About Anthropic
Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.
About The Role
Anthropic's Security organization protects the models, the infrastructure, and the people behind them, spanning platform and application security, detection and response, identity, compliance, corporate engineering and IT, insider risk, and physical security. The adversaries are well resourced, the assets are novel, and the consequences of getting it wrong extend beyond Anthropic. As Technical Recruiter, Security, you'll join the small team of recruiters who hire for that organization, owning full lifecycle recruiting for your searches and partnering with security leaders to turn ambiguous needs into clear search strategies. Security professionals are among the most heavily recruited people in technology, and earning their attention takes real domain fluency rather than a template.
Key responsibilities
- Own full lifecycle recruiting for a portfolio of roles across the Security organization, from intake through offer and close
- Run structured intakes with security hiring managers, translating ambiguous needs into scoped requirements, calibrated bars, and search strategies
- Build and maintain pipelines of specialized security talent, with an emphasis on passive candidates
- Refine security interview loops, take-home assignments, and scorecards alongside hiring managers, your recruiting counterparts, and Recruiting Operations
- Develop genuine domain fluency so you can hold a credible conversation with a detection engineer, a cryptographer, and a compliance lead in the same week
- Advise hiring managers with market data and candid calibration feedback, and influence decisions through credibility rather than volume
- Partner with Compensation, People Partners, and Mobility to structure equitable offers and guide candidates to close
- Handle sensitive role and candidate information with discretion, including for searches whose scope is confidential
Minimum Qualifications
- Deep full lifecycle recruiting experience, with substantial time supporting security, infrastructure, or comparably technical engineering organizations
- Ability to hold a substantive technical conversation about security domains such as application security, cloud and infrastructure security, detection and response, identity, or compliance, and to evaluate technical qualifications rather than match keywords
- Proficiency with an applicant tracking system like Greenhouse and other modern sourcing tools
- Experience partnering directly with hiring managers on intake, bar calibration, and interview loop design
- Sound independent judgment on candidate quality, and the ability to redirect a hiring manager away from pedigree and credential proxies toward the underlying competencies
- Genuine interest in Anthropic's mission and in the role a strong security function plays in achieving it
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience recruiting at a high-growth technology, AI, or machine learning company
- Working knowledge of the security credential landscape and clear judgment about where those credentials carry signal and where they do not
- Experience hiring for engineering, incident response, threat intelligence, insider risk, or physical security
- Experience improving recruiting processes, market maps, or interview architecture where they were thin or absent
- Comfort using LLMs to accelerate sourcing, research, and market mapping
The annual compensation range for this role is listed below. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
Annual Salary
$240,000—$295,000 USD
Logistics
Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience
Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position
Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
Your safety matters to us.
To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links—visit anthropic.com/careers directly for confirmed position openings.
How We're Different
We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills. The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
Come work with us!
Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.

Frame your leadership in AI research terms
Anthropic evaluates Technical Managers on their ability to lead technical teams in safety-driven AI development. Document your experience directing research engineers or applied science teams, not just software teams, before applying.
Verify your visa category before outreach
Anthropic sponsors H-1B, H-1B1 visa, and E-3 visas for this role. Confirming which category fits your nationality before your first recruiter screen lets you ask informed questions and avoids surprises during the offer stage.
Target teams where you have research adjacency
Anthropic's Technical Manager openings span safety, policy, and product engineering. Roles closer to research orgs face stricter specialty occupation standards under USCIS guidelines, so align your application to teams where your technical background is directly relevant.
Request LCA details before signing the offer
Your employer files a Labor Condition Application with DOL before your H-1B can be submitted. Ask Anthropic's immigration team for the prevailing wage level assigned to your role, since this determines whether the offer salary meets the legal minimum.
Build a credential file before the process starts
USCIS requires evidence that a Technical Manager role qualifies as a specialty occupation. Prepare your academic transcripts, any advanced degrees in computer science or engineering, and a clear narrative connecting your credentials to the specific responsibilities in your offer letter.
Use Migrate Mate to find open roles quickly
Technical Manager openings at Anthropic move fast and are spread across multiple teams. Migrate Mate filters Anthropic's active sponsoring roles by visa type, so you can identify the right opening and apply before requisitions close.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Anthropic sponsor H-1B visas for Technical Managers?
Yes, Anthropic sponsors H-1B visas for Technical Manager roles. The company has a consistent record of filing petitions for technical leadership positions, and its in-house immigration support handles the full process from Labor Condition Application filing with DOL through USCIS petition submission. If you're subject to the H-1B cap, timing your offer around the annual lottery window in March is essential.
Which visa types does Anthropic use for Technical Manager roles?
Anthropic sponsors H-1B, H-1B1 visa, and E-3 visas for Technical Manager positions. H-1B is the most broadly available option. H-1B1 applies exclusively to nationals of Chile and Singapore, and E-3 is available only to Australian citizens. All three require the role to qualify as a specialty occupation under USCIS standards, which Technical Manager positions at Anthropic generally satisfy given the degree requirements.
What qualifications does Anthropic expect for a Technical Manager?
Anthropic's Technical Manager roles typically require a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, electrical engineering, or a closely related field, along with hands-on experience leading engineering or applied research teams. Prior exposure to machine learning systems, safety research, or large-scale model deployment is a meaningful differentiator. Roles supporting research-adjacent teams often expect candidates who have moved into management from a strong individual contributor background in AI or systems engineering.
How do I apply for Technical Manager jobs at Anthropic?
You can search Anthropic's open Technical Manager roles through Migrate Mate, which filters active positions by visa sponsorship type so you can confirm sponsorship eligibility before applying. Once you identify a role, apply directly through Anthropic's careers site. The interview process typically includes a recruiter screen, technical and behavioral rounds, and a leadership assessment. Confirming sponsorship support with the recruiter early in the process saves time if your situation requires specific visa category handling.
How do I time my application to account for H-1B processing?
If you need a new H-1B, USCIS opens registration each March for the following October 1 start date. Starting your job search at Anthropic several months before March gives you time to go through interviews, receive an offer, and have your employer registered before the lottery closes. If you're already in H-1B status with another employer, Anthropic can file a transfer petition outside the cap, which removes the lottery dependency entirely and allows an earlier start.
