Applied Scientist, Engineering

Job summary

Responsibilities

The Discovery team at Anthropic is organized around the north star goal of building an AI scientist – a system capable of solving the long-term reasoning challenges and basic capabilities necessary to push the scientific and technological frontier.

• Design and implement evaluation methodologies for assessing AI model capabilities relevant to engineering and applied science research and applications
• Design realistic tasks and training environments, and curate data from your field
• Develop and validate simulations and computational tools for your field, and calibrate them against real-world data
• Work with industry partners, manufacturers, and labs to build and test what Claude invents, designs, and engineers, and bring that real-world feedback into evaluation and training
• Think through how Claude's engineering capabilities can permeate the real world: where they can have the most impact across industry and research, and what it takes to get them…

What they're looking for

• Deep expertise and hands-on R&D or industry experience in an engineering or applied science discipline, such as mechanical, electrical, materials, chemical, aerospace…
• Experience with AI or machine learning, whether evaluating and training AI systems or applying these tools in your field
• Track record of taking work from concept through to a working result, such as a product, process, device, experiment, or tool
• Hands-on proficiency with the computational design, analysis, or simulation tools used in your field
• Basic programming proficiency, for example in Python
