Working closely with GTM, Applied AI, product, and marketing teams, you'll identify expansion opportunities while ensuring our customers get maximum value from Anthropic's solutions.
The ideal candidate will combine strong commercial acumen with executive relationship management skills, focusing on growing large accounts through strategic expansion while maintaining high retention rates in a competitive market. By driving expanded deployment of Anthropic's products at the companies defining what AI-native looks like, you will help them scale their AI capabilities while advancing its safe and ethical development.
Responsibilities:

Build and maintain trusted relationships with founders, board members, and executive stakeholders, as well as the technical leaders (CTO, VP Engineering, Head of AI) who own model decisions
-
Lead strategic account planning including executive business reviews, health checks, usage and forecast reviews, and renewal negotiations
-
Partner with customers to identify new use cases, workloads, and products that expand their AI capabilities with Anthropic
-
Navigate complex commercial conversations — multi-stakeholder deals, evolving usage patterns, and competitive evaluations — in partnership with Applied AI and product teams
-
Serve as the voice of the customer by gathering feedback and conveying market needs to inform our product roadmap
-
Develop and execute account strategies that align Anthropic's solutions with customer business objectives
-
Proactively identify and mitigate retention and competitive risks while maintaining high customer satisfaction
Must Have Qualifications:
-
11+ years of experience in sales or account management roles, with a proven track record of growing large, complex accounts and exceeding retention and expansion targets
-
Success as a strategic business advisor to founders and executives, deeply understanding fast-scaling startup needs and creating solutions that align with their vision
-
Experience managing complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles, working with technical stakeholders, and negotiating strategic deals
-
Strong presentation and communication skills with ability to build relationships across all customer levels, from ICs to founders and C-level executives
-
Analytical approach to understanding customer needs and usage combined with creative solutions to drive expansion
-
A knack for bringing order to chaos and an enthusiastic "roll up your sleeves" mentality
-
Passion for emerging technologies like AI, with interest in ensuring they are developed safely and responsibly

Preferred Qualifications:
-
Experience selling or expanding usage- or consumption-based API, infrastructure, or developer-platform products

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!
