Job summary

Responsibilities

At Anthropic, we're building AI systems that are safe, beneficial, and transformative. Our mission is to develop AI that benefits humanity, and we believe the most powerful capabilities emerge when we thoughtfully bridge the gap between research breakthroughs and real-world applications.

• Rapidly prototype full-stack applications that showcase emerging AI capabilities, shipping early and often to maximize learning
• Collaborate closely with research teams to understand new model capabilities and translate them into intuitive user experiences
• Work directly with internal test users and external partners to gather feedback, iterate quickly, and validate (or invalidate) product concepts
• Design and run structured experiments to test hypotheses, balancing creative exploration with rigorous evaluation
• Generate documentation and insights to guide successful prototypes toward full product teams

What they're looking for

• Deep specialists who can't adapt if their domain becomes irrelevant
• Engineers who've only succeeded in big-company structures with well-defined processes and long timelines
• People who are precious about their work or frame all past projects as successes
• Those who need clear roadmaps and get stressed by shifting priorities

Tech stack

• React
• Node.js
• Python
