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
As a Commercial Counsel for Datacenters & Construction at Anthropic, you'll lead legal execution for Anthropic's largest physical infrastructure transactions: direct datacenter leases, construction agreements, and the financing structures that enable infrastructure investments at massive scale. This role focuses on facilities where Anthropic has direct control through ownership or long-term lease, complementing the colo & networks, and cloud compute legal teammates (facilities where Anthropic is tenant, and our hyperscaler relationships, respectively). You'll work in close partnership with specialized outside counsel on financing and real estate matters, serving as the in-house coordinator who ensures external work product aligns with Anthropic's commercial objectives and integrates with our overall compute strategy.
Responsibilities:
Negotiate long-term datacenter leases with major developers, and represent some of Anthropic's largest and lengthiest capital commitments
Support and structure power purchase agreements, negotiate utility interconnection agreements, and manage utility-related legal requirements or initiatives e.g., renewables
Coordinate construction-adjacent agreements including design-build contracts, equipment procurement, and commissioning schedules
