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.

External Affairs, South Korea

Seoul

We are looking for an experienced Seoul-based Public Policy expert to lead Anthropic’s policy engagement in South Korea. In this role, you will advance practical AI governance and support Anthropic’s commercial expansion by building strategic relationships with Korean government authorities, developing substantive policy positions and papers, and engaging in regular outreach to drive progress in AI policy and AI safety. You will draw upon established relationships with key policymakers and their staff to shape how Korea approaches AI regulation and safety during a critical period of governance development.

As part of this role, you will collaborate with a dynamic, geographically distributed policy team on a variety of projects, including analyzing policy proposals, drafting submissions to requests for public comment, planning and executing policy campaigns in Korea, and providing policy advice to technical colleagues. This is a foundational hire — you will be building Anthropic’s policy presence in Seoul from the ground up.

In this role, you will:

• Conduct comprehensive mapping of key Korean AI policy stakeholders and build strategic relationships with government officials, think tank researchers, and civil society leaders across the national and, where appropriate, sub-national governmental levels

• Brief a diverse set of policy and research actors looking to better understand AI safety and AI policy opportunities in the Korean context

• Convene diverse stakeholders and speak at policy events such as research announcements, discussion panels, or workshops on AI safety topics

• Analyze emerging legislation and develop Anthropic’s engagement strategy, including preparing substantive policy submissions and response documents

• Support senior colleagues in external engagements by preparing meeting briefs and taking action on follow-up requests

• Develop new programming and generate opportunities for Anthropic to regularly engage with Korean policymakers, think tanks, and non-profit organizations

• Collaborate with policy and technical teams to translate Anthropic research into concrete policy proposals, stakeholder education, and thought leadership opportunities tailored to the Korean regulatory environment

• Develop and amplify public submissions, responses to requests for information (RFI), and policy memos written by Anthropic to drive positive change in AI policy

• Partner with non-profit organizations and academic researchers to publish discussion papers and policy memos on how to enable responsible AI research and development

• Develop and execute a convening strategy, including workshops or panels that position Anthropic as a thought leader in AI safety and governance in South Korea

You may be a good fit if you:

• Preferred 10+ years of professional experience in government, technology, legal, and/or other policy-relevant environments

• Have a track record of effective, information-rich advocacy with Korean government authorities at the federal and/or state level

• Have experience analyzing legislation and engaging in regulatory processes

• Are energized by agency — you will be the first policy hire in Korea and will be building the operation from scratch

• Enjoy drafting and executing complex policy campaigns that move the needle

• Thrive when engaging with policymakers, civil society, and think tanks to translate complex technical topics into accessible and relevant information

• Excel at translating high-level vision into executable operational plans

• Have demonstrated an ability to quickly get up to speed on complex technical areas and policy dynamics

• Are deeply curious about frontier technological research and are eager to work closely with technical colleagues to translate new discoveries into policy outcomes

• Are fluent in Korean and English

• AI/technology industry experience (heavily preferred)

•

• Academic or think tank background in AI policy or related fields

•

• Familiarity with intelligence and security cooperation frameworks

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.

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.
