About the Role We're seeking a Procurement Business Partner to support Anthropic's compute infrastructure operations.

You'll manage day-to-day procurement activities and contribute to process improvements as we scale our compute capabilities. In this role, you will: Review and validate Purchase Requests in Zip for appropriate documentation, contract alignment, and accurate accounting treatment Manage Purchase Orders including reviews, updates, and closure when fully billed or no longer expected, maintaining organized tracking systems Provide invoice coding guidance for POs, invoices, and standard transactions Conduct vendor analysis to identify cost savings opportunities and provide data to support business negotiations Contribute to process improvement initiatives to standardize workflows and support automation efforts Support month-end close activities including expense reviews, accruals, and reclass journal entries Train and onboard business owners and vendors on procurement processes and best practices Maintain vendor and stakeholder relationships and support performance efforts You may be a good fit if you: 4+ years of experience in procurement or sourcing, with exposure to infrastructure operations Familiarity with compute infrastructure components (servers, GPUs, networking, cloud services) Solid understanding of procure-to-pay processes and purchase order management Experience with procurement systems (Zip, Coupa, SAP Ariba, or similar) Experience with vendor analysis and cost savings identification Track record of contributing to process improvement initiatives Strong analytical skills with proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets Cross-functional collaboration experience working with diverse business stakeholders Business partnership mindset with ability to communicate complex processes to non-finance users Comfort working in fast-paced, high-growth environments with some ambiguity Strong candidates may have: Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain, Finance, or related field Experience in technology company procurement or IT sourcing Familiarity with cloud procurement models (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) Understanding of datacenter operations including power and infrastructure basics Experience supporting month-end close and financial reporting Background in vendor management and relationship development Awareness of financial controls and compliance requirements The expected base compensation for this position is below. Our total compensation package for full-time employees includes equity, benefits, and may include incentive compensation. Annual Salary: $160,000—$190,000 USD 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.
