Job description

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

Developers and enterprises build on Claude through the Claude Platform. Our models are getting exponentially more intelligent, and our APIs and developer tools need to evolve just as quickly so developers can take advantage of that intelligence safely.

We're hiring Engineering Managers to lead teams that build these APIs and developer tools. We are shipping APIs and infrastructure for building and running agents in production. These APIs ship alongside SDKs, docs, and tooling that developers (and agents!) utilize in order to build high quality integrations. These abstractions are backed by our identity, verification, and trust platform, which lets us scale access to Claude responsibly.

Key responsibilities

• Lead a team of engineers to ship high quality work quickly, owning planning, prioritization, delivery, and operational health


• Partner with product to set your team's roadmap, and bring a strong point of view on what developers need


• Talk to customers directly and turn what you learn into engineering priorities


• Guide API design and architecture decisions for distributed systems that have to stay reliable as usage grows


• Work closely with Research, Safeguards, Security, and go-to-market teams to bring new model capabilities to developers safely


• Recruit, coach, and grow strong engineers

Minimum qualifications

• You have experience managing high-performing software engineering teams shipping developer products, including hiring, coaching, and performance management


• You're product-minded and customer-oriented. You care about who uses what your team builds, and you've shaped roadmaps alongside product partners


• You've built and scaled distributed systems in production, and you have the technical depth required to guide architecture and API design


• You've led teams that ship quickly and hold a high quality bar


• You collaborate well across functions and can align teams you don't manage


• You care about Anthropic's mission and about developing AI safely

Preferred qualifications

• Experience building agent infrastructure or products on top of LLMs


• Experience with identity, verification, access control, or trust and safety systems
