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.

Anthropic is looking for a creative technologist to join our Editorial team. You will translate cutting-edge AI research into compelling online experiences that, to put it mildly, blow people’s minds. You'll work at the intersection of storytelling, research, and technology, bringing your innovative ideas to help the world understand both the benefits and risks of advanced AI systems.

In this role, you'll partner closely with our research teams (such as the Frontier Red Team ) and external collaborators to design and prototype novel AI experiences. From whimsical experiments to more substantial technical demonstrations, you'll help craft narratives around AI capabilities that resonate with both technical and general audiences. This role is in keeping with the Editorial team’s mission of telling Anthropic’s stories in a refreshingly frank and candid manner.

This is a unique opportunity to shape how people experience and understand frontier AI. You'll have the creative freedom to explore ideas while working within a mission-driven organization. Your work will span from hands-on prototyping and building, to collaborating with communications, policy, and research teams on high-visibility projects that will be shared publicly.

Responsibilities

• Build off-the-wall, unusual interactive experiences such as installations, apps, and web experiences that demonstrate model capabilities (and limitations)
• Collaborate with research teams to translate technical breakthroughs and model behaviors into tangible, user-facing demonstrations that grab the attention of our audience and make them think about AI in a different way
• Lead technical implementation for projects like Vend , working with external partners to spec and develop new features
• Prototype novel interaction modes and creative applications of frontier AI models
• Identify high-impact storytelling opportunities and create technical artifacts, demos, and experiences for editorial, communications, and policy initiatives
• Analyze data from experimental deployments to generate insights about AI behavior and user interactions
• Build and maintain tools and infrastructure to support rapid prototyping and experimentation with AI models

Role Requirements

• Have 5+ years of experience building creative technology projects or interactive experiences
• Have hands-on experience working with large language models and AI APIs
• You can code fluently and ship production-quality work (experience with web, mobile, or physical computing)
• You possess strong creative instincts and can identify what makes compelling AI demonstrations
• You are comfortable working across the full stack—from concept to implementation to deployment
• You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where you define your own path
• You excel at collaborating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Have a portfolio or body of work that demonstrates technical creativity

Strong candidates may also have

• A research engineering background.
• Experience with experimental or speculative design
• Background in creative coding, interactive media, or digital art
• Published work, installations, or projects that explore technology and culture
• Experience prototyping with emerging technologies (AR/VR, IoT, robotics, etc.)
• Data visualization or creative data science experience
• Understanding of AI safety considerations and responsible AI deployment
• Active presence in creative technology communities
• Experience working in agency, lab, or startup environments
• Familiarity with both research and editorial/content workflows
• Track record of projects that have reached public audiences

About the Editorial team

The Editorial team is responsible for shaping how Anthropic communicates about AI—from written research publications to public-facing demonstrations. We believe that creative, hands-on experiences are one of the most effective ways to build understanding about both the opportunities and challenges of advanced AI systems. This role will work embedded with the Editorial team while collaborating extensively with teams across the organization.

The expected base compensation for this position is $200,000 - $255,000 USD.

Logistics

We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.

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.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification.

How we're different

We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles.
