Strong candidates may also have: Experience with empirical ML research projects Experience working with Large Language Models Experience in one of the research areas (e.g. Interpretability) Experience with deep learning frameworks and experiment management Track record of open-source contributions Candidates need not have: 100% of the skills needed to perform the job Formal certifications or education credentials Interview process: We aim to onboard our next cohort of Fellows in October 2025, with the possibility of later start dates for some fellows. Please note that if you are accepted into the October cohort, we expect that you will be available for several hours of mentor matching in October, although you may start the full-time program later. To ensure we can start onboarding Fellows in October 2025, we will complete interviews on a rolling basis until August 17, after which we will conduct interviews at specific timeslots on pre-specified days. We will also set hard cut-off dates for each stage - if you are not able to make that stage’s deadline, we unfortunately will not be able to proceed with your candidacy. We've outlined the interviewing process below, but this may be subject to change. Initial Application and References Submit your application below by August 17! In the application, we’ll also ask you to provide references who can speak to what it’s like to work with you. Technical Assessment You will complete a 90-minute coding screen in Python As a quick note - we know most auto-screens are pretty bad. We think this one is unusually good and for some teams, give as much signal as an interview. It’s a bunch of reasonably straightforward coding that involves refactoring and adapting to new requirements, without any highly artificial scenarios or cliched algorithms you’d gain an advantage by having memorized. We'll simultaneously collect written feedback from your references during this stage. Technical Interview You'll schedule time to do a coding-based technical interview that does not involve any machine learning (55 minutes) Final interviews The final interviews consist of two interviews:
Research Discussion (15 minutes) – Brainstorming session with an Alignment Science team lead to explore research ideas and approaches Take-Home Project (5 hours work period + 30 minute review) – Research-focused project that demonstrates your technical and analytical abilities In parallel, we will conduct reference calls. Offer decisions We aim to extend all offers by early October, and finalize our cohort shortly after. We will extend offers on a rolling basis and set an offer deadline of 1 week. However, if you need more time for the offer decision, please feel free to ask for it! After we select our initial cohort, we will kick off mentor matching and project selection in mid/late-October (the first week of the program). This will involve several project discussion sessions and follow-up discussions. We'll extend decisions about extensions in mid-December. Extended fellowships will end in mid/late-April. Compensation (CAD): This role is not a full-time role with Anthropic, and will be hired via our third-party talent partner. The expected base pay for this role is 2,350 CAD/week, with an expectation of 40 hours per week. Role-Specific Location Policy: While we currently expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time, this role is exempt from that policy and can be done remotely from anywhere in Ontario or British Columbia. Please note: The logistics below this section does not apply to this job posting (for example, we are not able to sponsor visas for Fellows).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.

Fellows will use external infrastructure (e.g. open-source models, public APIs) to work on an empirical project aligned with our research priorities, with the goal of producing a public output (e.g. a paper submission). Fellows will receive substantial support - including mentorship from Anthropic researchers, funding, compute resources, and access to a shared workspace - enabling them to develop the skills to contribute meaningfully to critical AI safety research. We aim to onboard our next cohort of Fellows in October 2025, with later start dates being possible as well. What To Expect Direct mentorship from Anthropic researchers Connection to the broader AI safety research community Weekly stipend of $2,100 USD & access to benefits (including access to medical, dental, and vision insurance, a Health Savings Account, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) retirement plan) Funding for compute and other research expenses Shared workspaces in Berkeley, California and London, UK This role will be employed by our third-party talent partner, and may be eligible for benefits through the employer of record. Mentors & Research Areas Fellows will undergo a project selection & mentor matching process. Potential mentors include Ethan Perez Jan Leike Emmanuel Ameisen Jascha Sohl-Dickstein Sara Price Samuel Marks Joe Benton Akbir Khan Fabien Roger Alex Tamkin Nina Panickssery Collin Burns Jack Lindsey Trenton Bricken Evan Hubinger Our mentors will lead projects in select AI safety research areas, such as: Scalable Oversight: Developing techniques to keep highly capable models helpful and honest, even as they surpass human-level intelligence in various domains. Adversarial Robustness and AI Control: Creating methods to ensure advanced AI systems remain safe and harmless in unfamiliar or adversarial scenarios. Model Organisms: Creating model organisms of misalignment to improve our empirical understanding of how alignment failures might arise. Model Internals / Mechanistic Interpretability: Advancing our understanding of the internal workings of large language models to enable more targeted interventions and safety measures. AI Welfare: Improving our understanding of potential AI welfare and developing related evaluations and mitigations. For a full list of representative projects for each area, please see these blog posts: Introducing the Anthropic Fellows Program for AI Safety Research, Recommendations for Technical AI Safety Research Directions. You may be a good fit if you: Are motivated by reducing catastrophic risks from advanced AI systems Are excited to transition into full-time empirical AI safety research and would be interested in a full-time role at Anthropic Please note: We do not guarantee that we will make any full-time offers to Fellows. However, strong performance during the program may indicate that a Fellow would be a good fit here at Anthropic, and external collaborations have historically provided our teams with substantial evidence that someone might be a good hire. Have a strong technical background in computer science, mathematics, physics, or related fields Have strong programming skills, particularly in Python and machine learning frameworks Can work full-time on the fellowship for at least 2 months, and ideally 6 months Have or can obtain US, UK, or Canadian work authorisation, and are able to work full-time out of Berkeley or London (or remotely if in Canada).
