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

  • Anthropic is looking for an empathetic engineer to build internal tools that enable and increase productivity for our employees, especially tools for security, authorization and automation. You'll collaborate closely with internal users to understand needs and create efficient solutions, often augmenting the tools with Claude for a greater experience and impact. On the Business Technology team, we are passionate about delighting and enabling our users through thoughtful and easy-to-use everyday solutions.
  • At Anthropic, we're building towards an ambitious mission of ensuring AI systems are safe and beneficial to humanity. Our team plays a crucial role in this mission by enabling our teams to work efficiently and securely at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Rapidly design, prototype and build full-stack internal tools for business-critical use cases
  • Consult with different teams to deeply understand their workflows and identify opportunities for improved productivity through engineering
  • Iterate rapidly based on user feedback to continuously improve our tools
  • Create intuitive interfaces that make complex tasks simple and efficient
  • Monitor system reliability, build for operational excellence, and lead incident response when issues arise
  • Champion best practices in API design, security, and user experience

You may be a good fit if you

  • Have 5+ years experience building production, full-stack software with a focus on usability
  • Have experience building and maintaining scalable internal applications and platforms
  • Excel at modern web development (React, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, Go)
  • Bring strong experience with cloud technologies and services (AWS/GCP/Azure)
  • Demonstrate a focus on reliability and iterative improvement
  • Communicate with empathy and strive to understand user needs

Strong candidates may also

  • Enjoy collaborating cross-team and working with users to gain alignment on requirements and functionality
  • Have experience implementing accessibility best practices to ensure products are usable and beneficial for all users
  • Have experience balancing trade-offs while maintaining security, privacy, and reliability standards
  • Have experience with Identity and Access Management tools
  • Coach and mentor other engineers
  • Have experience anticipating changing business needs to create technical roadmaps

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

  • 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.

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.
