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 rapidly scaling our compute infrastructure across a portfolio of datacenter builds with multiple developer, neocloud, and cloud partnerships. We're looking for a DC Portfolio Planning & Execution Lead to drive the planning and framework that ensures every site moves smoothly from the front-end phases through design, construction, equipment delivery, commissioning, and operational readiness. This role owns the portfolio-level operating system: translating capacity supply pipeline into integrated project plans that span every phase of delivery, building the tooling and automation that runs it at scale, and maintaining Anthropic's datacenter capacity catalog — a lifecycle view of our fleet that supports both execution orchestration and steady-state capacity planning. You will build this function from the ground up. Responsibilities Portfolio schedule & catalog Manage the integrated master plan for each site across the portfolio — stitching power ramp, design, construction, sourcing, deployment, and operations readiness into a single coordinated schedule with clear milestones and dependencies Develop and maintain Anthropic's datacenter catalog for deployed and in-progress capacity. Manage the portfolio-level view of physical infrastructure & cluster interfaces across all sites and partners to enable planning decisions such as equipment fungibility, accelerator platforms, tech insertion, or workload allocation Stage gates & execution tracking Define and run the stage gates and decision locks for cluster delivery — from lease execution to design lock through procurement, construction, equipment installation, commissioning, and handover Drive gate reviews, manage exceptions, and track the downstream impact of deviations across the portfolio Manage portfolio reviews and risk tracking for DC Infra leadership and Compute Supply Tooling & process Develop tooling and automation to enable cross-functional planning flow-down from datacenter capacity availability dates Partner with Design, Supply Chain, Construction, and DC Ops program leads to drive cross-pillar process improvements as portfolio scales You may be a good fit if you Are familiar with the full datacenter buildout lifecycle: pipeline → design → sourcing → construction → Cx → deployment Have run integrated portfolio or master-schedule planning across a fleet of capital projects (datacenter, energy, fab, or similar) where multiple functional orgs each own a phase Have built a stage-gate or decision-lock system from scratch and gotten functional leads to adopt it Have re-architected a deployment or delivery process at scale and can point to the cycle-time or throughput result Build the tooling yourself using AI-assisted development — stand up planning dashboards, schedule automation, and data pipelines from Smartsheet/P6/partner systems Proactively surface schedule risk across functions — comfortable flagging a problem in someone else's domain before it becomes a slip Track record of driving outcomes through influence with cross-functional partners Strong candidates may also have
