Description

About the Role:

Anthropic sits at the frontier of AI development, making us a prime target for nation-state and advanced criminal actors. As a Threat Intelligence Engineer, you'll produce actionable intelligence that drives our detections, hunts, and defensive priorities.

Responsibilities:

  • Research, track, and report on threat actors and campaigns targeting AI labs, cloud infrastructure, and the broader technology sector
  • Build and maintain tooling and automated pipelines to collect, enrich, correlate, and operationalize indicators of compromise into our detection and alerting stack
  • Develop and execute intelligence-driven threat hunts across endpoint, cloud, identity, and SaaS telemetry, and turn findings into durable detections
  • Perform technical analysis of malware, phishing infrastructure, and attacker tooling to extract indicators, TTPs, and attribution signals
  • Partner with Detection Engineering and Incident Response to translate intelligence into detection rules, hunting hypotheses, and incident context in near-real-time
  • Curate and triage inbound intelligence from commercial feeds, open source, government, and trusted peer relationships
  • Contribute to threat models and risk assessments that inform security architecture and defensive investment across the enterprise
  • Build and maintain external intelligence-sharing relationships with peer companies, ISACs, and government partners

You may be a good fit if you:

  • Have 5+ years of hands-on experience in cyber threat intelligence, threat hunting, or intrusion analysis at an organization facing sophisticated adversaries
  • Have deep, demonstrable knowledge of specific nation-state or advanced criminal threat actors
  • Are a strong engineer with experience writing production-quality Python and building automation and data pipelines
  • Are comfortable performing malware analysis, infrastructure analysis, and log analysis
  • Have experience authoring detection logic and understanding what makes a detection durable vs. brittle
  • Can write clearly and concisely
  • Have an existing network in the threat intelligence community

Strong candidates may have:

  • Experience defending cloud-native and research-heavy environments
  • Prior work operating in a threat intelligence role tracking sophisticated or state-sponsored adversaries
  • Experience applying LLMs or other AI tooling to accelerate intelligence collection, enrichment, and analysis
  • Public research, conference talks, or open-source tooling contributions in the CTI space

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
