Staff+ Research Engineer, RL Data PlatformPosted today$500K

The opportunity

Anthropic's RL Data Platform team builds the systems that produce, move, and serve the human data Claude learns from: the interfaces humans use to give feedback, the pipelines that turn raw feedback into training signal, and the tooling researchers use to launch, monitor, and…

What you'll do

  • Design, build, and operate the feedback and data collection interfaces used: by human annotators, domain experts, and internal researchers.

  • Build and maintain the backend services, APIs, and pipelines that route model: samples to humans and return structured feedback to training.

  • Own the reliability, latency, and usability of systems that run continuously against live model endpoints.

  • Partner with RL researchers to translate loosely specified data needs into: well-scoped collection campaigns and the tooling to run them.

  • Build dashboards, monitoring, and inspection tools so researchers can see: data quality and throughput without asking an engineer.

  • Identify and remove the bottlenecks between "we want this data" and "it's in the training mix".

What they're looking for

  • Experience building annotation, labelling, evaluation, or other human-in-the-loop data tooling.
  • Experience with RLHF, preference data, or other human-feedback pipelines for ML systems.
  • Experience shipping researcher-facing or other expert-facing internal tools: people love: interviewing users, hunting down friction, measurably improving the experience.
  • Experience running experiments on data collection interfaces and using the results to improve data quality.
  • Experience working with crowdworker or expert vendor platforms at scale.
  • Familiarity with how LLMs are trained and evaluated.
