IT Systems Engineer, Corporate Systems & Infrastructure

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

The Corporate Infrastructure team builds and operates the platform layer the rest of IT Engineering runs on — cloud infrastructure hosting internal services, the CI/CD that ships IT's own code, the observability stack across the corporate environment, and the cross-system automation that wires together tools never designed to talk to each other.

You'll build deployment pipelines and internal tooling that let IT Engineering ship like a product team. You'll define SLOs for corporate services, build the monitoring to know when we're missing them, and run on-call for the things you deploy. You'll partner with network and AV engineers as their infrastructure counterpart — automating physical-world systems, building the telemetry that tells us an office is degraded before someone files a ticket. The scope is broad and the team is deliberately small, which means you'll need depth across cloud, CI, and observability, strong judgment about where to invest, and a bias toward infrastructure-as-code over heroic manual fixes.

You'll report into IT Engineering and partner closely with Security, Network Engineering, and the broader IT org on the systems they depend on. This role is high-autonomy: you'll own the infrastructure roadmap, make architecture decisions, and be the engineer the rest of IT builds on. Your work will directly shape how we scale to AI Safety Level 4 and beyond.

Responsibilities

• Build and operate the cloud infrastructure that hosts IT's internal services
• Design CI/CD pipelines that let IT Engineering ship through code review and automated testing
• Own observability for corporate infrastructure — monitoring, alerting, dashboards, and SLOs
• Write cross-system automation to integrate third-party systems and internal services
• Partner with network, audiovisual, and physical security to deliver robust infrastructure solutions
• Build internal tools — CLIs, bots, dashboards — that make other IT engineers faster
• Run on-call for corporate infrastructure with post-incident reviews that drive durable fixes
• Deploy infrastructure as code

You May Be a Good Fit If You

• Have 8+ years building secure IT systems in complex environments
• Excel at solving ambiguous problems with multiple stakeholders
• Communicate technical concepts clearly to any audience
• View IT Engineering as requiring product engineering rigor
• Successfully deliver complex projects from conception through completion
