IT Systems Engineer, Mobile 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>About the role</h2> <p>The Endpoint team (Client Platform Engineering) manages the laptops and handsets every Anthropic employee works on, plus the infrastructure underneath them. We treat the fleet as a distributed platform, not a collection of devices, and every piece of configuration ships as code through pull requests, CI, staging, and a canary group. Today the mobile side of the fleet is BYOD. This role exists to change that. You will design and implement a corporate-issued mobile device program (managed company phones and managed Apple accounts) in every region Anthropic operates in, and take it from early design to production.</p> <p>The team is deliberately lean and runs with high autonomy. You’ll define what a corporate mobile program looks like at Anthropic and own the platform decisions that get it there.</p> <h2>Responsibilities</h2> <ul> <li>Design the corporate-issued mobile device program: device standards, what we issue to whom, and how the program grows from a first region to everywhere Anthropic operates</li> <li>Own the global logistics of issuing hardware: procurement partners, regional coverage, spares, and refresh cycles</li> <li>Bring mobile configuration into the team’s config-as-code pipeline so mobile policies are reviewed, tested, and progressively rolled out like the rest of the fleet</li> <li>Build zero-touch enrollment: Apple Business Manager and ADE with managed Apple accounts on iOS, the zero-touch equivalent on Android, so a new phone works the first time without hands-on setup</li> <li>Own policy, compliance, and device lifecycle for the corporate fleet, from issue to wipe</li> <li>Build telemetry on the corporate fleet: which devices are checking in, OS and patch state, drift between reported and actual state</li> <li>Own managed app distribution for mobile, from app approval through update rollout</li> <li>Partner with Corporate Security on device posture, device trust signals, and travel devices for international trips</li> <li>Decide how corporate-issued and BYOD coexist, and own that boundary as the program rolls out</li> </ul> <h2>You may be a good fit if you</h2> <ul> <li>Have owned a global or multi-region mobile device program end to end, with 8+ years managing corporate fleets at thousands-of-devices scale</li> <li>Go deep on iOS device management
