Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Anthropic as an employer.

What you need

  • Proven track record of owning a high-volume purchasing portfolio end-to-end in procure-to-pay and intake platform.
  • Solid working knowledge of accrual accounting as it applies to purchasing: accruals and reversals, service period and cutoff, prepaid vs. expense, and GL and cost center coding.
  • Experience supporting outsourced or managed service vendors at scale, where scope and volume move month to month and the contracts, purchase orders, and invoices have to keep up with each other.
  • Working knowledge of how contract review, security and privacy review, and financial controls fit together in a purchase, and the judgment to know when to push a request through and when to slow it down.

Nice to have

  • 5-7+ years of procurement operations, purchasing, or vendor operations, including time supporting a research, engineering, hardware, or outsourced services organization.
  • Experience as the embedded procurement partner for a hyper scaling data operations, ML, RL, and lab environments.
  • Time at a hypergrowth technology company scaling procurement operations for outsourced or vendor delivered work.
  • Background in accounting, accounts payable, or a month-end close process, including experience with three-way match.
  • Sourced human data, data labeling, annotation, or evaluation vendors (or comparable BPO and outsourced operations) with a point of view on where that market is heading.

What you get

  • Competitive compensation and benefits
  • Optional equity donation matching
  • Generous vacation and parental leave
  • Flexible working hours
  • Lovely office space for collaboration

Worth weighing

  • High-volume role with a strong accounting core, which may require significant attention to detail and accuracy.
  • The role involves defining an AI-native procurement operations function, which may require adaptability to evolving processes.
  • No specific mention of remote work flexibility beyond a hybrid policy requiring 25% office presence.
  • Visa sponsorship is available but not guaranteed for every role and candidate.
