Requirements
• 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. • Location-based hybrid policy: • 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. • Visa sponsorship: • 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.

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! • Come work with us! • Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco.

Responsibilities
• Own cluster-level deployment strategy — define how AI compute clusters are organized across the floor, how racks interconnect, and how cluster topology requirements translate into facility and deployment scope across a portfolio of sites. • Own cluster-level deployment strategy • Set rack interface standards spanning power, network, mechanical, thermal, and spatial domains, and ensure that every deployment includes the complete set of infrastructure required to bring a cluster online. • Set rack interface standards • Drive multi-threaded cluster bring-up programs across hardware, networking, power, and cooling — owning plans, dependencies, and critical paths from hardware specification through energization and turn-up. • Drive multi-threaded cluster bring-up programs • Partner with internal engineering teams — research, systems, networking, and hardware — to translate cluster requirements into deployable facility scope, and to derisk onboarding of new hardware platforms well ahead of delivery. • Partner with internal engineering teams • Lead external partner execution with developers, engineering firms, OEMs, and construction teams, driving technical reviews, deviation management, and handoffs that keep deployments on schedule and within specification. • Lead external partner execution • Improve cluster turn-up reliability and repeatability — identify systemic gaps in deployment scope, tooling, and partner interfaces, and drive durable fixes that reduce time-to-serve for new capacity. • Improve cluster turn-up reliability and repeatability • Define and track deployment KPIs — cluster readiness, schedule adherence, scope completeness, time-to-first-packet — and use historical trends to forecast risk and inform capacity planning. • Define and track deployment KPIs • Coordinate cross-functional readiness across supply chain, security, operations, and construction to ship production-ready compute capacity. • Coordinate cross-functional readiness • Provide crisp executive visibility on deployment progress, tradeoffs, and risks across a portfolio of concurrent cluster programs. • Provide crisp executive visibility • Design cluster interfaces for durability — define rack and cluster-level interfaces that remain robust across hardware generations, so that facility scope and deployment models do not need to be reinvented every time the underlying hardware changes. • Design cluster interfaces for durability • Build cluster layout and BOM tooling — create and maintain the tools, templates, and data models that turn cluster topology and rack specifications into accurate floor layouts, deployment sequences, and complete bills of materials, replacing one-off spreadsheets with repeatable, auditable workflows. • Build cluster layout and BOM tooling • YOU MAY BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU • Have 10+ years of experience in hyperscale datacenter environments, with senior-level responsibility for cluster deployment, large-scale IT integration, or equivalent infrastructure programs. • Have delivered AI, HPC, or high-density compute clusters at scale and developed a strong intuition for the constraints that govern cluster deployment — interconnect reach, adjacency, power density, and thermal limits. • Can operate fluently across the boundary between IT hardware and facility infrastructure, and have set interface standards that held up across multiple hardware generations and sites. • Have led cross-functional programs with both internal engineering teams and external developers, engineering firms, and OEM partners, and are effective at driving alignment across organizational levels. • Combine strong systems thinking with execution discipline — comfortable zooming from cluster topology and portfolio strategy down to the specific interface detail that will otherwise become a field issue. • Communicate clearly with technical and executive audiences, and can distill complex, multi-disciplinary programs into decisions and tradeoffs leadership can act on. • Thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where the hardware, the scale, and the requirements are all changing simultaneously. • Hold a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. • STRONG CANDIDATES MAY ALSO • Have direct experience deploying leading-edge AI accelerator clusters at hyperscale. • Have shaped reference designs, deployment standards, or cluster-level playbooks that were adopted across a fleet. • Have experience working across multiple geographies and understand how regional codes, climate, utility constraints, and supply chains shape cluster-level decisions. • Have partnered closely with hardware and system providers on long-term platform onboarding and bring-up. • Have experience building the program mechanisms — roadmaps, milestones, risk registers, runbooks — that make delivery predictable at massive scale.
Benefits
• 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. • $320,000—$405,000 USD • 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.
