Description
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.
At Anthropic, we believe new AI capabilities are best achieved through secure foundations, not in spite of them. As capabilities grow more advanced, it is critical that progress moves forward safely and for the benefit of all society. It is the reason why security sits at the center of our work, and not as an afterthought.
We're looking for a systems-oriented Software Engineer to push the performance and reliability of Claude Code and the JavaScript runtime that powers it. Claude Code is our terminal-first, agentic coding tool, and a huge part of what makes it fast—and what lets us ship quickly—is Bun. This role sits at that intersection: you'll work deep in the runtime, the kernel interfaces it sits on top of, and the agent loop on top of it, making everything faster, leaner, and more reliable.
Your work will also flow through to the Claude Code Agent SDK, Cowork, and other Labs projects that build on the same foundations. This is low-level work. We're looking for someone who has spent years writing production C, C++ and Rust, who thinks in syscalls and allocators, and who gets excited about shaving microseconds and megabytes off hot paths.
Responsibilities
Design, build, and optimize core systems inside Bun and Claude Code—runtime internals, I/O paths, memory management, and the agent execution loop <p&g
