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.

About the role

Since launch, the Anthropic API has seen rapid growth and adoption by companies of all sizes to build AI applications with our industry-leading models. We're looking for experienced leaders to lead teams within our Claude Developer Platform organization, which is responsible for the Anthropic API and developer experiences. The team owns the end-to-end flow for using the Anthropic API, including everything from documentation and SDKs to prompt engineering and model customization tools.

EMs currently hiring:Platform Tools

Increasingly complex businesses are building integrations on top of the Claude Developer Platform. The Platform Tools team has a goal to spend time with these customers, learn what they need in order to build the integrations they need to build, and improve the platform to support these use cases.

API

You'll work on shipping the world's most intelligent and capable APIs, partnering directly with research to bring frontier capabilities to developers. This team owns core capabilities including vision, tool use, and computer use. Your work will directly impact how developers interact with our most advanced models.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead a team in crafting an industry-defining developer experience for building AI applications
  • Collaborate with product and research teams to define the vision and developer roadmap
  • Create clarity for the team and stakeholders in an ambiguous and evolving environment 
  • Work cross functionally to design clear interfaces and processes for shipping products that span many teams
  • Take an inclusive, equitable approach to hiring and coaching top technical talent, and maintain a high performing team
You may be a good fit if you have:
  • 5+ years of experience as an engineering manager
  • A background in fullstack development - comfortable diving into various technology stacks frontend, backend, and at times deeper infrastructure.
  • A strong product mindset, able to navigate through ambiguity, and willingness to wear multiple hats (e.g. product management, design)
  • Experience recruiting, scaling, and retaining engineering talent in a high growth environment
  • Excellent leadership and communication skills
  • Demonstrated success in building a culture of belonging, and of product and engineering excellence
  • Startup experience, building products from zero to one
  • Experience building APIs and/or developer products for external developers
Strong candidates may also have:
  • Expertise in modern web development stacks (React, Next.js, etc)
  • Experience working on AI/ML products

Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. 

Location Preference: Preference will be given to candidates based in the Bay Area as this position is part of an SF based team.

The annual compensation range for this role is listed below. 

For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.

Annual Salary:
$320,000$405,000 USD
Logistics

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.
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. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links—visit anthropic.com/careers directly for confirmed position openings.

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!

Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
