Company mission
To create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems.
Role
Who you are
- Deep full lifecycle recruiting experience, with substantial time supporting infrastructure, platform, or comparably technical engineering organizations
- Ability to hold a substantive technical conversation about infrastructure domains such as Kubernetes and container orchestration, cloud networking, cluster networking, and systems languages, and to evaluate technical qualifications rather than match keywords
- Proficiency with an applicant tracking system like Greenhouse and other modern sourcing tools
- Experience partnering directly with hiring managers on intake, bar calibration, and interview loop design
- Sound independent judgment on candidate quality, and the ability to independently partner with multiple hiring managers on complex searches
- A strong sense of ownership over your work, and the adaptability to adjust as priorities and hiring needs shift
- Genuine interest in Anthropic's mission and in the role a strong infrastructure function plays in achieving it
- We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification
Desirable
- Experience recruiting at a high-growth technology, AI, or machine learning company
- Working knowledge of the infrastructure and platform talent landscape, including where strong large-scale ML training and systems infrastructure talent tends to come from
- Experience hiring for hyperscale cluster infrastructure, research and platform infrastructure, privacy infrastructure, or sandboxing and isolation engineering
- Experience improving recruiting processes, market maps, or interview architecture where they were thin or absent
- Comfort using LLMs to accelerate sourcing, research, and market mapping
What the job involves
- As Technical Recruiter, Infrastructure, you'll join the small team of recruiters who hire for that organization, owning full lifecycle recruiting for your searches and partnering with infrastructure leaders to turn ambiguous needs into clear search strategies
- Own full lifecycle recruiting for a portfolio of roles across the Infrastructure organization, from intake through offer and close
- Run structured intakes with infrastructure hiring managers, translating ambiguous needs into scoped requirements, calibrated bars, and search strategies
- Build and maintain pipelines of specialized infrastructure talent, with an emphasis on passive candidates
- Refine infrastructure interview loops, take-home assignments, and scorecards alongside hiring managers, your recruiting counterparts, and Recruiting Operations
- Develop deep domain knowledge aligned with the teams you support, so you can identify niche talent with the right specific domain fit
- Advise hiring managers with market data and candid calibration feedback, and influence decisions through credibility rather than volume
- Partner with Compensation, People Partners, and Mobility to structure equitable offers and guide candidates to close
- Handle sensitive role and candidate information with discretion, including for searches whose scope is confidential
Our take
Funded by Google and founded by ex-OpenAI employees, Anthropic has emerged as one of the leading companies in AI, focused on building reliable and safe AI systems. Since its launch, the company has rapidly grown into a major player in the industry, with its AI assistant Claude now widely recognized as a strong competitor to ChatGPT.
Like other chatbots, Claude is accessible through a conversational interface and supports a wide range of text-generation and reasoning tasks. A key point of differentiation remains its emphasis on safety, with Anthropic's "Constitutional AI" approach aiming to produce more aligned and less harmful outputs than earlier generations of AI systems.
While Claude has received significant praise for its performance and alignment, some users have notes areas for improvement, particularly in technical domains such as complex mathematics and precision in grammar. However, with substantial backing freom major tech players and multi-billion-dollar funding rounds, Anthropic has firmly established itself as a long-term competitor in the AI space.
Now the company is continuing to refine Claude's capabilities while expanding globally, including growing its presence in Europe. And its ongoing commitment to responsible AI development put it in a position to be not just a competitor, but a key influence on the direction of the industry as a whole.
