Lead, Talent Development & Enablement

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 hiring a Lead for our Talent Development & Enablement team to help build the systems that help Ants (particularly managers) thrive. This is a build role: you’ll partner directly with the team lead to think holistically about talent development across Anthropic, with a strong primary focus on the manager and leader audience.

You’ll bring deep instructional design expertise, exceptional facilitation skills, and a strong point of view on how to grow people, and managers in particular, in an environment of unprecedented growth and change. You’ll design across modalities (self‑service, live virtual, in‑person) and across audiences (new hires, ICs, first‑time managers, experienced leaders, executives), and you’ll treat AI as a chance to reimagine what talent development can be, not retrofit it onto what already exists.

This role suits someone who is energized by extreme ambiguity, ships fast, and wants to invent the playbook rather than execute someone else’s. You’ll be one of the first specialist hires on a new team, which means your point of view will shape what we build and how we measure success.

Key Responsibilities

Design and ship talent development experiences end‑to‑end — from needs analysis through facilitation and measurement

Build innovative, Claude‑enabled learning experiences that Ants actually use and find valuable, across audiences and modalities

Facilitate live sessions for managers and senior leaders, including workshops and offsites; flex into broader Ant audiences when the work calls for it

Partner closely with cross‑functional teams to integrate learning into the broader Ant and manager experience

Develop a clear point of view on what makes Ants — and managers in particular — effective at Anthropic and design against that

Make the work visible — clearly communicate the value, outcomes, and strategic relevance of programs to the broader organization

Iterate rapidly based on feedback; ship a v1 in days or weeks, not quarters

Minimum Qualifications

Deep experience in learning & development, instructional design, or organizational development at high‑growth tech companies

Have personally designed and shipped talent development programs at scale, with strong examples in manager and leader development specifically — built from first principles, not assembled from vendor content

Are an exceptional facilitator with experience holding the room with senior audiences, including VPs and executives

Have demonstrable AI/LLM fluency in learning design — you have built or shipped AI‑enabled learning experiences and have a point of view on what AI changes about how people learn

Can design across modalities (self‑service, live virtual, in‑person) and across audiences (new hires, ICs, first‑time managers, experienced leaders, executives)

Are energized by building from scratch in fast‑moving, ambiguous environments and can name specific meaningful ships you delivered in short windows

Can connect the dots across the full talent lifecycle and articulate how your work ladders up to broader company strategy

Preferred Qualifications

8‑10+ years in learning & development, instructional design, or organizational development at high‑growth tech companies

Experience building Claude‑ or LLM‑powered learning tools

Background in instructional design, adult learning theory, or organizational psychology

Experience designing development programs for technical audiences (engineering, research) at the IC and manager level

Experience preparing organizations and their managers for significant change (rapid scaling, role evolution, reskilling)

Annual Salary
$230,000—$295,000 USD

Logistics

Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience

Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position

Location‑based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren’t able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
