SoftwareEngineer,RL

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's RL Data team builds the systems that produce high-quality reinforcement learning data for Claude: data collection pipelines, human feedback tooling, the execution environments RL tasks run in, and the quality assurance that keeps training data trustworthy at scale. Our goal is to make Claude genuinely great at complex, real-world work — and to point those capabilities at the things that matter most, including AI safety research and beneficial deployments of AI. (To be upfront: this is dual-use work — it advances general capabilities too, though we aim to differentially advance the beneficial ones.) This is a foundational role on a new team: you'll help shape our technical direction and what we build first. The work is hands-on and varied. Some weeks you'll be deep in pipeline or infrastructure engineering; others you'll be tuning prompts until the output is good, or sitting with a research team that depends on your systems and shipping the fixes they need. We're looking for strong engineers who will also do whatever else it takes to make their systems succeed — reading transcripts, supporting users, and wrangling vendors. Key responsibilities Own significant parts of our stack end-to-end, from technical architecture through the unglamorous operational work that makes it succeed Build data collection pipelines, read the transcripts they produce, and iterate on prompts, evals, and graders until the output is good Develop and improve QA frameworks to catch reward hacking and ensure environment quality Build interfaces that make collecting human data fast and painless for the people providing it Harden execution
