About this job

About the Role Anthropic's inference fleet serves Claude to millions of users across our own products and the world's largest cloud platforms.

The Inference System Dynamics team is responsible for understanding that whole system and holding it to a high bar across four dimensions: throughput, latency, reliability, and correctness. We measure how the fleet performs against its theoretical performance frontier, run cross-layer investigations to explain the gaps, and own the correctness checks that make sure Claude's outputs are right, not just fast, across…

This is a short summary.
