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

Design at Anthropic sits at the intersection of craft, research, and product intuition. We're a small team working on products that millions of people use daily—and on interactions that don't have established conventions yet.

What they're looking for

  • Experience designing and shipping complex workflows, enterprise/B2B SaaS, developer tools, or API products end-to-end
  • Proven track record of executing end-to-end on large and complex products, or a series of products, in ambiguous environments
  • A portfolio demonstrating user-centered design thinking and polished UI craftsmanship
  • Proficiency with modern design and prototyping tools, such as Figma
  • Experience using AI tools such as Claude Code as a creative partner in your own design practice
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams and influence without authority
More about this role

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.

Design at Anthropic sits at the intersection of craft, research, and product intuition. We're a small team working on products that millions of people use daily—and on interactions that don't have established conventions yet.

Our work shapes how people experience AI: whether Claude feels like a tool or a collaborator, whether it earns trust or erodes it. We partner closely with engineers and researchers, often designing around capabilities that are emerging in real-time. That means staying close to the models, prototyping rapidly, and being comfortable with ambiguity.

We're looking for designers who ship fast and stay in motion—people who would rather get something in front of users this week than perfect it for a month. You're excited to question fundamental UI assumptions and invent patterns that feel native to AI, and you're already using tools like Claude Code...
