About the job

About the role

As a Safeguards Enforcement Analyst on the account abuse team, you'll build and execute enforcement workflows that keep our products safe, with a focus on detecting and mitigating potential harm. You'll drive enforcement areas including access controls and identity verification, owning the policy layer: what we ask users for, when, on what grounds, and what passes. The work sits at the intersection of policy, operations, and regulatory exposure.

Key responsibilities

  • Set collection policy for identity signals: what we request, in which enforcement states, and what evidence reinstates access
  • Improve verification program health — accuracy, appeal coverage, and consistency of outcomes
  • Own access policy for hard cases, including geographic restrictions and reseller arrangements
  • Run the operational queue for access-control cases alongside contractor support, authoring playbooks and QA'ing scaled review output
  • Work with Legal, Public Policy, and Privacy stakeholders to keep our approach proportionate, privacy-preserving, and responsive to an evolving regulatory landscape
  • Coordinate enforcement consistency with third-party platform partners
  • Keep up to date with emerging AI policy enforcement best practices
  • Stand up graduated enforcement in practice — verification requests, conditional reinstatement, and appeal pathways that satisfy regulatory requirements for automated decisions

Minimum qualifications

  • Experience in trust & safety, integrity, or risk policy work
  • Hands-on operational experience — you've owned or quality-checked live enforcement queues, not only authored policy
  • Subject matter expertise in one or more of: KYC, identity verification, age or identity assurance, or verification program operations
  • Experience navigating evolving regulatory landscapes (including frameworks like the DSA and GDPR) as design constraints rather than blockers
  • Experience driving cross-functional initiatives with Product, Engineering, Legal, and Policy partners
  • Comfort using data (SQL or similar tools) to measure what's working and inform decisions
  • Strong written communication skills
  • Excellent judgment and the ability to make consistent, defensible calls on ambiguous cases

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience with graduated/tiered enforcement systems rather than binary ban models
  • Experience with geographic access restrictions, sanctions screening, or reseller/channel policy
  • Experience building or scaling a contractor review bench
  • A deep interest in AI safety and responsible technology development
  • Experience writing effective prompts for generative AI systems in a content review or enforcement context

Compensation & benefits

Annual Salary: $285,000—$330,000 USD. Anthropic offers competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space.
