## About the role

Anthropic's compute fleet is one of the largest and most varied in the world, and everything we do from training frontier models to serving Claude depends on getting the right work onto the right hardware at the right time. Our Scheduler team owns that problem. We build the scheduling layer for Anthropic's Kubernetes fleet, the tools researchers and engineers use to launch and manage their jobs, and the systems that make sure the fleet is used as efficiently as possible.

## What they're looking for

- Experience managing and growing a team of software engineers
- A hands-on software engineering background as an individual contributor prior to moving into management
- Experience building or operating large-scale distributed or infrastructure systems in production
- Working knowledge of Kubernetes and cluster scheduling concepts, such as resource requests and limits, affinity, priority and preemption, and custom schedulers or controllers
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to create clarity across teams
