In the posting’s own words

You'll help decide what these products are, not just how they're built — the product questions are as open as the architecture ones — and you'll see your work land with real teams at the world's largest enterprises.

What it asks for · 6

  • Have 8+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with 2+ years at a Staff or equivalent technical leadership level
  • Have led the design and delivery of complex customer-facing products across the full stack
  • Have built AI products and know what it takes to turn model capabilities into applications people actually use
  • Are comfortable working directly with enterprise customers and translating what you learn into technical decisions
  • Have built products from 0 to 1 in fast-moving environments, and can set technical direction with limited precedent to lean on
  • Drive cross-team alignment to ship impactful work, with influence over authority

Also a plus

  • Experience working with research to improve domain-specific model capabilities, including evaluation frameworks
  • Experience as startup founders or early-stage employees

What the job covers

  • Own technical design and delivery for enterprise-facing core products, end-to-end across the stack
  • Partner with product, design, and go-to-market to turn enterprise customer workflows into shipped product, not just execute against a spec
  • Set technical direction and standards for your team: architecture, code quality, and how the team builds
  • Work directly with enterprise customers and sales during key conversations, translating what you learn into engineering priorities
  • Work closely with research to make the models better in your domain: shaping evals, surfacing failure modes, and feeding customer learnings back into model development
  • Mentor other engineers and raise the technical bar across the team, working with influence rather than authority
  • Build the core primitives that enable knowledge workers across industries and roles to meaningfully leverage Claude

How this page was made

An automated read of a public job posting, fetched August 25, 2026 and last changed by Anthropic on August 21, 2026. Every list above is pulled from the posting’s own sentences — nothing rewritten, nothing added, no judgment about the role or the company. Counts and seniority are read off the text by rule, so they can be wrong where the posting is unusual. The original is the only thing that binds. Openings close without warning; check the source before spending an evening on it.
