About this role
About Anthropic
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.
About the role
Anthropic's Infrastructure organization is foundational to our mission of developing AI systems that are reliable, interpretable, and steerable. The systems we build determine how quickly we can train new models, how reliably we can run safety experiments, and how effectively we can scale Claude to millions of users — demonstrating that safe, reliable infrastructure and frontier capabilities can go hand in hand.
As Technical Recruiter, Infrastructure, you'll join the small team of recruiters who hire for that organization, owning full lifecycle recruiting for your searches and partnering with infrastructure leaders to turn ambiguous needs into clear search strategies.
Key responsibilities
• Own full lifecycle recruiting for a portfolio of roles across the Infrastructure organization, from intake through offer and close
• Run structured intakes with infrastructure hiring managers, translating ambiguous needs into scoped requirements, calibrated bars, and search strategies
• Build and maintain pipelines of specialized infrastructure talent, with an emphasis on passive candidates
• Refine infrastructure interview loops, take-home assignments, and scorecards alongside hiring managers, your recruiting counterparts, and Recruiting Operations
• Develop deep domain knowledge aligned with the teams you support, so you can identify niche talent with the right specific domain fit
• Advise hiring managers with market data and candid calibration feedback, and influence decisions through credibility rather than volume
• Partner with Compensation, People Partners, and Mobility to structure equitable offers and guide candidates to close
• Handle sensitive role and candidate information with discretion, including for searches whose scope is confidential
Minimum qualifications
• Deep full lifecycle recruiting experience, with substantial time supporting infrastructure, platform, or comparably technical engineering organizations
• Ability to hold a substantive technical conversation about infrastructure domains such as Kubernetes and container orchestration, cloud networking, cluster networking, and systems languages, and to evaluate technical qualifications rather than match keywords
• Proficiency with an applicant tracking system like Greenhouse and other modern sourcing tools
• Experience partnering directly with hiring managers on intake, bar calibration, and interview loop design
• Sound independent judgment on candidate quality, and the ability to independently partner with multiple hiring managers on complex searches
• A strong sense of ownership over your work, and the adaptability to adjust as priorities and hiring needs shift
• Genuine interest in Anthropic's mission and in the role a strong infrastructure function plays in achieving it
Preferred qualifications
• Experience recruiting at a high-growth technology, AI, or machine learning company
• Working knowledge of the infrastructure and platform talent landscape, including where strong large-scale ML training and systems infrastructure talent tends to come from
• Experience hiring for hyperscale cluster infrastructure, research and platform infrastructure, privacy infrastructure, or sandboxing and isolation
