The IT Operations team keeps Anthropic running. We make sure every employee can do their best work without friction. We're hiring an IT Operations Engineer to develop our global asset management and hardware lifecycle program across our offices in San Francisco, New York, Seattle, London, Dublin and Sydney. You will bring program expertise to how we track hardware as inventory through its whole life: procurement and receiving, the inventory of record, assignment, refresh, collection and recovery, e-waste and secure disposal, and reseller relationships, iterating and scaling practices as we mature. The same person runs day-to-day operations for our corporate mobile program in addition to expertise in management of laptop and workstation lifecycle operations.
What it asks for · 6
- Have implemented an asset management and lifecycle program for a multi-office fleet, not only run one: taken it from spreadsheets or nothing to a system of record and defined the processes around it (procurement, inventory, assignment, refresh, collection and disposal), ideally in a fast-paced or high-growth environment
- Have selected or implemented an asset management platform such as Jira Assets, Snipe-IT or similar, and developed the data model
- Have run an e-waste or secure disposal program with certified partners and chain-of-custody records
- Have managed reseller or vendor relationships for hardware purchasing and asset disposal
- Write things down: runbooks, how-to guides and knowledge base articles
- Recognize when a request reaches past this role and route platform work to IT Engineering, policy to the Endpoint pod, and budget to Finance
Also a plus
- Have supported a corporate mobile program or carrier account
- Have basic scripting experience (Bash or Python) for inventory or reporting automation
- Have experience using AI tools to improve personal or team productivity
- Have been the hands-on asset contact for an ISO 27001 or SOC 2 audit: pulled extracts from the register, produced disposal certificates and evidence of returned assets
