Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.
Our team 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 frontier.
We're seeking a Science Research Operations team member to build and own the operational infrastructure that keeps our research organization running at full speed. Our science teams are working on some of the hardest and most consequential problems in AI—training large-scale models, running complex experiments, and building novel products at the frontier. What makes that possible isn't just talent: it's the coordination, systems, and programs that let researchers spend their time on the science rather than the overhead around it.
This role sits at the intersection of research operations, technical program management, and product strategy. You'll work directly with research scientists and research engineers, doing a mix of tasks including running research partnerships, managing complex internal programs, and helping run the team’s day-to-day operations. You'll also contribute to science product development—helping translate research directions into product strategy and ensuring our production deployment environments reflect our best configurations.
This is not a pure coordination role. The best candidates will engage substantively with what the team is building, have a role in determining our strategy, spot problems before they surface, and bring genuine ownership to the systems and programs they run.
This role offers a rare opportunity to have broad impact on a research organization working at the frontier of AI. You'll be a key part of how ambitious science gets done—not just facilitating it, but shaping the programs, products, and infrastructure that make it possible. If you're energized by high-ownership work at the intersection of operations and research, we'd love to hear from you.
Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
The annual compensation range for this role is listed below.
For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience
Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position
Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
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. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.

We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has a
