security, secure boot and firmware, hardware roots of trust, confidential computing, or software supply chain integrity
Threat modeling and risk assessment for systems that span hardware and software, with strong security judgment and pragmatism
Comfortable leading through ambiguity with multiple partner teams and outside vendors, where you don't control the hardware or the schedule
You may be a good fit if you have:
At least 5+ years managing engineering teams and 8+ years hands-on in platform, infrastructure, or security engineering
