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.
As a contract Technical Content Developer at Anthropic, you'll create compelling video content that helps developers and technical users understand and leverage Claude's capabilities. You'll be part of our developer education team, which is dedicated to making AI accessible and understandable to diverse audiences. In this role, you'll design, produce, and publish high-quality technical videos covering topics like Claude, Claude Code, Model Context Protocol, and other emerging features and tools in our ecosystem.
You'll work at the intersection of education and technology, translating complex technical concepts into engaging visual content. Your videos will serve as essential resources for developers building with Claude, helping them unlock the full potential of our AI systems while maintaining our commitment to safety and beneficial use.
Design, script, record, edit, and publish technical video content about Claude, related products, and related software engineering topics. We sometimes work on tight timelines and value speed, but never at the expense of quality.

Create limited supporting materials such as code samples, documentation, and written guides to complement video content
Maintain a consistent publishing schedule and manage a content calendar
Stay current with developments in AI, developer tools, and technical education best practices
Review video performance metrics and audience feedback to continuously improve content quality and relevance
Have 2-5+ years of experience creating and publishing technical video content
This position requires programming experience. You should have experience programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript
Have a strong portfolio demonstrating your ability to explain complex technical topics clearly and engagingly
Possess solid technical understanding and can quickly learn new technologies, APIs, and development tools

Experience with motion graphics, animation, diagramming tools, or visual effects (Lucid Charts, Miro, Excalidraw, After Effects, Motion, etc.)
Strong visual design sense to match content to predefined brand aesthetics
Experience creating content about APIs, SDKs, or developer tools
Background in technical writing or documentation
Meaningful impact: your work will directly improve how thousands of developers experience our documentation
Collaboration with world-class researchers and engineers who genuinely care about documentation quality
Opportunities to deepen your technical writing skills and learn about cutting-edge AI technology through hands-on work
Exposure to diverse documentation challenges across APIs, developer tools, and technical products
A supportive team environment where questions and knowledge-sharing are encouraged
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.
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.
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.
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.
