In the posting’s own words
As a Technical Deployment Lead on the Claude Agentic Solutions team, you will lead the delivery of custom AI agent solutions for enterprise customers in highly regulated industries. You'll own high-value engagements where we collaborate directly with customers to build and deploy agents into their most critical business processes.
What it asks for · 7
- Have 5+ years of customer-facing technical delivery leadership — this could be technical engagement management, technical program management, or technical product management, founders/startups, technical-adjacent backgrounds, professional services, consulting, or enterprise software.
- Have delivered AI, ML, or LLM-based agentic solutions into production. You understand solution patterns, integration approaches, and what breaks in real environments.
- Can lead architecture discussions with engineering stakeholders, evaluate technical trade-offs, and pressure-test technical decisions. You won't write production code, but you will own the technical direction of engagements alongside FDEs.
- Have a track record delivering complex, high-stakes technical projects for enterprise clients where outcomes depended on tight coordination and fast decision-making, ideally across multiple workstreams in regulated industries.
- Have executive presence — polished, credible, and comfortable representing Anthropic to senior leaders in high-stakes environments.
- Thrive in ambiguity and bring structure where none exists.
- Have a builder's mindset — you're here to create a function, not join one.
Also a plus
- Experience in financial services, healthcare/life sciences, or pharmaceutical verticals.
- Background at a Forward Deployed Engineering company or professional services and consulting firms.
- Exceptional understanding of LLM capabilities and limitations.
- Experience with regulated industries and compliance requirements.
- Experience managing delivery teams with embedded engineers at customer sites.
- Familiarity with AI agent frameworks, tool use patterns, and orchestration architectures.
What the job covers
- Own the technical delivery plan for each engagement. Structure SOWs with clear scope, milestones, dependencies, success criteria, and value hypotheses. Translate customer business objectives into a sequenced roadmap that FDEs execute against.
- Lead technical discovery: map customer workflows, identify constraints, define MVP scope, and shape the solution architecture for custom agent deployments.
- Run day-to-day engineering execution and delivery across Anthropic and customer teams. Keep progress unblocked and sequenced. Make real-time trade-offs on scope and priority to protect the critical path.
- Own product scoping for field engagements: d efine the MVP, author requirements documentation, prioritize the engineering backlog, and manage scope against success criteria as requirements evolve.
- Own the customer relationship throughout delivery. Lead executive briefings, manage stakeholder communications across technical leads and procurement, and represent Anthropic's technical credibility with senior business and engineering leaders.
- Own value measurement and ROI: define impact hypotheses, set baselines and KPIs, run pre- and post-deployment measurement, and report outcomes to executive sponsors.
- Codify reusable solution patterns, evaluation frameworks, and technical playbooks. Extract what works across engagements and feed field signals back to Product and Research to improve our platform and models.
- Navigate enterprise and regulatory complexity: security reviews, legal approvals, procurement processes, compliance requirements, and organizational dynamics.
- Manage scope and change: handle evolving requirements, set expectations, negotiate contract modifications, identify risks early, and escalate with clear context when needed.
- Run delivery operations: sprint ceremonies, milestone reviews, and progress reporting.
- Travel to customer sites to build relationships, unblock delivery, and accelerate adoption (25–50% expected).
