Logistics
Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

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.
Your safety matters to us.

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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Account Executive Jobs at Anthropic
Frame Your Experience Around Enterprise AI Sales
Anthropic's Account Executive roles focus on selling to research institutions, government agencies, and technical enterprises. Position your resume around complex, consultative sales cycles and technical buyers, not transactional or consumer-facing experience.
Clarify Your Visa Type Before Applying
Anthropic sponsors H-1B, H-1B1 visa, and E-3 visas. If you're Australian, the E-3 is faster and avoids the H-1B lottery entirely. Confirm which category fits your citizenship before your first recruiter conversation so you can answer the sponsorship question directly.
Align Your Outreach to Anthropic's Hiring Cycles
Account Executive roles at Anthropic often open ahead of fiscal quarters when new revenue targets are set. Tracking open roles consistently and applying early in a posting's lifecycle improves your chances before headcount fills.
Prepare for Sponsorship Conversations at the Offer Stage
Once you reach the offer stage, Anthropic's legal or HR team will confirm your visa category and timeline. Have your current I-94 status, any existing work authorization end dates, and your degree credentials ready so the filing process starts without delays.
Search Verified Sponsoring Employers on Migrate Mate
Targeting companies that have actually sponsored visa categories relevant to you saves time. Use Migrate Mate to filter Account Executive openings at employers with a confirmed sponsorship history for your specific visa type.
Understand the H-1B Cap Timing if You Need a New Petition
If you require a new H-1B cap-subject petition, USCIS registration opens each March for an October 1 start date. Plan your job search timeline so an offer and petition can align with that window, since Anthropic cannot file outside it for cap-subject cases.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Anthropic sponsor H-1B visas for Account Executives?
Yes, Anthropic sponsors H-1B visas for Account Executive roles. The company also sponsors H-1B1 visas for Chilean and Singaporean nationals and E-3 visas for Australian citizens. If you need sponsorship, confirm your visa category early in the recruiting process so Anthropic's legal team can assess your timeline before an offer is extended.
How do I apply for Account Executive jobs at Anthropic?
Applications go through Anthropic's careers page. The process typically includes a recruiter screen, a sales skills assessment, and multiple rounds focused on enterprise sales strategy and technical fluency with AI products. You can also find and track Anthropic's Account Executive openings filtered by visa sponsorship on Migrate Mate, which surfaces roles from employers with confirmed sponsorship history.
Which visa types are commonly used for Account Executive roles at Anthropic?
The H-1B is the most widely used work visa for Account Executive roles at Anthropic, though the H-1B1 visa and E-3 are strong alternatives for eligible nationals. Account Executive positions typically qualify as specialty occupations under USCIS standards, given the degree requirements common for enterprise sales roles at AI companies. Your citizenship determines which category is available to you.
What qualifications does Anthropic expect for Account Executive candidates who need visa sponsorship?
Anthropic generally looks for experience selling complex technical products to enterprise or research buyers, with a strong preference for candidates who can engage with technical stakeholders in AI, government, or scientific research contexts. For H-1B eligibility, the role must qualify as a specialty occupation requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a relevant field, which most Account Executive positions at AI companies satisfy.
How do I time my job search if I need H-1B sponsorship for an Account Executive role at Anthropic?
If you need a new cap-subject H-1B petition, USCIS opens registration each March for an October 1 start. That means you should be interviewing and moving toward an offer between January and March so Anthropic can submit your registration on time. If you're on OPT or a grace period, confirm your authorization end date with HR early so the petition timeline is clear.
