• Thrive in unstructured environments with a knack for bringing order to chaos and creating clarity in ambiguous situations, including where decision ownership is unclear
• Are highly organized and can manage multiple parallel workstreams effectively across distributed teams
• Have driven scaling, performance, or efficiency programs for high-volume production systems, including the tradeoffs across performance, reliability, and cost
• Have experience with API platforms, distributed systems, and core infrastructure programs and can engage meaningfully with the engineers who design and operate them
• Have coordinated programs spanning many partner organizations, managing cross-team dependencies, commitments, and escalations at the working level

• Have 7+ years of technical program management experience, with a track record of successfully delivering complex, cross-functional programs
• Are passionate about Anthropic's mission and interested in the challenges of operating AI infrastructure safely and reliably
