About the role

Infrastructure Capacity Planner responsible for medium-range multi-resource demand forecasting (accelerators, CPU, storage, network, managed services) to support sourcing, budgeting, workload optimization, and capacity enforcement at Anthropic.

Responsibilities

  • Build and own the medium-range multi-resource demand forecast: accelerators by chip/interconnect class, CPU by shape, storage by tier and access pattern, egress by path, managed services by SKU — driven by model roadmap, RL/inference growth, eval volume, and retention policy rather than trend lines.

Qualifications

  • Have done capacity, demand, or supply planning for large-scale technical infrastructure (cloud, HPC, hyperscale, or a large internal platform) and can articulate the difference between a forecast, a plan, and an allocation.
  • Build the model yourself rather than specifying it for someone else: SQL against a warehouse, Python/pandas or a proper forecasting/optimization stack.
  • Understand data-center resource classes well to know why storage and egress don't forecast like GPUs, and why a contract's headline chip count is rarely the binding constraint.
  • Prefer simple, inspectable models to clever opaque ones, and instrument your own forecast error.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a collaborative office space.
