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

Key responsibilities:

• Drive system card production end to end — own the timeline, the contributor list, the open-threads tracker, and the definition of done for each launch
• Coordinate dozens of contributors across Alignment, Safeguards, Frontier Red Team, Interpretability, and capabilities; chase drafts, resolve differences of perspective, seek ground truth, and run final document beautification
• Edit, and sometimes write, content; work directly with researchers to turn their results, notes, and plots into clear, scientific, non-marketing prose and maintain Anthropic's voice across sections drafted by many different people
• Guard accuracy and consistency; catch terminology drift, claims that subtly contradict each other, and discrepancies between internal communications and system card drafts
• Keep the system card aligned with related artifacts; track what's being said in risk reports, RSP disclosures, and other safety documentation so the system card stays consistent with them, and flag conflicts early
• Improve the process between launches; build and maintain templates, style guidance, contributor guides, checklists, and reusable section scaffolds so each cycle starts from a stronger baseline
• Pick up other research-adjacent operations and writing, such as internal research summaries, release notes, and documentation that helps research leadership communicate clearly

Minimum qualifications:

• Strong project management and execution skills; able to track dozens of open threads to closure during compressed launch periods with many moving parts and many owners
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate and influence without direct authority, building trust while chasing drafts and giving constructive editorial feedback
• Excellent technical writing skills; able to take dense, jargon-heavy source material and produce prose that is precise, honest, and readable by a smart non-specialist
• Comfort working closely with researchers; able to read an evaluation results table, ask the right clarifying questions, and push back when an explanation doesn't hold together
• Working knowledge of large language models at a conceptual level, including fluency with vocabulary such as pretraining, RLHF, context windows, evals, and red-teaming
• Data communication literacy; able to identify how a chart or table could be made clearer and more accurate
• High integrity and a genuine sense of accountability around producing documents that hold Anthropic publicly responsible for its safety claims

Preferred qualifications:

• Familiarity with AI safety, AI policy, alignment research, evaluation methodology, or the RSP landscape beyond baseline LLM knowledge
• Background in science communication, research publishing, or technical journalism
• A track record of shipping long-form technical documents: research reports, whitepapers, technical standards, regulatory filings, or science journalism
• Experience with safety, risk, or compliance documentation such as regulatory submissions, safety cases, security disclosures, or clinical/scientific reporting
• An eye for visual communication and experience shipping polished, on-brand documents
• Light scripting or tooling ability (enough to automate a formatting check or wrangle a spreadsheet)

Logistics

Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience

Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position

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.
