About the job
Anthropic is making a significant investment in compute infrastructure to support its AI safety mission. We are seeking a Senior Manager, Infrastructure Tax to work alongside the Infrastructure Tax Lead. This role will handle the day-to-day execution of the integrated tax position across the infrastructure portfolio, including running intake on individual deals, owning defined workstreams, building models and documentation, and coordinating with various internal teams like Legal, Technical Accounting, FP&A, International Tax, Transfer Pricing, and Provision. This is a hands-on position for a tax practitioner who wants to own critical workstreams on one of Anthropic's largest capital commitments.
Responsibilities
- Manage deal intake for infrastructure transactions, gathering facts and preparing structure reviews and term-sheet input.
- Analyze service versus lease characterization, entity structure, and contract tax provisions for assigned deals.
- Develop and maintain after-tax deal economics models, including bonus depreciation, NOL utilization, and scenario analysis.
- Prepare tax-side inputs for Technical Accounting regarding lease-versus-purchase treatment, consolidation, capitalization policy, and book-tax differences.
- Execute datacenter entity structures across jurisdictions, including formation, operationalization, documentation, withholding, and permanent establishment analysis.
- Support transfer pricing for the infrastructure footprint by gathering facts, maintaining documentation, and coordinating benchmarking.
- Prepare quarterly tax provision inputs for new structures and deferred tax positions.
- Draft and maintain infrastructure tax playbooks, issue-spotting checklists, and internal trackers.
Requirements
- Experience supporting entity structures across multiple jurisdictions, including documentation and collaboration with local teams.
- Working knowledge of cross-border withholding, permanent establishment analysis, and debt-versus-equity characterization.
- Proven ability to own capital-intensive deals from intake through post-close with limited supervision.
- Skill in collaborating across Legal, Accounting, FP&A, and business teams, managing multiple deals concurrently, and knowing when to escalate.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, capable of producing clear written analysis.
- Comfort with ambiguity and a fast-paced environment.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education, training, and experience.
- A field of study relevant to the role.
Benefits
- Annual compensation range: $180,000 - $230,000 USD
- Hybrid work policy (at least 25% in office)
