Engineering Editorial Lead

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. About the role Anthropic is looking for an Editorial Lead to own our engineering blog — one of the most visible ways we share how we build, what we learn, and why it matters. This is a role for someone who can bridge the gap between highly technical work and a broad, curious readership, turning complex engineering stories into posts that are rigorous, accessible, and compelling to read. You’ll work closely with engineering and research teams to identify the stories worth telling, then lead the editorial process from first draft through to publication. This isn’t a role where you’ll be writing everything yourself — a big part of the job is drawing out great writing from engineers who have deep expertise, and helping them turn that expertise into something the wider world can learn from.
