Technical Program Manager (Infrastructure)

• We’re hiring a TPM leader to own program management across this whole ecosystem from compute provisioning through to production workloads
• We’re bringing up new datacenters, scaling multi-cloud compute across AWS, GCP, and Azure, managing datacenter construction, and building the software infrastructure to keep pace
• The team is growing very quickly, and we’re looking for a senior leader with experience at scale to build and scale this team to support Anthropic’s rapid growth
• You’ll report to the Head of TPM, partnering closely with various engineering leaders on technical strategy, roadmapping, and aligning TPM support where it is most impactful
• You’ll personally drive 2–3 critical programs while leading your teamin parallel
• This is a role where you need to be comfortable doing the work yourself before you can hand it off
• Own and drive 2–3 of the highest-priority programs across infrastructure while you build the team
• Run the actual programs—datacenter bring-up timelines, capacity scaling plans, infrastructure migrations, cross-team reliability efforts, or whatever the most pressing needs are
• Build the processes and playbooks as you go—figure out what works by doing it, then codify it for the team
• Earn credibility with engineering leads through solid execution, not just strategy
• Set the standard for what good TPM work looks like in this domain through your own output
• Coach and develop TPMs
• Transition programs to your team as you hire
• Grow the team with excellent TPMs by defining roles, writing JDs, sourcing candidates, and closing hires
• Work with various engineering leads to identify work that would most benefit from TPM support
• Make real tradeoffs about what to staff vs. what to skip given limited TPM capacity during the build phase
• Maintain portfolio-level visibility across programs—status, risks, dependencies, blockers
• Represent the team in planning cycles and leadership reviews
• Coordinate across Infrastructure and partner teams (Research, Product, Security, Finance, Legal) on programs that span organizational boundaries
• Drive alignment on programs that cross the hardware/software line—e.g., capacity plans that feed into training schedules, or efficiency work that spans accelerator kernels and serving systems
• Own executive communication on program status, risks, and resource needs

• Have 10+ years of experience in technical program management, with 7+ years directly managing TPMs and ideally some experience leading larger TPM organizations
• Have scaled TPM teams to support rapidly-growing, fast-moving company environments
• Have built a team or function from scratch before—you know the difference between hiring for a defined role vs. figuring out what the roles should be
• Have run large-scale compute or infrastructure programs—capacity planning, cluster deployments, datacenter build-outs, cloud migrations, or similar
• Can communicate complex programs clearly to senior leadership without losing the important details
• Are good at context-switching between doing the work and managing people, and don’t see the IC work as beneath you
• Have worked across physical and software infrastructure—datacenters, networking, hardware ops, distributed systems, cloud platforms, developer tooling. You don’t need to be deep in all of it, but you need to be conversant enough to ask the right questions and spot the real risks
• We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification- Deadline to apply: None, applications will be received on a rolling basis
