In the posting’s own words
As a Technical Evangelist on the Startups team, you'll be the face of Anthropic in the startup ecosystem, driving awareness and activation among founders and their technical teams by showing them exactly what's possible with Claude and how to build it. Your focus is the startup developer community: getting builders from first API call to production, and turning early curiosity into committed platform adoption.
What it asks for · 8
- Founded a company or been an early employee at a startup — you've lived the 0-to-1 journey and know what it actually takes to go from idea to product-market fit
- The ability to write production-quality code and build live demos in front of a technical audience — not polished walkthroughs, but real builds that show how to solve a problem
- 7+ years of experience across a combination of founding, building, and technical roles — developer relations or evangelism is a plus, but builder credibility matters more than a DevRel title
- High energy and dynamism on stage with a highly technical audience — you can command a room of YC founders and handle tough follow-up questions without losing the thread
- Hands-on experience building with LLMs and shipping AI-powered products — you stay close to the technology and can speak to real production tradeoffs
- Experience turning ecosystem relationships — with VCs, accelerators, or developer communities — into measurable developer adoption
- Willingness to travel regularly and work non-traditional hours, including evenings and weekends for events
- Genuine enthusiasm for building AI responsibly — you care about Anthropic's mission beyond the technology itself
