Responsibilities

  • Build and improve the RL training infrastructure that researchers depend on day-to-day.
  • Identify and remove bottlenecks across the RL stack: debugging, profiling, and rearchitecting where needed.
  • Partner closely with researchers and adjacent engineering teams to understand pain points and ship tooling that makes them faster.
  • Own the reliability and performance of research runs end-to-end.
  • Contribute to design decisions that shape how Anthropic does RL at scale.

Requirements

  • Have strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of building performant, reliable systems.
  • Have worked on ML infrastructure, distributed systems, or research tooling.
  • Care about enabling other people's work and find leverage through platforms rather than individual experiments.
  • Are comfortable operating across the stack, from low-level performance work to RL algorithms.
  • Have a bias toward shipping and iterating quickly, with a mix of high agency and low ego.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation and benefits.
  • Optional equity donation matching.
  • Generous vacation and parental leave.
  • Flexible working hours.
