  • Find the gaps between an acquired environment and Anthropic's security model, rate them, and build the mitigations into the integration plan
  • Define the technical integration plan and its requirements: what moves, where it lands, in what order, and what has to be ready on day one

  • Work with Business Technology, Client Platform, Corporate Network, IT Operations, and Security on their parts of each integration

  • Working knowledge of endpoint management and security concepts
  • Ability to understand an unfamiliar IT environment quickly and deliver a prioritized view of risk to non-specialists
