Description
About the Role
As a Member of Analytical Staff for The Anthropic Institute, you'll spend your time researching how Anthropic is tackling the challenges the Institute is focused on, synthesizing what you learn from across the organization, and turning that into rigorous analysis that shapes both internal decisions and public understanding.
You'll be talking to colleagues all over Anthropic,building a picture of how different teams are approaching some of the most consequential questions in AI,and then helping the Institute communicate that work and its implications to the world. You will use Claude aggressively, creatively, and daily, to help you surface insights about what Anthropic is doing with regard to these problem areas.
Responsibilities
- Research how Anthropic's teams are working on the Institute's challenges and synthesize findings from across the organization into a coherent picture.
- Partner with teams to help them surface their insights to the world, often working to act as the 'connective tissue' between them and other teams to bring different insights together.
- Produce written analysis and memos about how Anthropic is approaching these problems,for both internal leadership and public audiences.
- Partner with relevant teams to develop and publish public outputs.
- Come up with creative ways to carry our work into the world: sometimes the most impactful way to talk about an issue is through a technical demonstration rather than a blog post or research paper (e.g, Golden Gate Claude, Project Vend, Robodog).
What We're Looking For
- 7+ years of experience in technical policy research, think tank work, or applied research in a domain relevant to the Institute's focus areas (AI, labor economics, national security, or emerging technology governance).
- Track record of publishing or producing work for external audiences,whether policy memos, research reports, white papers, or public-facing analysis.
- Comfort operating at the intersection of technical and policy audiences. You don't need to be an ML researcher, but you can read technical work, ask good questions of the people who produce it, and translate findings accurately for non-technical stakeholders without losing the nuance.
- Demonstrated ability to synthesize across disciplines and bodies of work. You've produced analysis that draws on economics, political science, technology, or organizational behavior,not siloed in one field.
- Deep experience using Claude as a tool for research and organizational knowledge-gathering.
