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 As Developer Relations for MCP (Model Context Protocol) at Anthropic, you will play a crucial role in how developers build agents that interact with external systems. This role will be pivotal in growing the MCP developer ecosystem, including gathering crucial feedback to inform evolution and development of the protocol.
Your success in this role will directly shape the role the protocol plays in the ecosystem across countless use cases. Building strong relationships with our developer community will be essential as we advance our mission of creating reliable, interpretable AI that follows human intent.
What You’ll Do Drive Strategic Impact
Execute the near and long-term strategy for how developers discover and engage with MCP
Prioritize community building and growth initiatives based on data, feedback, and the needs of developers building with AI
Collaborate with product and engineering leadership to ensure developer needs inform the roadmap
Foster a collaborative culture that embodies Anthropic's values while driving innovation in how we engage developers
Drive Scaled Developer Adoption and Success
Understand the diverse needs of customers, partners, and stakeholders across different segments within the open source community
Partner strategically with customer-facing teams to create unified developer-focused campaigns that drive adoption
Organize and lead high-impact developer events, workshops, and community activities that introduce MCP to strategic developer communities
Generate high-quality technical content including sample apps, tutorials, documentation, integration guides, and best practices that demonstrate how to use MCP responsibly and effectively
Drive Alignment and Innovation Through Cross-Functional Leadership
Act as an advocate for MCP developer needs at Anthropic, translating developer feedback into strategic initiatives
Collaborate with Research to translate AI capabilities into accessible educational resources
Partner with Communications and Marketing teams to amplify developer success stories
About You
You have 5+ years of experience in developer relations, developer experience, or technical product teams, with a proven track record of measurably growing developer ecosystems
You're technically credible. You’re able to deeply understand AI/ML and API concepts and translate complex technical ideas for various audiences ranging from individual developers to enterprise executives
You have hands-on technical abilities. You’re capable of creating your own code demos, critically reviewing developer samples for quality and best practices, and providing specific technical feedback that elevates the work of your team
You have deep insight into developer psychology and behavior. You know how to reach developers through the right channels, build authentic affinity for products, and design education programs that drive meaningful adoption
You're passionate about AI's potential and deeply committed to ensuring it's developed responsibly, with a genuine interest in AI safety and ethical considerations
You’re an advocate for open source and Anthropic’s contributions to the community
Nice to Have
Experience working specifically with large language models or generative AI
Background in AI safety, ethics, or responsible AI development
Public speaking experience at industry conferences and events
Experience working with open source software communities
The expected base compensation for this position is below. Our total compensation package for full-time employees includes equity, benefits, and may include incentive compensation.
$305,000 - $385,000 USD
Logistics Education requirements:
We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
Location-based hybrid policy:
Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
Visa sponsorship:
We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
How we're different We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
Come work with us! Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues. Learn about our policy for using AI in our application process.
As set forth in Anthropic’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.
