## Description

## About the role

You will build Anthropic's technical instruction function. You will be the first person at Anthropic whose full-time job is technical instruction. You'll spend your first year primarily in the room, teaching engineers, architects, and other technical practitioners, and build the people, standards, and systems that allow Anthropic's technical instruction to scale.

This is a player-coach role. You'll lead sessions yourself, manage a bench of technical instructors, set the bar for what 'ready to teach' means, and certify others to teach to that bar both inside and outside Anthropic. You'll have real ownership: you'll decide who is cleared to teach in Anthropic's technical programs.

## Key responsibilities

- Lead from the front: Deliver hands-on technical instruction across Anthropic's onboarding and residency programs

- Build the instructor bench: Hire, onboard, manage, and develop technical instructors

- Set the quality bar: Define what excellent technical instruction looks like at Anthropic

- Scale through certification: Design and run train-the-trainer programs for internal experts, contract instructors, and facilitators from our training partners

- Turn expertise into great instruction: Partner with Technical Enablement Leads to transform technical content into sessions, labs, and exercises that work in a live room

- Enable programs without owning them: Partner with our onboarding and Training & Certification teams to staff programs with cleared instructors

- Measure and improve: Establish meaningful measures of learner outcomes and instructor quality

## Minimum qualifications

- 8+ years of relevant professional experience across software engineering, solutions engineering, developer advocacy, technical education, or related technical roles
