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 The Role
Anthropic is seeking a Program Manager to own and drive our student outreach strategy, establishing Claude as the AI platform of choice for the next generation of builders, researchers, and creators at universities worldwide. You'll lead flagship programs including the Claude Campus Ambassador Program and Claude Builder Clubs, while developing new initiatives that embody Anthropic's mission of helping humanity navigate the AI transition. This is a high-ownership role where you'll define the vision, build the infrastructure, and personally drive execution for how Anthropic engages with student communities globally. Beyond keeping programs running smoothly, you'll make real strategic decisions and own the student narrative company-wide. We're looking for someone who thrives with significant autonomy, can operate effectively with ambiguity, and has the judgment to make consequential calls about where we invest our resources.

- Lead the Claude Campus Ambassador Program, recruiting, training, and supporting student ambassadors at universities worldwide
- Build and scale Claude Builder Clubs to foster student communities around AI development
- Design and execute brand activations and event programming tailored for student audiences

- Manage student hackathon partnerships at scale, including sponsorships, judging, and mentorship programs
- Lead outreach efforts to grow Claude awareness and usage on university campuses globally
- Develop new programs that apply Anthropic's mission of helping humanity through the AI transition to the student audience
- Collaborate with product, sales, developer relations, marketing and communications teams to ensure student programs align with broader company goals
- Track and report on program metrics, continuously optimizing for impact and scale
Qualifications
Must-haves
- 5+ years of experience in program management, developer relations, community building, or campus engagement, with increasing scope and ownership over time
- Proven track record of building and scaling ambassador or community programs in education or edtech space
- Track record of making strategic decisions with incomplete information and delivering results
- Experience operating autonomously and driving outcomes without heavy oversight
- Strong communication skills—you'll represent Anthropic to university leadership, partners, and across internal teams
- Proven ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives while keeping execution sharp
- Comfort with travel for campus events and hackathons (estimated 5-10%)
Nice-to-haves
- Experience building campus or student programs at a major technology company

- International program management experience across multiple regions
- Experience with brand strategy or experiential marketing
The annual compensation range for this role is listed below. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
Annual Salary
$255,000—$320,000 USD
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
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.
Your safety matters to us.
To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links—visit anthropic.com/careers directly for confirmed position openings.
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 JobsCustomer Program Manager CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Customer Program Manager role qualify for CPT?
Yes, if your degree program includes coursework in project management, business strategy, client relations, or operations. The role must be an integral part of your curriculum, not just tangentially related. Your DSO evaluates fit based on your specific program requirements, so bring a copy of the job description to that meeting.
How do I explain CPT to a hiring manager unfamiliar with it?
Frame CPT as school-authorized, employer-sponsored practical training that functions like any standard work authorization. The employer doesn't file anything with USCIS, your school issues the authorization. Prepare a one-page CPT explainer covering your authorized dates, hours, and the role's connection to your degree. Many hiring managers in program or customer success functions haven't encountered CPT before.
Can I do part-time CPT for a Customer Program Manager role?
Part-time CPT, under 20 hours per week, is common for students still in coursework and doesn't affect OPT eligibility regardless of duration. Some Customer Program Manager internships or co-op arrangements accommodate this. Confirm your authorized hours match what the employer actually needs before signing anything.
Where can I find Customer Program Manager jobs open to CPT students?
Migrate Mate lists Customer Program Manager roles at employers with demonstrated visa sponsorship history, which correlates strongly with openness to CPT. Filtering by companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications in customer success or program management functions narrows your search to employers already familiar with international work authorization.
What happens to my CPT authorization if the employer changes my role title or responsibilities?
CPT authorization is tied to the specific role and employer listed on your I-20. If your job title shifts significantly or your duties change substantially, you need to notify your DSO immediately. A new or amended CPT authorization may be required. Working outside your authorized scope puts your F-1 status at risk.
