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: Anthropic's ML Performance and Scaling team trains our production pretrained models, work that directly shapes the company's future and our mission to build safe, beneficial AI systems. As a Research Engineer on this team, you'll ensure our frontier models train reliably, efficiently, and at scale. This is demanding, high-impact work that requires both deep technical expertise and a genuine passion for the craft of large-scale ML systems. This role lives at the boundary between research and engineering. You'll work across our entire production training stack: performance optimization, hardware debugging, experimental design, and launch coordination. During launches, the team works in tight lockstep, responding to production issues that can't wait for tomorrow. Responsibilities: Own critical aspects of our production pretraining pipeline, including model operations, performance optimization, observability, and reliability Debug and resolve complex issues across the full stack—from hardware errors and networking to training dynamics and evaluation infrastructure Design and run experiments to improve training efficiency, reduce step time, increase uptime, and enhance model performance Respond to on-call incidents during model launches, diagnosing problems quickly and coordinating solutions across teams Build and maintain production logging, monitoring dashboards, and evaluation infrastructure Add new capabilities to the training codebase, such as long context support or novel architectures Collaborate closely with teammates across SF and London, as well as with Tokens, Architectures, and Systems teams Contribute to the team's institutional knowledge by documenting systems, debugging approaches, and lessons learned You May Be a Good Fit If You: Have hands-on experience training large language models, or deep expertise with JAX, TPU, PyTorch, or large-scale distributed systems Genuinely enjoy both research and engineering work—you'd describe your ideal split as roughly 50/50 rather than heavily weighted toward one or the other Are excited about being on-call for production systems, working long days during launches, and solving hard problems under pressure Thrive when working on whatever is most impactful, even if that changes day-to-day based on what the production model needs Excel at debugging complex, ambiguous problems across multiple layers of the stack Communicate clearly and collaborate effectively, especially when coordinating across time zones or during high-stress incidents Are passionate about the work itself and want to refine your craft as a research engineer Care about the societal impacts of AI and responsible scaling Strong Candidates May Also Have: Previous experience training LLM’s or working extensively with JAX/TPU, PyTorch, or other ML frameworks at scale Contributed to open-source LLM frameworks (e.g., open_lm, llm-foundry, mesh-transformer-jax) Published research on model training, scaling laws, or ML systems Experience with production ML systems, observability tools, or evaluation infrastructure Background as a systems engineer, quant, or in other roles requiring both technical depth and operational excellence What Makes This Role Unique: This is not a typical research engineering role. The work is highly operational—you'll be deeply involved in keeping our production models training smoothly, which means being responsive to incidents, flexible about priorities, and comfortable with uncertainty. During launches, the team often works extended hours and may need to respond to issues on evenings and weekends. However, this operational intensity comes with extraordinary learning opportunities. You'll gain hands-on experience with some of the largest, most sophisticated training runs in the industry. You'll work alongside world-class researchers and engineers, and the institutional knowledge you build will compound in ways that can't be easily transferred. For people who thrive on this type of work, it's uniquely rewarding. We're building a close-knit team of people who genuinely care about doing excellent work together. If you're someone who wants to be part of training the models that will define the future of AI—and you're excited about the full reality of what that entails—we'd love to hear from you.

AIRE has Claude's. Help us keep Claude reliable for everyone who depends on it. AIRE (AI Reliability Engineering) partners with teams across Anthropic to improve reliability across our most critical serving paths -- every hop from the SDK through our network, API layers, serving infrastructure, and accelerators and back. We jump into the trenches alongside partner teams to make the systems that deliver Claude more robust and resilient, be it during an incident or collaborating on projects. Reliability here is an emergent phenomenon that transcends any single team's boundaries, so someone has to zoom out and look at the whole picture. That's us -- and it means few teams at Anthropic offer this kind of dynamic, cross-cutting exposure to the systems that matter most. Responsibilities Develop appropriate Service Level Objectives for large language model serving systems, balancing availability and latency with development velocity. Design and implement monitoring and observability systems across the token path. Assist in the design and implementation of high-availability serving infrastructure across multiple regions and cloud providers Lead incident response for critical AI services, ensuring rapid recovery, thorough incident reviews, and systematic improvements. Support the reliability of safeguard model serving -- critical for both site reliability and Anthropic's safety commitments. You may be a good fit if you Have strong distributed systems, infrastructure, or reliability backgrounds -- we're looking for reliability-minded software engineers and SREs. Are curious and brave -- comfortable jumping into unfamiliar systems during an incident and helping drive resolution even when you don't have deep expertise yet. Think holistically about how systems compose and where the seams are. Can build lasting relationships across teams -- our engagement model depends on being welcomed as teammates, not outsiders with opinions. Care about users and feel ownership over outcomes, even for systems you don't own. Have excellent communication and collaboration skills -- you'll be partnering across the entire company. Bring diverse experience -- the team's strength comes from people who've built product stacks, scaled databases, run massive distributed systems, and everything in between.

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. Come work with us! Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
