The opportunity
Accelerating scientific discovery is a core part of Anthropic's mission, and we believe the highest-leverage path to this is enabling researchers externally to use Claude effectively for their work. This involves communicating Claude’s rapidly improving scientific capabilities…
What you'll do
Act as the interface between research and the outside world. Stay close to: the researchers working on Claude's scientific capabilities and translate rapid capability gain into use by external researchers.
Help set Anthropic’s external science strategy. Recommend which scientific: areas and communities we focus on, and how our programs, collaborations, and communications fit together
Guide the scientific direction of the Anthropic Science Blog . Work with: researchers and the Editorial team to identify and source stories internal and external stories worth telling, draft and edit posts, and keep a steady cadence of high-quality science writing.
Drive forward external science programs. Design, launch, and run grants and: access programs such as AI for Science grants and Team plan offerings for research groups, as well as partnerships with scientific foundations and grantmaking organizations. Work with Beneficial Deployments on programs aimed at the highest-impact scientific areas.
Gather feedback from scientific communities. Identify usage patterns and: gather feedback on how researchers use Claude and what capability gaps exist, and turn it into concrete recommendations for research and product teams.
