The opportunity

The Discovery team at Anthropic is organized around the north star goal of building an AI scientist – a system capable of solving the long-term reasoning challenges and basic capabilities necessary to push the scientific and technological frontier.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement evaluation methodologies for assessing AI model: capabilities relevant to engineering and applied science research and applications

  • Design realistic tasks and training environments, and curate data from your field

  • Develop and validate simulations and computational tools for your field, and: calibrate them against real-world data

  • Work with industry partners, manufacturers, and labs to build and test what: Claude invents, designs, and engineers, and bring that real-world feedback into evaluation and training

  • Think through how Claude's engineering capabilities can permeate the real: world: where they can have the most impact across industry and research, and what it takes to get them adopted

  • Advise the team on which problems, tools, and workflows matter most in your field

What they're looking for

  • + years of hands-on R&D or industry experience in an engineering or applied science discipline
  • Ph.D. in an engineering or applied science field, or equivalent industry experience
  • Industry experience in product design and manufacturing, or in developing: engineering or scientific simulation software
  • Breadth across more than one discipline, or across several stages of the path from design to production
  • Familiarity with modern AI model training methods
  • Track record of building high-fidelity solvers or simulation engines that: were validated against real-world data and used in practice
  • Experience working with manufacturers, vendors, contract research organizations, or academic labs
  • Experience managing data pipelines and working with large-scale technical datasets
