About the role
Legal Program Manager responsible for the contracting operations for Anthropic's Compute & Infrastructure team, overseeing procurement and vendor agreements, contract lifecycle management, intake workflows, and deployment of AI-enabled tooling to scale contracting throughput.
Responsibilities
- Coordinate and shepherd a high volume of compute and infrastructure procurement transactions — datacenter colocation, lease, and build-to-suit agreements; hardware, chip, and network-equipment procurement; construction/EPC and facilities/O&M agreements; and the supporting NDAs, order forms, SOWs, and amendments — driving each from intake through signature
- Own and administer the contract lifecycle management system: workflow design and configuration, templates, approval routing, signing and archive and integrity hygiene
- Design and run intake and triage: how requests enter, how they are prioritized, and how they route to the right owner
- Propose and develop scalable solutions to improve contracting efficiency and throughput across the infrastructure vendor base
- Collaborate with business units and legal team members to streamline contract management processes, manage post-signature obligations and renewals across the infrastructure vendor portfolio, identify potential risks, and drive continuous improvement in contract handling efficiency
- Partner closely with the Compute and Infrastructure, Product, Finance, Security, Business Operations, and Procurement Ops teams to achieve key business objectives and deliver strategic, business-minded, and solutions-focused counsel
- Build reporting, dashboards, SLAs, and the metrics that surface turnaround times and bottlenecks across the infrastructure vendor portfolio
- Deploy LLM and AI tooling to scale contracting throughput and reduce manual handling
Qualifications
- Experience operating in a fast-paced technology startup with adaptable priorities
- Initiative and autonomy in managing complex contractual matters
- Understanding of contract context, mission alignment, and ability to triage and route requests
- Desire to grow with organization and shape commercial culture
- Preference for concise explanations over legalese
- knack for identifying and implementing efficient processes and policies
- Ability to thrive in cross-functional teams and understand Compute & Infrastructure datacenter, hardware, and network systems
- Comfort operating outside core expertise and in uncharted legal territory
- “Doer” mentality and teamwork orientation

- Comfort using AI and LLM tools to streamline contracting work
