Company mission
To create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems.
Role
Who you are
- Have several years of experience in technical program management, with a track record of successfully delivering complex, cross-functional programs
- Have experience with platform engineering efforts (shared services, developer platforms, or common capabilities consumed by multiple product teams) and can engage meaningfully with the engineers building them
- Have driven platform adoption across consuming teams, where success depended on other teams choosing to build on what you shipped
- Have experience coordinating across multiple engineering teams and organizations simultaneously
- Are highly organized and can manage multiple parallel workstreams effectively across distributed teams
- Thrive in unstructured environments with a knack for bringing order to chaos and creating clarity in ambiguous situations
- Have excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence without authority
- Are passionate about Anthropic's mission and interested in the challenges of bringing AI capabilities to users safely and reliably
- Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
- We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed
What the job involves
- Anthropic is investing in shared platform capabilities that power Claude across our consumer and developer products: the common foundation that Claude, Cowork, Claude Code, and future surfaces are built on
- We're hiring a Technical Program Manager to be the connective tissue for this effort, someone who ensures we're building the platform the rest of Anthropic's products are built on, and that product teams actually get leverage from it
- This is not a single-team TPM role. You'll work across the platform engineering teams and every product team that consumes the platform, driving one cohesive roadmap rather than a collection of disconnected workstreams
- Success looks like products at Anthropic shipping more easily, faster, and more reliably because they're built on a common foundation, with developer velocity increasing measurably across the company, not just within one team
- Own the cross-Apps platform roadmap end to end: sequencing, dependencies, and tradeoffs across platform teams and the apps teams that depend on them
- Drive alignment between platform engineering and apps teams so platform investments map to real consumer needs and adoption actually happens (leverage only exists if teams build on the platform)
- Identify duplication across surfaces and convert it into shared platform capabilities
- Establish the operating rhythm: planning, status, escalation paths, and launch coordination across orgs
- Create program documentation including roadmaps, status reports, risk assessments, and communication plans
- Facilitate technical decision-making by bringing together stakeholders, driving consensus, and ensuring timely resolution of blocking issues
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.
