Über diese Technical Program Manager, Compute Stelle bei Anthropic
About Anthropic
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.
About the Role
As a Technical Program Manager on the Compute team, you will help drive the planning, coordination, and execution of programs that keep Anthropic's compute infrastructure running efficiently at scale. Our compute fleet is the foundation on which every model training run, evaluation, and inference workload depends.
You'll join a small, high-impact TPM team and take ownership of critical workstreams across the compute lifecycle, from how supply is procured and brought online, to how capacity is allocated and utilized across teams. The exact focus will depend on your strengths and the team's evolving needs.
You'll partner with Infrastructure, Systems, Research, Finance, and Capacity Engineering to shape the processes, tooling, and coordination mechanisms that allow Anthropic to move fast while managing an increasingly complex compute environment.
Responsibilities:
- Own and drive critical programs across the compute lifecycle, coordinating execution across multiple engineering, research, and operations teams
- Build and maintain operational visibility into the compute fleet, ensuring the organization has a clear picture of supply, demand, utilization, and health
- Lead cross-functional coordination for compute transitions: bringing new capacity online, migrating workloads, and managing decommissions across cloud providers and hardware platforms
- Partner with engineering and research leadership to navigate competing priorities and drive alignment on how compute resources are planned, allocated, and used
- Identify and close operational gaps across the compute pipeline, whether through new tooling, improved processes, or better cross-team communication
- Own trade-off discussions between utilization, cost, latency, and reliability, synthesizing inputs from technical and business stakeholders and communicating decisions to leadership
- Develop and improve the processes and frameworks the team uses to plan, track, and execute compute programs at increasing scale and complexity
You may be a good fit if you:
- Have 7+ years of technical program management experience in infrastructure, platform engineering, or compute-intensive environments
- Have led complex, cross-functional programs involving multiple engineering teams with competing priorities and ambiguous requirements
- Have experience working with research or ML teams and translating their needs into operational plans and technical requirements
- Are comfortable diving deep into technical details (cloud infrastructure, cluster management, job scheduling, resource orchestration) while maintaining program-level visibility
- Thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where you need to define scope and build processes from the ground up
- Have strong communication skills and can engage credibly with engineers, researchers, finance, and executive leadership
- Have a track record of building trust with engineering teams and driving changes through influence rather than authority
Strong candidates may also have:
- Experience managing compute capacity across multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) or hybrid cloud/on-premises environments
- Familiarity with job scheduling, resource orchestration, or workload management systems (Kubernetes, Slurm, Borg, YARN, or custom schedulers)
- Experience with GPU or accelerator infrastructure, including the unique challenges of large-scale ML training and inference workloads
- Built or improved observability for infrastructure systems: dashboards, alerting, efficiency metrics, or cost attribution
- Capacity planning experience including demand forecasting, cost modeling, or hardware lifecycle management
- Scaled through hypergrowth in AI/ML, HPC, or large-scale cloud environments
Deadline to Apply: None, applications will be received on a rolling basis.

Logistics
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.
Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day.

How we're different
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 as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
