About the role

The People Products team exists to support Anthropic’s mission by defining the blueprint for AI at work. We help hire the best person in the world for every job, ensure manager effectiveness, ramp new hires successfully, and ensure that we apply first principles thinking in how we shape Anthropic’s culture through the tools we build. We cover the entire employee lifecycle from hiring to onboarding, teamwork, and promotions.

You’ll work directly with Claude on problems that are genuinely unsolved. You’ll move fast — prototype to production in days or weeks. We believe in cross-functional thinkers who can reason across product, design, and engineering. You’ll be given high autonomy, own your decisions, and ship constantly. If you’ve experienced the pain of bad people practices and want to be the person who fixes them at the most consequential AI company in the world, this is that job.

Key responsibilities

Design AI-native workflows across the People Products portfolio defining what is possible in applied AI for people processes

Contribute to the strategic direction of our internal tools, rooted in deep user empathy

Define feature areas with exceptional attention to detail and polish, identifying opportunities to improve quality and consistency of broader flows

Craft beautiful, polished, and delightful user interfaces that build trust and showcase the power of our AI technology

Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and internal stakeholders — HR teams, recruiters, managers — to define product vision, strategy and roadmaps

Rapidly prototype ideas using code and other methods to communicate concepts and build excitement

Find creative ways to ship high-quality work in a fast-paced, often ambiguous, resource-constrained startup environment

Minimum qualifications

Experience designing complex workflows, enterprise/B2B SaaS, or people products

Strong portfolio showcasing user-centric design thinking, polished UI craftsmanship, and innovative interaction paradigms

Proven track record of executing end-to-end on large and complex products or a series of products in ambiguous environments

Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams and influence without authority

Passion for crafting scaled, highly impactful, safe and beneficial artificial intelligence technologies to enable new possibilities

Experience with prototyping, especially using front-end code (e.g. HTML/CSS/JS) preferred

Preferred qualifications

You ship fast and stay in motion. You'd rather get something in front of users this week than perfect it for a month. You prototype in code, stay scrappy when speed matters, and know when to polish versus when to learn.

You're rethinking the basics. Many UI primitives were designed for a different era. You're excited to question fundamental assumptions and invent patterns that feel native to AI.

You're AI-native in how you work. You're already using Claude Code, Claude Design, or similar tools to extend what you can build. You see AI as a creative partner in your own practice.

You stay close to the models. You pay attention to where capabilities are heading, not just what Claude can do today. You design for the product we're becoming.

You elevate craft while moving fast. You care about the details—the pixels, the copy, the edge cases—and find ways to maintain that care while shipping quickly.
