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
Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position

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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Sales Manager Jobs at Anthropic Jobs
Frame your experience around technical sales cycles
Anthropic's Sales Manager roles involve selling AI research infrastructure and enterprise API access, not off-the-shelf software. Tailor your resume to show experience closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals in scientific, developer tools, or enterprise technology environments.
Confirm E-3 eligibility before applying
Australian citizens can pursue the E-3 pathway, which bypasses the H-1B lottery entirely. Verify your degree field aligns with the Sales Manager role's specialty occupation standard before your interview, since the LCA must be filed by Anthropic before your visa appointment.
Search for open Sales Manager roles on Migrate Mate
Anthropic posts Sales Manager positions across enterprise, partnerships, and research-focused tracks. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Anthropic roles that have active visa sponsorship, so you're targeting openings where sponsorship is confirmed rather than assumed.
Request cap-exempt or premium processing clarity early
If you're currently in H-1B status with another employer, an Anthropic transfer is cap-exempt and can be filed immediately. Ask your Anthropic recruiter whether they use USCIS premium processing so you can plan your start date without assuming a standard timeline.
Prepare documentation that connects your degree to the role
USCIS scrutinizes specialty occupation status for Sales Manager petitions more than for engineering roles. Pull together transcripts, any technical certifications, and a clear written narrative showing how your field of study directly supports AI enterprise sales functions.
Target Anthropic's segment-specific sales teams strategically
Anthropic structures its sales org around verticals including research institutions, federal agencies, and commercial enterprises. Identify which segment matches your background and address it explicitly in your cover letter to signal you understand the distinct buyer profiles involved.

Find Sales Manager at Anthropic JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Anthropic sponsor H-1B visas for Sales Managers?
Yes, Anthropic sponsors H-1B visas for Sales Manager roles. The H-1B requires the position to qualify as a specialty occupation, meaning a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field is normally required for entry. Sales Manager roles at Anthropic, given the technical and scientific nature of its products, have supported H-1B sponsorship. Your recruiter can confirm the petition process and whether premium processing is available.
Which visa types are commonly used for Sales Manager roles at Anthropic?
Anthropic sponsors the H-1B, H-1B1, and E-3 for Sales Manager positions. The H-1B applies broadly to international candidates and goes through the annual lottery unless you're transferring from another H-1B employer. The H-1B1 is available only to Chilean and Singaporean nationals. The E-3 is exclusively for Australian citizens and avoids the H-1B lottery, which makes it a strong option if you're eligible.
How do I apply for Sales Manager jobs at Anthropic?
Applications go through Anthropic's careers page, where Sales Manager openings are listed by segment and seniority. You can also browse and filter Anthropic's visa-sponsored Sales Manager roles through Migrate Mate, which surfaces active openings where sponsorship is confirmed. Tailor your application to the specific sales vertical Anthropic is hiring for, whether that's enterprise, research institutions, or public sector accounts.
What qualifications and experience does Anthropic expect for Sales Manager roles?
Anthropic typically looks for candidates with a background in enterprise or consultative sales, ideally in AI, developer tools, cloud infrastructure, or scientific software. A bachelor's degree in a relevant field supports the specialty occupation standard required for H-1B and E-3 sponsorship. Experience managing complex sales cycles with technical buyers, including research teams or engineering leadership, is consistently reflected in how these roles are scoped.
How do I think about visa processing timelines when targeting a Sales Manager role at Anthropic?
Timeline depends on which visa category applies to you. E-3 applicants can move quickly through consular processing, often within a few weeks of receiving employer documents. H-1B transfers for candidates already in status can also close relatively fast if Anthropic uses premium processing, which USCIS currently adjudicates within 15 business days. New H-1B cap cases follow the annual October 1 start date, so factor that into any offer negotiation.
