Responsibilities

We build the foundational primitives that accelerate product development across Anthropic, and own infrastructure and systems that teams depend on to ship reliably and at scale - either internally or by hundreds of thousands of external global users and companies at all stages.

This is a role for engineers who love working on hard infrastructure problems, and building systems that are reliable, scalable, and elegant.

You'll help define performance quality and standard for the company, power the next gen of LLM-first products, and redefine best-in-class developer experience.

This flexible approach allows us to match talented engineers with the platform efforts where they'll have the greatest impact and growth potential.

Platform Acceleration:

You'll architect and optimize the critical development infrastructure that powers our AI product development, including dev environments, observability, and CI/CD pipelines.