While we are not able to sponsor visas, we are able to support Fellows on F-1 visas who are eligible for full-time OPT/CPT. Are comfortable programming in Python Thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments Can execute projects independently while incorporating feedback on research direction We’re open to all experience levels and backgrounds that meet the above criteria – you do not, for example, need prior experience with AI safety or ML. We particularly encourage applications from underrepresented groups in tech. Strong candidates may also have: Experience with empirical ML research projects Experience working with Large Language Models Experience in one of the research areas (e.g. Interpretability) Experience with deep learning frameworks and experiment management Track record of open-source contributions Candidates need not have: 100% of the skills needed to perform the job Formal certifications or education credentials Interview process: We aim to onboard our next cohort of Fellows in October 2025, with the possibility of later start dates for some fellows. Please note that if you are accepted into the October cohort, we expect that you will be available for several hours of mentor matching in October, although you may start the full-time program later. To ensure we can start onboarding Fellows in October 2025, we will complete interviews on a rolling basis until August 17, after which we will conduct interviews at specific timeslots on pre-specified days. We will also set hard cut-off dates for each stage - if you are not able to make that stage’s deadline, we unfortunately will not be able to proceed with your candidacy. We've outlined the interviewing process below, but this may be subject to change. Initial Application and References Submit your application below by August 17! In the application, we’ll also ask you to provide references who can speak to what it’s like to work with you. Technical Assessment You will complete a 90-minute coding screen in Python As a quick note - we know most auto-screens are pretty bad. We think this one is unusually good and for some teams, give as much signal as an interview. It’s a bunch of reasonably straightforward coding that involves refactoring and adapting to new requirements, without any highly artificial scenarios or cliched algorithms you’d gain an advantage by having memorized. We'll simultaneously collect written feedback from your references during this stage. Technical Interview You'll schedule time to do a coding-based technical interview that does not involve any machine learning (55 minutes) Final interviews The final interviews consist of two interviews:
Research Discussion (15 minutes) – Brainstorming session with an Alignment Science team lead to explore research ideas and approaches Take-Home Project (5 hours work period + 30 minute review) – Research-focused project that demonstrates your technical and analytical abilities In parallel, we will conduct reference calls. Offer decisions We aim to extend all offers by early October, and finalize our cohort shortly after. We will extend offers on a rolling basis and set an offer deadline of 1 week. However, if you need more time for the offer decision, please feel free to ask for it! After we select our initial cohort, we will kick off mentor matching and project selection in mid/late-October (the first week of the program). This will involve several project discussion sessions and follow-up discussions. We'll extend decisions about extensions in mid-December. Extended fellowships will end in mid/late-April. At each stage, you'll receive more detailed instructions via email. While we have hard deadlines for each stage, we will be assessing candidates and making offer decisions on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to complete each stage as soon as possible. Compensation (USD): This role is not a full-time role with Anthropic, and will be hired via our third-party talent partner. The expected base pay for this role is $2,100/week, with an expectation of 40 hours per week. Role-Specific Location Policy: While we currently expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time, this role is exempt from that policy and can be done remotely from anywhere in the US. However, we strongly prefer candidates who can be based in the Bay Area and make use of the shared workspace we've secured for our Fellows. Please note: The logistics below this section does not apply to this job posting (for example, we are not able to sponsor visas for Fellows).The expected salary range for this position is:Annual Salary:$109,200—$109,200 USDLogistics 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.

