Infrastructure & Security Engineer (Platform)
Information security analyst job in San Francisco, CA
In this role, you will drive the evolution of our infrastructure and security posture. You will have substantial ownership over our technology choices and implementation for deployment, observability, storage, and security. You will identify, triage, and implement incremental improvements in all of these domains, working closely with backend engineers and internal and external auditors to develop appropriately scoped interventions. You will work with engineers to ensure that security considerations are baked into software development from the outset.
You should have a broad understanding of modern best practices around cloud architecture, data governance and infrastructure as code. You should approach questions of infrastructure and security risk with a sense of nuance and good judgment. You should be able to build consensus around your threat models such that the necessary consequences seem natural to other stakeholders.
In this role, you will need to be fluent in Python and Terraform (at least to start).
Company & Funding
We're building the world's largest long-term insurer, using digital money and AI to serve billions of people profitably. We want anyone, anywhere, to be able to save for their future, protect their family, and build wealth across generations.
We face a once-in-a-century opportunity to build a vertically integrated life (re)insurer. Our product offerings are globally unique, making it possible for us to scale our balance sheet, build modern systems from scratch, and then directly compete to win a market that is 3% of global GDP.
We've raised over $140M to date. Sam Altman and Lachy Groom led our initial raise, and they've since been joined by leading investors in AI, insurance, and Bitcoin, including Northwestern Mutual, Apollo, Bain Capital, Pantera, Haun, Framework, Fulgur Ventures, MS&AD, Mouro, Stillmark, and Wences Casares.
Our Bermuda operating subsidiary holds the the world's only license to issue life insurance denominated entirely in Bitcoin. It's also the only company in the world with audited financials stated in Bitcoin. (If you join us, you can expect to do a lot of things no one's ever done before.)
Engineering at Meanwhile
With the advent of ubiquitous AI tooling, the dynamic range in individual engineering effectiveness is only widening.
At Meanwhile, we're planning for a world in which small, tight-knit engineering teams (supported by a small, tight-knit platform team) own entire lines of business, and are compensated accordingly.
We're attacking a huge market with the leanest, most effective team in insurance. Where incumbents employ a thousand people, we think we can make it work with a hundred or a dozen.
We're looking for hungry ICs (and former managers who see the writing on the wall) interested in pushing the boundaries of engineering productivity in a vertically integrated, regulated organization.
We're growing quickly. You will fix million-dollar bugs.
On the business side, we hire for deep domain expertise, ambition, and the creativity to figure out the previously impossible. Because our engineers work closely with people from the business, they need curiosity, flexibility, an appetite for (and the ability to digest) complex context, and strong communication skills.
Our view is that ownership is taken, not given. You will be successful here if your work progressively builds others' trust in your ability to identify, attack, and solve larger and larger problems, including those that no one else has anticipated.
We believe that "code wins arguments," that prototyping is often the best first step in a design process, and that the impact of velocity is non-linear.
You are excited by putting up multiple meaningful changes, or writing thousands of lines of code, in a day (even though you know that deleting lines of code is more exciting than writing them, and that, occasionally, deep reflection is required in order to ship anything).
You aren't fazed by building systems that don't work out - sometimes, you have to throw code away.
Intellectual honesty is non-negotiable. You love to learn and to teach, to ask questions and to answer them, and to be transparent about your uncertainty.
You are eager to learn, with the rest of the team, how to work with AI tools, including agents, in order to move faster and ship better, more complete versions of your ideas. You will experiment with new ways of working, with the expectation that some of them will be unsuccessful, and you will teach others what works.
This is the most exciting time in decades to be a competent, technically ambitious engineer. We want to offer you the opportunity to see what's really possible and how much better you can get at your craft.

Distributed Systems Engineer: Secure Sandboxes
Information security analyst job in San Francisco, CA
Magic's mission is to build safe AGI that accelerates humanity's progress on the world's most important problems. We believe the most promising path to safe AGI lies in automating research and code generation to improve models and solve alignment more reliably than humans can alone. Our approach combines frontier-scale pre-training, domain-specific RL, ultra-long context, and inference-time compute to achieve this goal.
About the role
As a Software Engineer on the Supercomputing Platforms and Infrastructure team, you will build the next generation systems that power large scale AI research and deployment. You will focus on sandboxed execution environments, distributed systems orchestration, and performance optimized compute workflows. You will work closely with ML and Research teams and infrastructure teams to deliver both high throughput, scale, and strong isolation guarantees in a cluster environment.
What you might work on
Build highly scalable, highly performant, software that facilitates arbitrary code execution with strong isolation guarantees.
Design and build systems that allow our AI models to interface with machines in various modes, interactive terminal, GUI applications, etc.

Produce clean, documented code and developer workflows, and collaborate with SRE and security teams to ensure safe, reliable, and self serviceable compute offerings.
What we are looking for
Strong software engineering background (C, C++, Go, Rust, or similar systems languages).
Experience designing or operating sandboxed or isolated execution environments (namespaces, cgroups, container runtime internals), or strong interest in this area.
Experience building or operating distributed systems or parallel processing frameworks (scatter aggregate processing, worker pools, multi thread and multi process coordination, shared memory, atomics, merging strategies).
Solid understanding of storage and IO subsystems (NVMe, SSD endurance, write amplification), network performance, CPU and memory resource constraints in high performance compute clusters.
Comfortable working on low level systems (OS, threading, memory management, synchronization) as well as higher level orchestration or automation.
Experience with cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, Azure, etc.) including IaC tools such as OpenTofu, Terraform, Pulumi, or CDK is a plus.
Intellectual curiosity, strong ownership, and the ability to make tradeoffs in ambiguous environments such as latency versus throughput and isolation versus performance.

Annual Salary:$300,000-$405,000 USDLogistics
Education requirements: We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
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.
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!
