Anthropic's Editorial Publishing team is seeking a Technical Editor to write, edit, and review material about Anthropic's AI systems, including model cards, risk reports, safety and security reports, and other technical documentation. You will work cross-functionally with teams across Alignment, Interpretability, Safeguards, Policy, and Legal to produce rigorous, public-facing reports on tight timelines.
In this role, you will describe model behavior, training environments, evaluation methods, and their limitations in ways that are legible to both technical experts and general-public readers. You'll take pieces from inception through publication, solicit input from partner teams while maintaining narrative clarity, and manage complex editing processes involving multiple stakeholders.
Key responsibilities include writing and editing technical public-facing reports and blogs, shepherding content through short-deadline cycles, coordinating input from cross-functional partners, and ensuring accuracy and polish under pressure. You'll work with subject matter experts to understand technical concepts, fact-check assertions, and incorporate legal, policy, and reputational considerations into published work. This is a fast-moving environment where processes are still evolving, requiring ownership and adaptability.
