Responsibilities
- 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

- Experience with the grants process, such as applying for and managing competitive funding, and ideally designing, reviewing, or administering funding programs
- Deep engagement with frontier AI: you use these tools in your own work, understand where they're strong and where they fail, and take seriously the possibility that AI will transform every face of the scientific process within the next few years
- Track record of driving multi-stakeholder projects to completion, and of coordinating people who are juggling other high-priority work. You’re resourceful, high-agency, and able to navigate ambiguity and shifting priorities.
- Credibility with researchers: you can talk to scientists as a peer and understand how academic communities work, including their incentives, norms, and sensitivities
