About the role
Claude Frontier Academy is where organizations nominate their strongest people to build deep, hands-on skills with Claude. Backed by a $100 million commitment, Anthropic aims to train 10,000 Frontier Deployed Engineers by the end of 2027. The Academy’s first program, the Frontier Deployed Engineer (FDE) Residency, brings engineers from leading customers and partners together in cohorts, and more programs will follow. We’re looking for a Marketing Lead to make the Academy a name the market knows and a credential people are proud to earn.
As the Academy’s first dedicated marketer, you’ll own how it shows up in the world. You’re a creative, versatile marketer who thinks in terms of brand and communications and also knows how to position, launch, and grow programs. You’ll turn each program launch into a major market moment, celebrate milestones like new cohorts and the first badges earned, and build a community of graduates who help tell the story.
Because the Academy serves both partners and customers, this role will sit on our Partner Marketing team. You’ll work directly with partners and customers to secure their participation in announcements and bring them into our launch and amplification plans. You’ll help shape the Academy’s strategy and annual plan and represent marketing with senior leaders, while staying hands-on enough to write the first draft yourself. Partners and customers already engage with other Anthropic education and training programs, so you’ll be thoughtful about how the Academy fits alongside them. If you’ve built a branded program at a B2B technology company and want to do it again at a much bigger scale, this role is for you.
