Technical Program Management, Alignment

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.</p></div><h2 class="heading"><strong>About the Team</strong></h2> <p>The Alignment Special Ops team identifies and executes some of the most neglected, high-leverage projects across Anthropic’s Alignment org and beyond. We’re a small team with a broad mandate and our work takes us across the entire company (and often, the broader safety research ecosystem). You will accelerate technical research, incubate new research efforts, and drive high-priority initiatives that don’t have a natural home elsewhere (e.g., the <em>Anthropic Fellows Program</em>).</p> <h2 class="heading"><strong>About the Role</strong></h2> <p>You’ll own 3–4 special projects at a time. These are generally ambiguous, cross-functional problems that need someone to define the goal and approach, build the plan, coordinate the team, and drive to a result.</p> <p>This role is in-person in San Francisco, CA.</p> <h2 class="heading"><strong>Responsibilities</strong></h2> <p>The team’s project list changes often, and some work is confidential. Below is representative of the kinds of things you’d do:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Scope, plan, and drive model evaluation projects end-to-end: understand the goal with researchers, coordinate contributors across teams &amp; externally, staff efforts, and produce deliverables on a tight deadline</p> </li> <li> <p>Manage external research collaborators—onboarding, expectation-setting, contracts, and handling edge cases as they arise</p> </li> <li> <p>Synthesize complex information into decision-relevant inputs for leadership so they can move quickly</p> </li> <li> <p>Identify new projects t
