Details

Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. The People Products team supports that mission by defining the blueprint for AI at work — hiring, onboarding, teamwork, and promotions — and by building tools that shape Anthropic’s culture and people practices. This role works directly with Claude and internal stakeholders to prototype and ship AI-native products rapidly.

Responsibilities

  • Build full-stack end-to-end across the People Products portfolio.
  • Design and implement AI-native workflows: build tools, evals, prompts, and products.
  • Work directly with internal stakeholders (HR teams, recruiters, managers) to understand problems, gather feedback, and iterate quickly.
  • Make product and architecture decisions independently in a low-structure environment: know when to cut scope, when to ship, and when to ask for input.
  • Contribute ideas for how the team works, what it builds, and where applied AI can have the most leverage in people workflows.

Requirements

  • At least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
  • Experience shipping LLM-native features or applications and building LLM integrations in production.
  • Able to work as a self-sufficient end-to-end engineer: go from idea to production without needing a designer, PM, or architect to unblock you.
  • Comfortable engaging directly with internal customers, receiving feedback, and iterating quickly.
  • Experience making architectural and product tradeoffs under time pressure while maintaining a high quality bar.
  • Familiarity with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or prior experience building Claude/LLM integrations is a plus.
  • Background at an AI-native company or in a product-focused 0->1 engineering environment is a plus.
  • Experience with HR tech platforms such as Greenhouse, Workday, or Rippling is a plus.

Logistics

  • Location: Remote-Friendly (Travel Required) | San Francisco, CA. The company expects staff to be in one of their offices at least 25% of the time (location-based hybrid policy).
  • Visa sponsorship: Anthropic states they sponsor visas and retain an immigration lawyer to assist, though sponsorship success may vary by role/candidate.
  • Education requirement: Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
  • Annual Salary: $300,000 - $405,000 USD

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation and benefits.
  • Optional equity donation matching.
  • Generous vacation and parental leave.
  • Flexible working hours and a collaborative office space in San Francisco.
