Anthropic • San Francisco, CA | New York City, NY • 1d ago

About the role:

Anthropic’s Research Tools team builds systems that support our large-scale, distributed finetuning runs and improve the productivity of researchers. As a manager, you’ll support a team of machine learning and distributed systems experts to make these systems and tools highly efficient, support fast iteration on model development and research, and evolve the infrastructure continuously to incorporate new research advances.

Our Research Tooling sits at the intersection of almost every technical group at Anthropic. You’ll work with research teams to incorporate their innovations into our production finetuning pipeline, product teams to help us iterate quickly on customer-oriented model improvements, and infrastructure teams to make sure our training runs and data pipelines are as efficient as possible.

About Anthropic:

Anthropic is an AI safety and research company working to build reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our customers and society as a whole. Our interdisciplinary team has experience across ML, physics, policy, business, and product.

Responsibilities:

Prioritize the team’s work in collaboration with the technical lead, research teams, and product teams to support fast iteration on research projects and training runs.
Design processes (e.g., postmortem review, incident response, on-call rotations) that help the team operate effectively.
Coach and support your reports to understand and pursue their professional growth.
Run the team’s recruiting efforts efficiently, ensuring we can grow as quickly as we need through a period of rapid growth.

You may be a good fit if you:

Believe that advanced AI systems could have a transformative effect on the world and are interested in helping make sure that transformation goes well.
Are an experienced manager (at least 2 years) and actively enjoy people management.
Are a quick study: this team sits at the intersection of a large number of different complex technical systems that you’ll need to understand (at a high level) to be effective.

Strong candidates may also have:

Experience working with research teams, especially as part of a “research to production” pipeline
Strong people management experience: Coaching, performance evaluation, mentorship, career development
Strong project management skills: Prioritization, communicating across team/org boundaries
Experience recruiting for your team: Predicting staffing needs, designing interview loops, evaluating candidates, and closing them

Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
