Video Storyteller

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

We’re seeking a Video Storyteller to help show some of the most important work happening in AI today. You’ll have a hand in what we make, as well as how we make it—finding stories, identifying creative ideas, and bringing them to life.

You’ll focus on narrative storytelling—creating videos that help people understand the technology and our products, rather than marketing-led content. This could include translating the complex technology we’re building into videos that make it tangible , documenting and explaining frontier research experiments, profiling the people building this technology, or capturing how others are engaging with and thinking about AI .

This role requires someone who can work independently in a fast-moving environment. You'll help scale our video operation while maintaining quality and exploring new ideas. You must be equally comfortable developing creative concepts and leading the process to bring them to life.

In joining the Brand Communications team, you’ll be part of a small, multidisciplinary group of creatives. We work on a wide array of things—everything from partnering with Rick Rubin on The Way of Code , to Golden Gate Claude , to Claude Plays Pokémon , to video , to technical post-mortems , and conjuring a two-block crowd in the West Village .

Responsibilities:

• Work with research, policy, and communications teams to identify stories and develop creative approaches to tell them
• Produce compelling narrative video content that helps technical and non-technical audiences understand our research
• Manage agencies and other production partners to scale video production
• Build on the visual language of the Anthropic brand
• Travel regularly for productions

You may be a good fit if you have:

• 5+ years of experience producing branded content, documentary films, journalism, or editorial video in fast-moving environments
• Deep understanding of the production process and experience managing agencies, freelancers, and production partners
• Creative storytelling instincts and the ability to shape narratives, not just execute them
• Intellectual curiosity and willingness to learn about unfamiliar, complicated topics

Nice to have:

• Experience in producing creative work beyond video

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.

Annual Salary:

$255,000—$255,000 USD

Logistics

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.
