Software Engineer, Growth

About Anthropic

Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.

We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. We value impact—advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI—rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.

The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.

About The Role: Software Engineer, Growth

We are looking for growth engineers to join our Claude.AI growth team. This key role will help drive user acquisition, engagement, retention, and monetization through data-driven strategies and technical implementations. At Anthropic, we're not just building AI tools; we're reimagining how AI can enhance and expand its user base! As a member of the growth team, you will have a unique opportunity to shape our growth strategy. You will work with a cross-functional team of engineers, data scientists, marketers, and product managers to design, implement, and optimize growth initiatives that scale our AI-powered tools and maximize their impact.

Responsibilities

• Develop and implement technical solutions to support user acquisition, activation, retention, and revenue growth.
• Design and execute A/B tests and experiments to optimize user onboarding, feature adoption, subscription conversion, and overall product experience.
• Collaborate with product and marketing teams to identify growth opportunities and translate them into technical requirements.

You May Be a Good Fit If You

• Have 2+ years of experience as a software engineer, with experience working on user growth (acquisition, activation, retention) or work on ads or monetization.
• Have strong practical coding skills, ideally in full-stack development (web and backend), and experience with data analysis and experimentation frameworks.
• Take a data-driven approach to problem-solving, with a keen eye for identifying patterns and opportunities in user behavior and metrics.
• Are passionate about the potential of AI to reach and benefit a wide audience, and eager to tackle challenges in scaling AI products.
• Thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and enjoy working closely with cross-functional partners and teammates.

Strong Candidates May Have

• Ideas for experiments to run to drive user growth or monetization.
• Ability to dive into data and identify opportunities.
• Possess a vision for the future of AI product growth and a drive to make that vision a reality.
