Staff Software Engineer, Environments Infrastructure
10d ago
Anthropic's Environments organization is responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure that enhances Claude's capabilities through reinforcement learning. This includes developing frameworks for researchers to build environments and the underlying infrastructure for running them, with a core mission to productionize research. The role involves embedding with research teams to understand their workflows and designing frameworks and APIs that accelerate their progress, ensuring these systems are understandable, ownable, and maintainable. A significant part of the role also includes ensuring the health, maintainability, monitoring, and ease of triage for production RL runs. The ideal candidate will possess deep Python expertise, a strong sense of API and framework design, and an intuitive understanding of complex system failures, particularly silent ones. Experience with stateful distributed systems like workflow engines or actor frameworks is a plus. The role requires comfort in navigating and abstracting complex research codebases, incrementally improving them while research continues, and leveraging AI tools for development with a focus on verification.
