Engineering Manager, UI Platform

About the role Anthropic is seeking an engineering leader to lead the teams responsible for building all consumer‑facing Claude experiences—including web, mobile, desktop, and browser extensions. In this role, you'll shape how millions of users interact with Claude daily, driving the technical vision and execution for interfaces that are intuitive, responsive, and push the boundaries of what AI‑powered applications can be. This is a highly technical leadership role. While you'll be responsible for building and guiding engineering teams, you'll remain deeply hands‑on—steering architectural decisions and staying close to the work. You'll partner closely with Product, Design, Research, and Go-to-Market teams to not only build what's on the roadmap, but to anticipate where the product needs to go next. We're looking for someone who can see around corners and help us skate to where the puck is going. We're building at an extraordinary pace in a rapidly evolving space. You should thrive in environments where priorities shift quickly, where you're expected to ship fast without sacrificing quality, and where the problems you're solving don't have established playbooks. Responsibilities Lead and grow the UI engineering teams responsible for Claude's consumer products across web, mobile (iOS/Android), desktop, and browser extensions Define the technical vision and architecture for our frontend systems, ensuring they scale with our rapidly growing user base Stay deeply technical—participate in design reviews and architectural decisions while maintaining a broad view of the product Partner closely with Product and Design to shape product direction, bringing an informed point of view on what we should build and how users will experience it Drive engineering excellence through best practices in performance, accessibility, and cross‑platform consistency Build and mentor a world‑class team of frontend engineers, creating an environment where people do the best work of their careers Collaborate across functions—including Research, Trust & Safety, and Go-to-Market—to ensure our products meet the needs of users and the business Navigate ambiguity and make sound decisions quickly in a fast‑moving environment You may be a good fit if you Have 10+ years of experience building consumer‑facing web and mobile applications at scale, with several years in engineering leadership roles Have led teams that shipped products used by millions of users, with a track record of delivering high‑quality, responsive, and accessible interfaces Remain deeply technical despite your leadership responsibilities—you can dive into the code, debug complex issues, and make informed architectural tradeoffs Have strong opinions on product and design, developed through years of building consumer experiences, and can advocate effectively for the user Excel at cross‑functional partnership and can build trust quickly with Product, Design, Research, and other stakeholders Thrive in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments and can balance speed with quality Are excited by the challenge of building interfaces for AI‑powered products, where the interaction paradigms are still being invented Care deeply about craft—you notice the details that make an experience feel polished and intuitive Strong candidates may also have Experience building products across multiple platforms (web, iOS, Android, desktop, browser extensions) and understanding the unique constraints of each Background in building real‑time, interactive applications where latency and performance are critical Experience with modern frontend frameworks and architectures (React, React Native, TypeScript, etc.) Familiarity with AI/ML‑powered products and the unique UX challenges they present A track record of building and scaling engineering teams through periods of rapid growth Experience establishing frontend platform capabilities that enable faster iteration across multiple product surfaces Annual Salary
