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 Web Editorial Designer specializing in content-driven web design and digital storytelling to help bring our AI research, insights, and complex technical concepts to life through compelling editorial web experiences. In this role, you'll craft thoughtfully designed web pages that transform dense research papers, policy insights, and AI safety concepts into accessible, engaging digital narratives that educate and inform diverse audiences.
You'll collaborate closely with our Research, Policy, Communications, and Editorial teams to translate groundbreaking AI research and safety work into visually compelling web experiences. Your expertise in editorial design, content hierarchy, and digital storytelling will be crucial in making complex AI concepts accessible to researchers, policymakers, journalists, and the general public.
This role sits at the intersection of design, and technology, requiring someone who can think strategically about content presentation while executing exceptional design craft.
Responsibilities:
- Lead the design of web experiences that transform complex AI research, policy papers, and technical documentation into accessible, engaging digital narratives using CMS platforms
- Build flexible design systems that maintain brand integrity while adapting to different content types and publication needs
- Transform technical research into compelling digital narratives through thoughtful information architecture, data visualization, and interactive storytelling
- Establish and evolve comprehensive design systems, standards, and workflows specifically for editorial content, setting organizational standards for research publication design and cross-team collaboration processes
- Pioneer new methodologies for presenting technical research online
- Work strategically with design engineers to translate complex editorial designs into scalable, performant web experiences, providing clear design specifications, technical requirements, and iterative feedback while understanding development constraints and opportunities to enhance editorial content presentation
You may be a good fit if you:
- Have a strong portfolio demonstrating experience in editorial design, whether in digital publishing, news organizations, research institutions, or content-focused web design, with examples of transforming complex information into clear, engaging web experiences
- Demonstrate deep understanding of typography, information hierarchy, and content organization principles, with experience designing for long-form content, research publications, or educational materials
- Have experience working with researchers, academics, journalists, or policy experts to translate complex subject matter into accessible web content
- Can create clear, accurate visualizations and infographics that support editorial content
- Have hands-on experience with content management systems and low-code tools, with understanding of how to optimize for editorial workflows
- Strong commitment to creating accessible web experiences that serve diverse audiences, including those accessing technical content in multiple languages or with varying levels of subject matter expertise
- Experience working in cross-functional teams with non-design stakeholders, particularly content creators, researchers, or editorial staff, with ability to translate feedback into effective design solutions
- Balance high editorial standards with practical constraints, making thoughtful tradeoffs while maintaining accuracy and quality in fast-paced environments
The expected base compensation for this position is below. Our total compensation package for full-time employees includes equity, benefits, and may include incentive compensation.

**Education requirements: We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
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.
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.
