Partnership Manager, AI for Science

About Anthropic

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.

About Beneficial Deployments

Beneficial Deployments ensures AI reaches and benefits the communities that need it most. We partner with nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven organizations to deploy Claude in education, global health, economic mobility, and life sciences. We prioritize opportunities to make AI more accessible and raise the floor of what is possible in a given domain while also partnering with leaders to help expand the use of AI to new tasks that raise the ceiling of what is possible.

About the role

We're looking for a Partnership Manager to grow our AI for Science Program . You'll build and manage partnerships with individual labs from around the world. This program is the primary way that Anthropic’s life sciences efforts work with individual labs that have new and innovative ideas for how Claude can contribute to a growing set of scientific domains.

In this role, you'll help build our approach to deploying Claude for Life Sciences across domains of research including the biomedical sciences, chemistry, and materials science. You'll work with incredibly interdisciplinary partners from academia as well as early stage companies. Your goal will be to develop relationships and goal directed partnerships that demonstrate or expand the capabilities of Claude in the sciences. You will focus both on individual projects but also building communities of practice that bring together scientists with similar interests or objectives. The right person will combine genuine curiosity and grounding in the sciences with an entrepreneurial and experimental drive to build something new at the frontier of AI.

Responsibilities:

Execute Anthropic's AI for Science API credit program, managing day-to-day partnerships with academic labs, small start-ups, and potentially foundations

Identify, evaluate, and onboard new partners via our API credit application calls as well as targeted relationship building

Serve as the primary relationship owner for AI for Science, coordinating with Anthropic’s Applied AI, product, and GTM teams to deliver impact 

Compile regular reports and learnings from the AI for Science ecosystem to help inform research and GTM priorities

Manage timelines, resource requirements, and regular reporting associated with the AI for Science program

Work closely with partners to understand their technical and operational needs and translate them into deployment plans

Comfort with early technical prototyping and testing to help learn alongside and unblock partners

Contribute to a research agenda for understanding AI's impact on individual labs across domains

Identify opportunities to create public goods -- open-source tools, datasets, and research -- that benefit the broader ecosystem

Represent Anthropic at global scientific convenings and conferences

Help shape team processes and culture as we scale our Life Science work

You may be a good fit if you have:

2+ years of experience in or around life sciences research, with exposure to how new technologies can accelerate scientific progress

Experience building communities of practice in which scientists from multiple domains converge on shared exploration and use of new technologies— whether through organizing journal clubs, meetups, student groups, or online scientific communities

A growing network in the life sciences: you understand the landscape of universities, research institutes, and tools companies, and are energized by building new relationships

Technical fluency to engage credibly on AI concepts, understand LLM capabilities and limitations, and partner effectively with technical tea …
