Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems. The Role

As a Transaction Manager at Anthropic, you’ll drive the commercial sourcing and transaction execution process for our data center capacity deals. You’ll lead RFP processes, negotiate term sheets, and serve as the central leader ensuring seamless stakeholder alignment from initial sourcing through lease execution. Responsibilities

Identify data center capacity opportunities and options through management of network relationships with data center developers, brokers, and power contacts. Lead the RFP and commercial sourcing process for specific data center deals, managing outreach, proposal evaluation, and competitive selection. Negotiate term sheets and manage the LOI process, structuring commercial terms that meet Anthropic’s technical and business requirements while maintaining strong developer partnerships. Bridge from LOI to executed transaction, ensuring all commercial, technical, and legal requirements are satisfied for deal closure. Serve as project manager for cross‑functional stakeholder engagement, coordinating due diligence teams, internal and external legal counsel, network organization, platform engineers, and finance organization. Act as the single point of contact (SPOC) for auxiliary organizations, providing regular updates on transaction progress and leasing process status. Develop and maintain transaction timelines, tracking critical path items and proactively identifying risks that could impact deal closure. Document and refine transaction processes and playbooks to enable scalable deal execution as Anthropic expands its infrastructure footprint. Ensure all stakeholder requirements are captured and addressed in commercial agreements, translating technical and operational needs into contractual terms. Who You’re a Good Fit
