As a senior individual contributor, you'll be accountable for the technical decisions that ripple across the team and beyond. You'll architect the systems, tooling, and evaluation infrastructure that determine how quickly our research can move.

Responsibilities:

• Set technical direction for evaluation systems, research infrastructure, and internal tooling across the Claude Code team

• Architect eval frameworks that measure model capabilities across diverse coding tasks and scale with our research roadmap

• Lead the design of infrastructure that enables researchers to run experiments at scale, and make the foundational tradeoffs that shape how the team operates for years

• Identify the highest-leverage engineering investments,often before anyone has asked for them,and drive them to completion

• Serve as a senior technical bridge between product and research, using strong product intuition to influence which capabilities we prioritize and how we measure progress against them

• Mentor and raise the bar for other engineers on the team; review designs, unblock peers, and model the engineering standards we want to scale

• Partner with research leads to translate ambiguous research questions into durable engineering solutions

• Own critical systems end-to-end, from architecture through production reliability, and take responsibility for their long-term health

If you have 10+ years of software engineering experience, with a track record of operating as a Staff or Principal engineer (or equivalent) at a high-caliber organization, you may be a good fit for this role.

Strong candidates may also have experience with designing or scaling eval/evaluation frameworks for ML systems, reinforcement learning infrastructure or training systems, leading technical initiatives in high-performance, demanding environments, research computing, scientific infrastructure, or developer platforms at scale, a strong quantitative foundation (math, physics, or related fields), and expertise in Python and TypeScript.

The annual compensation range for this role is $405,000-$485,000 USD.
