Requirements
Skills
- Have strong distributed systems, infrastructure, or reliability backgrounds -- we're looking for reliability-minded software engineers and SREs.
- Are curious and brave -- comfortable jumping into unfamiliar systems during an incident and helping drive resolution even when you don't have deep expertise yet.
- Think holistically about how systems compose and where the seams are.
- Can build lasting relationships across teams -- our engagement model depends on being welcomed as teammates, not outsiders with opinions.
- Care about users and feel ownership over outcomes, even for systems you don't own.
- Have excellent communication and collaboration skills -- you'll be partnering across the entire company.
- Bring diverse experience -- the team's strength comes from people who've built product stacks, scaled databases, run massive distributed systems, and everything in between.
- Have been an SRE, Production Engineer, or in similar reliability-focused roles on large scale systems.
- Have experience operating large-scale model serving or training infrastructure (>1000 GPUs).
- Have experience with one or more ML hardware accelerators (GPUs, TPUs, Trainium).
- Understand ML-specific networking optimizations like RDMA and InfiniBand.
- Have expertise in AI-specific observability tools and frameworks.
- Have experience with chaos engineering and systematic resilience testing.
- Have contributed to open-source infrastructure or ML tooling.
- Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
Responsibilities
- Develop appropriate Service Level Objectives for large language model serving systems, balancing availability and latency with development velocity.
- Design and implement monitoring and observability systems across the token path.
- Assist in the design and implementation of high-availability serving infrastructure across multiple regions and cloud providers.
- Lead incident response for critical AI services, ensuring rapid recovery, thorough incident reviews, and systematic improvements.
- Support the reliability of safeguard model serving -- critical for both site reliability and Anthropic's safety commitments.