About the CompanyCompanies want to train their own large models on their own data. The current industry standard is to train on a random sample of your data, which is inefficient at best and actively harmful to model quality at worst. There is compelling research showing that smarter data selection can train better models faster—we know because we did much of this research. Given the high costs of training, this presents a huge market opportunity. We founded DatologyAI to translate this research into tools that enable enterprise customers to identify the right data on which to train, resulting in better models for cheaper. Our team has pioneered deep learning data research, built startups, and created tools for enterprise ML. For more details, check out our recent blog posts sharing our high-level results for text models and image-text models.We've raised over $57M in funding from top investors like Radical Ventures, Amplify Partners, Felicis, Microsoft, Amazon, and notable angels like Jeff Dean, Geoff Hinton, Yann LeCun and Elad Gil. We're rapidly scaling our team and computing resources to revolutionize data curation across modalities.This role is based in Redwood City, CA. We are in office 4 days a week.About the RoleWe’re looking for a Research Scientist to lead work on post-training data curation for foundation models. You’ll design and implement algorithms to generate and improve instruction, preference, and other post-training datasets. You’ll also help bridge the gap between pre-training and post-training by exploring how to jointly optimize data across stages. This role requires strong scientific judgment, fluency with the deep learning literature, and a drive to turn research ideas into real-world impact. You’ll work autonomously, collaborate closely with engineers and product teams, and shape the future of data curation at DatologyAI.What You'll Work OnPost-training data curation. You’ll conduct research on how to algorithmically curate post-training data—e.g., how to generate and refine preference and instruction-following data, how to curate capability- and domain-specific data, and make post-training more effective, controllable, and generalizable.Unifying pre-training and post-training data curation. Pushing the bounds on model capabilities requires unifying post-training and pre-training data curation. You will pursue research on end-to-end data curation: how to curate pre-training data to improve the post-trainability of models and how to jointly optimize pre- and post-training data curation, all in service of maximizing the final performance of post-trained models.Transform messy literature into practical improvements. The research literature is vast, rife with ambiguity, and constantly evolving. You will use your skills as a scientist to source, vet, implement, and improve promising ideas from the literature and of your own creation.Conduct science driven by real-world needs. At DatologyAI, we understand that conference reviewers and academic benchmarks don’t always incentivize the most impactful research. Your research will be guided by concrete customer needs and product improvements.How You'll WorkNobody knows how to do your work better than you. We believe that scientists do their best work when they have the autonomy to pursue problems in the manner they prefer, and we will ensure that you are equipped with the context and resources you need to succeed.Science is more than just experiments. We expect our Research Scientists to collaborate closely with engineers, talk to customers, and shape the product vision.About You3+ years of deep learning research experienceExperience with post-training large vision, language, and multimodal modelsPost-training algorithm development, data curation, and/or synthetic data methods for:Preference-based tuning (e.g. DPO, RLVR, RRHF)Alternative supervision & self-supervision techniques such as self-training and chain-of-thought distillationSFT (e.g. instruction tuning and demonstration fine-tuning)Post-training tooling development and engineering experienceStrong understanding of the fundamentals of deep learningSufficient software engineering + deep learning framework (PyTorch or a willingness to learn PyTorch) skills to conduct large-scale research experiments and build production prototypes.Demonstrated track record of success in deep learning research, whether papers, tools, or other research artifacts.We would love it if candidates have:Experience with data management and distributed data processing solutions (e.g. Spark, Snowflake, etc.)Experience building + shipping ML productsCandidates do not need a PhD or extensive publications. Some of the best researchers we’ve worked with have no formal training in machine learning, and obtained all of their experience by working in industry and building products. We believe that adaptability, combined with exceptional communication and collaboration skills are the most important ingredients for successful research in a startup environment.CompensationAt DatologyAI, we are dedicated to rewarding talent with highly competitive salary and significant equity. The salary for this position ranges from $180,000 to $260,000.The candidate's starting pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, and interview performance.
