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.

About the Position

We're looking for experienced software engineers to join our Beneficial Deployments Engineering team to help bring AI accessibility to communities that need it most-nonprofits, educational institutions, healthcare organizations, life sciences researchers, and economic mobility initiatives globally.

This role requires strong full-stack engineering skills combined with deep empathy for underserved communities and mission-driven organizations. As an IC engineer on this team, you'll solve unique technical challenges at the intersection of AI accessibility, social impact, and scalable product development, and will help make frontier AI accessible to organizations working on humanity's most pressing challenges.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement infrastructure that enables accessible, self-serve onboarding and verification systems for global markets
• Understand the needs of underserved communities and translate them into scalable technical and product solutions
• Build flexible pricing, billing, and provisioning systems that balance accessibility with sustainability for resource-constrained organizations
• Develop MCP integrations that connect Claude with mission-critical tools used by nonprofits, educators, healthcare workers, and researchers
• Develop multilingual and accessibility capabilities across platforms
• Build systems to measure and demonstrate social impact at scale
• Partner with product, partnerships, and field teams to rapidly prototype and validate solutions with real communities
• Ensure platform reliability and performance for mission-critical deployments in humanitarian and social impact contexts

Requirements

• Have 6+ years of practical experience as a full-stack software engineer
• Have experience building consumer or enterprise products that prioritize accessibility, inclusivity, or served underserved populations
• Have technical expertise in identity management, billing systems, self-serve onboarding flows, or API integrations
• Have a builder mentality with the ability to ship products quickly while maintaining quality for diverse user needs
• Care deeply about using technology for social good and want your engineering work to have meaningful impact
• Have excellent collaboration skills and can work effectively with product, partnerships, and field teams

Nice to Have

• Experience with international markets, multilingual products, or accessibility features
• Background in nonprofit technology, social impact startups, or mission-driven organizations
• Experience with AI/ML products and LLM applications
• Familiarity with building products for resource-constrained environments or emerging markets
• Understanding of compliance requirements in regulated sectors
• Startup experience, particularly in scaling products from zero to one

We Offer

• Competitive salary range: $320,000 - $405,000 USD
• Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
• Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

Agreement to Arbitrate

I understand and agree that both Anthropic and I waive our respective rights to trial by jury in connection with any claims covered by this agreement to arbitrate. Instead, any disputes arising out of or related to my application for employment with Anthropic shall be settled by final and binding arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. I understand and agree that Anthropic’s employees/agents, Anthropic’s clients, and their employees/agents are third-party beneficiaries to this agreement.

The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS Rules”), available via the internet at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration or by searching for “JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules” in an online search service such as www.google.com*. To the extent the JAMS Rules are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern to the extent permitted by law. The parties will select one neutral arbitrator, who will have the authority to award all relief in law or equity that is requested by the parties and supported by credible, relevant, and admissible evidence. The arbitrator shall allow adequate discovery and issue a written, signed, and reasoned award. Judgement may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction, and the award shall be subject to correction, confirmation, or vacation as provided by the applicable law concerning judicial review of arbitration awards. Anthropic will bear the costs that are particular to the arbitration, such as the arbitrator fees. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of the state in which I sought employment with Anthropic. The arbitrator will determine the arbitration venue, based on fairness and convenience to the parties and witnesses, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the parties. The Party initiating a claim under this Agreement must make a written demand for arbitration to the other Party. The demand for arbitration shall identify the claims asserted, the facts upon which such claims are based, and any relief or remedy sought. Written demand for arbitration to Anthropic must be sent to Anthropic PBC at* [email protected]*. Anthropic’s demand for arbitration shall be sent to the most recent mailing address and/or email address that Anthropic has on file for you.*

This agreement to arbitrate does not apply to claims for workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation benefits, claims or charges before any administrative agency having jurisdiction over such claims, or any other claim that is not subject to arbitration under federal law. If any claims are deemed non-arbitrable, then those claims will be stayed until resolution of any arbitrable claims.

I understand and agree that, except where prohibited by federal law, all claims subject to this agreement to arbitrate must be pursued on an individual basis, and that both I and Anthropic waive any right to bring or be a party to any class or collective action. I agree that any issues pertaining to the enforceability, application or validity of this agreement to arbitrate shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. This agreement to arbitrate applies only in the United States.
