Personnel Security Management Specialist

ABOUT THE ROLE Anthropic is a rapidly growing company dedicated to creating reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Our mission is to ensure that AI is safe and beneficial for users and society as a whole. As a Personnel Security Management Specialist, you will play a critical role in maintaining Anthropic's ability to support classified work with the U.S. government. WHAT YOU'LL DO As a key member of Anthropic's U.S. Industrial Security team, you will be responsible for managing the company's Personnel Security (PERSEC) operations, including clearance actions, contract support, terminations, debriefs, and training. You will act as a Contract Program Security Officer (CPSO) for classified contracts, handling additions, removals, and upgrades on contracts and working directly with cleared personnel, program managers, and government sponsors. You will also design, deliver, and brief security content to a variety of cleared stakeholders, and build and enhance workflows for PERSEC casework. In addition, you will use AI tools to automate PERSEC processes wherever possible, and take on special projects and fire drills as needed. You will also serve as backup to the Facility Security Officer (FSO) on Facility Security Clearance (FCL) matters to ensure Anthropic's continued compliance. WHAT YOU'LL NEED To be successful in this role, you will need to have extensive experience in end-to-end classified contract program management, as well as hands-on experience with DoD/DoW and IC PERSEC processes and terminology. You will also need to have worked with several different US government agencies, and have experience with collateral and SCI PERSEC processes and requirements. A strong understanding of FCL fundamentals and the ability to use sound judgment on ambiguous CI/reportability calls are also essential. WHY REMOTE As a remote worker, you will have the flexibility to work independently across time-bound, compliance-driven casework with minimal oversight. You will also have the opportunity to build trust quickly with a cleared population, program managers, and external agency points of contact.
