About Anthropic

Anthropic is an AI safety and research company that's working to build reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Backed by Accel, Bessemer and General Catalyst.

About the role

The world's engineers want to get the most out of Claude. At Anthropic, technical instruction already happens everywhere: our Applied AI and Forward Deployed Engineering teams teach customers and partners, and engineers across the company help others learn to build with Claude. Today that instruction is a shared responsibility, delivered alongside people's primary roles. As demand grows, we need to turn that distributed expertise into a dedicated technical instruction function.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years of relevant professional experience across software engineering, solutions engineering, developer advocacy, technical education, or related technical roles
  • 4+ years of hands-on technical instruction. You have taught engineers live and hands-on, across audience sizes
  • Production engineering. You have written and shipped production software and engage credibly with experienced engineers on architecture and debugging
  • Recent hands-on AI development. In your last three years of work, you have built or debugged applications with LLM APIs, agent frameworks, tool use, MCP, or similar
  • People leadership. You have managed instructors, trainers, developer advocates, or solutions engineers, including hiring and performance management, and kept teaching
  • Instructor development. You have designed or run a train-the-trainer program, instructor certification, or observation framework

You will build that function.

You will be the first person at Anthropic whose full-time job is technical instruction. You'll spend your first year primarily in the classroom teaching engineers, architects, and other technical practitioners. You'll also build the people, standards, and systems that let Anthropic's technical instruction scale far beyond the people we directly employ.
