About this role

As a Platform Security Engineer at Anthropic, you will focus on building the platform security foundation for AI infrastructure, specifically working with Dynamic Root of Trust for Measurement (DRTM) across x86 and ARM platforms. Your responsibilities will include integrating DRTM features, implementing attestation services, and collaborating with vendors and the open-source community to enhance security measures. This role requires deep technical expertise in low-level systems and offers opportunities for public engagement through technical writing and community contributions.

Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Anthropic as an employer.

What you need

  • Deep hands-on experience with measured boot and roots of trust: DRTM (Intel TXT, AMD SKINIT, ARM equivalents), SRTM, TPM 1.2/2.0, and the measurement chains built on them
  • Strong C and assembly skills, with deep Linux kernel and early-boot fundamentals (bootloaders, UEFI, ACPI, SMM)
  • A record of landing non-trivial work upstream in Linux, TianoCore, GRUB, or a comparable community
  • Comfort at the hardware/firmware boundary and with debugging: JTAG, serial, platform-level bring-up, silicon errata
  • Strong technical cross-functional leadership and direction setting, including with external vendors and OEMs
  • Clear written communication skills for producing specifications, design docs, and public technical writing

Nice to have

  • 8+ years in systems security, with at least 5 years focused on firmware, bootloader, and OS-level security
  • Existing maintainership or subsystem ownership in Linux, or standing in the TCG, UEFI Forum, or OCP communities
  • Confidential computing implementation experience: TDX, SEV-SNP, ARM CCA, and their attestation flows
  • Hardware roots of trust and attestation beyond the TPM: Caliptra, OCP S.A.F.E., SPDM
  • Memory-safe systems code in Rust

What you get

  • Competitive compensation
  • Optional equity donation matching
  • Generous vacation and parental leave
  • Flexible working hours
  • Lovely office space for collaboration

Worth weighing

  • Role involves significant public engagement in the Linux and firmware communities, which may require a strong commitment to open-source contributions.
  • No specific mention of remote work flexibility beyond a hybrid policy requiring 25% office presence.
  • The role's focus on low-level systems may limit exposure to higher-level architectural work.
