Design Engineer, Web

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. The Creative Studio is Anthropic's in-house creative team responsible for the brand expression across Anthropic and Claude. We care about craft, making things by hand and using AI when it makes sense. We're looking for a senior Design Engineer to join our Brand Web team, working at the intersection of design and engineering to shape how Anthropic's web properties get built. In this role, you'll own significant surfaces of anthropic.com and claude.com — from interactive marketing pages and data visualization systems to the internal tooling that keeps our content operations running at scale. You'll work as a peer to designers, engineers, and brand and content teams across the company, setting technical direction on the work you lead and partnering with platform and product engineering teams on the infrastructure that underpins it. We're actively growing the engineering function on the Web team, and you'll help shape how it operates as it scales. Rapid prototyping is core to how we work, and you'll be expected to move from concept to production with both speed and craft. Responsibilities Own the architecture and implementation of significant surfaces of claude.com and/or anthropic.com , including design system code, page templates, interactive experiences, and data visualization systems. Set the technical direction, not just deliver against it. Lead the technical side of major web initiatives end-to-end, such as migrations, redesigns, and new product surfaces, including scoping, architecture decisions, partner coordination, and shipping. Define and evolve our headless CMS architecture, including content modeling, structured data workflows, editorial governance in code, and the systems that make the CMS usable by non-engineers across the company. Build creative tooling and internal systems that change how the team works: Claude-powered design system tools, page generators, content workflows, and MCP integrations. This is where the team's leverage compounds, and we expect this role to actively grow it. Partner directly with Web Platforms, Security, and Growth Product Engineering on the surfaces that span teams: deployments, performance, technical SEO, experimentation infrastructure, and incident response. Be the technical owner those teams partner with on our behalf. Make and document architecture and technical standards decisions: framework choices, performance budgets, accessibility implementation, code quality, and frontend infrastructure. Raise the bar on craft for engineers across the team. Build and evolve the localization infrastructure that supports our growing international presence, including content modeling for translation workflows, integration with translation vendors, and the patterns that make localized pages performant and maintainable across markets. Mentor mid-level engineers and contribute to hiring. As the team grows, this role should be one of the technical leaders shaping how we work. You may be a good fit if you Have deep experience building and shipping production web properties at scale, including ownership of architecture decisions and the consequences of them in production. Are experts in modern frontend frameworks (Next.js / React) and have strong opinions about when to use them, when not to, and how to structure them for long-lived sites. Have led work on headless CMS platforms. Not just used them, but shaped the content model, the publishing experience, and the operational governance around them. Have built internal tools and creative tooling that other people on a team came to depend on. The work you're most proud of is probably something that didn't exist before you d
