Program Manager, Safeguards Policy, Enforcement, and Threat Intelligence

Anthropic's Safeguards organization builds the policies, evaluations, and detection and enforcement systems that define and hold the limits on how Claude can be used. Within Safeguards, the Policy, Enforcement, and Threat Intelligence teams work as one org: Policy Design defines what is and isn't allowed across harm areas, Enforcement detects and acts on violations, and Threat Intelligence investigates sophisticated misuse and emerging threats. As the org's program manager, you'll keep all of it moving: tracking the portfolio across all three teams, running the processes that connect their work to each other and to the rest of the company, and making sure the right people are aligned before decisions land.

• Own cross-functional program management for the Policy Design, Enforcement and Threat Intel teams, keeping workstreams across harm areas on track and visible to leadership
• Run the team's operating rhythm: quarterly planning, priority setting, status tracking, and a clear record of decisions, who made them, and why
• Coordinate policy work with partner teams across research, product, engineering, legal, and communications, so dependencies are surfaced early and nothing lands on a partner as a surprise
• Drive readiness for policy, enforcement, and threat intelligence work tied to model launches and product releases, including timelines, reviews, and sign-offs
• Own the process for the org's external publications, including blog posts and threat reports, from idea through drafting, review, approvals, and publication
• Identify risks, blockers, and resourcing gaps across the portfolio, and escalate them with a proposed path forward
• Build lightweight processes and tools that make the team faster, and retire the ones that stop earning their keep

• Experience running cross-functional programs in a fast-moving technical environment, with a track record of shipping on time across teams you don't manage
• Ability to bring structure to ambiguous work: breaking big goals into plans, owners, and milestones, and keeping them current as priorities shift
• Strong written communication, including clear status updates, decision records, and summaries for executive audiences
• Experience managing review and approval processes with multiple stakeholders, such as publications, launches, or policy releases
• Judgment about when a process helps and when it's overhead, and a bias toward the lightest process that works
• Comfort working on sensitive topics and holding high standards for confidentiality

• Program management experience in trust & safety, product policy, enforcement operations, threat intelligence, or AI safety
• Familiarity with how AI models are developed and launched, and how policy, enforcement, and threat intelligence work plug into that cycle
• Experience coordinating external publications, research releases, or public communications
• Experience using AI tools, including agentic tools, to automate tracking, reporting, and other recurring program work
