Job Description
Anthropic is building reliable, interpretable, and steerable artificial intelligence systems focused on safety and societal benefit. The organization is seeking an Anthropic STEM Fellow for a four-month contract to tackle major challenges across science and engineering using Claude models. This position suits researchers and experts from scientific and engineering fields who want to help advance AI reasoning capabilities for complex domain-specific problems.
During this fixed-term engagement, Fellows work alongside internal research teams in small pods to establish grand challenges, develop rigorous datasets and simulations, and evaluate model performance. Participants utilize frontier Claude models and proprietary internal evaluation tooling to test and train the technology. The role runs full-time from January 12th through May 8th, 2027, with a default location in San Francisco and possible remote engagements within the United States under specific circumstances. Candidates are engaged through an employer of record.
Responsibilities
- Identify long-horizon open problems in your academic or professional field where current AI models fall short of expert judgment
- Design comprehensive datasets, simulations, and rigorous evaluations to test model planning, data interpretation, and reasoning
- Apply Claude models to open problems in your domain using test-time compute strategies and relevant scientific software
Requirements
- Hold a PhD in a STEM field with several years of experience such as post-doc or faculty work
- Possess hands-on experience utilizing Claude and Claude Code in daily workflows
- Maintain existing authorization to work in the United States for the duration of the program
- Commit to a full-time schedule for the four-month duration starting January 12th to May 8th, 2027
Qualifications
- Prior machine learning experience is helpful but not required
- Demonstrate strong scientific judgment and a willingness to learn quickly
Core Skills
Benefits
- Compensation of $100,000 to $167,000 USD for the four-month fellowship duration
