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 seeking an experienced Legal Program Manager to join our Commercial Legal team, focused on contracts and governance. This role is central to Anthropic’s compliance efforts on the commercial side: you will embed deeply in our sell-side contracting processes, partner across functions, and help build the controls, workflows, and governance infrastructure that revenue-generating activities require as the company matures.

You will sit at the intersection of Legal, Finance, Revenue Operations, Sales, Partnerships, Engineering, and Accounting — ensuring that commercial contracting practices meet our governance and compliance standards, with particular emphasis on revenue recognition workstreams. This is a high-visibility role where you will be expected to operate as a player-coach: managing and improving contracting processes yourself while building scalable systems, templates, and playbooks as the function grows.

Key responsibilities

• Partner with Commercial Legal to continuously improve the end-to-end commercial contracting lifecycle for sell-side agreements (SaaS/API subscriptions, enterprise licenses, partnership and channel agreements, statements of work, and order forms), ensuring alignment with revenue recognition requirements under ASC 606

• Partner with Finance and Accounting to ensure commercial contract terms and structures support accurate revenue recognition, including proper identification of performance obligations, variable consideration, contract modific
