IT Systems Engineer, Client Platform Engineer

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>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.</p></div><h2 class="heading">About the role</h2> <p>The Endpoint team (Client Platform Engineering) treats Anthropic’s device fleet as a distributed platform, not a collection of laptops.

The fleet spans macOS, Windows, and a growing mobile footprint.</p> <p>You’ll own that platform end to end: the infrastructure underneath the MDM, the configuration on top of it, the patching and software pipelines that keep thousands of devices patched and secure, and the telemetry that tells us what is actually true on every device. You’ll build zero touch provisioning that turns a sealed box into a productive machine on day one, manage rapid patching enforcement schedules while maintaining a good user experience, and build automation and Claude-driven workflows to eliminate operational toil. The role sits at the intersection of security and developer experience: working with Security teams on hardening, compliance controls, and detection and response, and with developer and infrastructure teams to make sure controls don't get in the way of getting work done. It also lays the groundwork for access decisions based on device trust.</p> <p>If you think of “100% compliant” as a claim to audit rather than a fact to report, you’ll fit right in. The team is deliberately lean and runs with high autonomy. You’ll help define
