Anthropic Software Engineer at Anthropic working on Beneficial Deployments to enable access to AI systems for educators, nonprofits, and researchers. Focus on building and supporting verification, billing, and provisioning systems.
Responsibilities
At Anthropic, we're building AI systems that are safe, beneficial, and transformative. Our mission is to develop AI that benefits humanity, and we believe the most powerful capabilities emerge when we thoughtfully bridge the gap between research breakthroughs and real-world applications.
Many of the people who could gain the most from Claude are the least able to buy it the usual way. A teacher often pays for tools out of pocket. A small nonprofit has no procurement team. A university lab that wants to use Claude has to go through funding, an IT office, and a purchasing department at once. Beneficial Deployments works to reach them, through programs like Claude for Teachers and Claude for Nonprofits and through our work with researchers.
What stands between those people and Claude is rarely the model. It's proving they qualify, getting the right price, buying in a way their institution allows, and landing in the right organization with the right permissions. Those steps run through identity, billing, provisioning, and fraud systems that were built for commercial customers. Our Access team makes them work for everyone else.
We're looking for engineers who find it deeply satisfying to remove the one thing stopping thousands of teachers or scientists from getting started. You'll work in other teams' codebases as often as our own, and much of the job is earning the trust of the engineers, accountants, and safety reviewers who own those systems. This role's focus is access. Experience with billing or identity is a big plus. What matters most is that you finish hard things that cross team lines, get the details right when money and trust are involved, and care about who is on the other end.
Core Responsibilities:
Own programs like Claude for Teachers or Claude for Nonprofits from design through launch, operation, and support
Support the verification lifecycle: how educators, nonprofits, and research labs prove eligibility, get reviewed at scale, renew, and are removed fairly when they no longer qualify
Build pricing, billing, and provisioning that understands programs, including discounts, usage caps, credits, tax exemption, and self-serve purchase, so the next program is configuration rather than a project
Build safe paths for organizations to move between their available plans and manage their teams, without losing data, seats, or history
Work directly in partner teams' systems, such as billing, identity, and Safeguards
Design for trust, with controls and audit trails that stand up to financial audit and student-privacy requirements
Turn manual review, one-off fixes, and hand-run testing into tools that support, sales, and finance can use themselves
