Anthropic's Finance Systems team builds and owns the infrastructure powering the quote-to-cash lifecycle, including pricing, billing, revenue recognition, and financial close. The team is building production-grade financial applications and integrations beyond the capabilities of off-the-shelf platforms.

This hands-on engineering role involves configuring and extending platforms including Zuora, Stripe, and Tesorio, as well as designing, building, and owning full-stack applications and integrations.

The work must meet SOX and ASC 606 requirements.

The role will initially focus on Anthropic's homegrown ledger application and integrations with Workday, NetSuite, Zuora, Stripe, Tesorio, and Salesforce. Future work includes self-service workflows, automated reconciliation, and operational tools for Finance.
