Anthropic is building AI systems that will shape the trajectory of one of the most consequential technologies in human history. That work requires physical infrastructure at significant scale, and building that infrastructure the right way means being a real, long‑term partner to the communities where we operate. The Community Engagement Manager in Canada will serve as Anthropic's on‑the‑ground presence in the communities where our data centres are sited, built, and operated. This role is a relationship‑focused position requiring strong coalition building and communication skills to ensure our infrastructure projects are beneficial and supported by local stakeholders.
