About the role
At Anthropic, we're building AI systems that are safe, beneficial, and transformative. Our mission is to develop AI that benefits humanity, and we believe the most powerful capabilities emerge when we thoughtfully bridge the gap between research breakthroughs and real-world applications. Claude Design is the newest product from Anthropic Labs, the internal accelerator behind Claude Code and MCP. It lets anyone collaborate with Claude to create polished visual work: interactive prototypes, product mockups, slides, one-pagers, and marketing collateral. Start from a prompt, an image, or your own codebase, and Claude builds a first version that you refine through conversation, inline comments, direct edits, and live adjustment controls, then hand off to Claude Code to build for real. We launched in research preview in April 2026, and the product is new enough that the engineers who join now will define what it becomes. We're looking for Software Engineers to help build and shape Claude Design. This is a craft-heavy, frontend-leaning role: you'll create the canvas, real-time editing, design-system inference, and AI-driven generation experiences that make AI-generated design feel like a tool people reach for first- not a demo. You'll work at the intersection of cutting-edge research and real-world application, rapidly building and testing new experiences, partnering directly with researchers and users, and helping to generate the crucial insights that shape where the product goes next.
