Data Science, Finance & Strategy

About the Role

Anthropic's business metrics change quickly. New models, products and pricing land every few weeks, and each one moves the numbers in ways leadership needs to understand and act on quickly.

The Finance Analytics & Business Intelligence team is hiring a senior individual contributor to own how finance leadership reviews key business metrics. You'll run the weekly company metrics update and forum, explain what is driving revenue and usage across products, customers and models, and turn open-ended business questions into clear, data-driven answers. You'll also build what makes those answers repeatable and scalable: governed metric definitions, executive dashboards, and Claude-powered workflows for recurring analysis. The work is technical, fast-moving and highly visible, and it spans Finance, Product, Go-to-Market, Data Science and Data Engineering.

In this role, you will:

• Own the weekly company metrics update and forum: shape the story the numbers tell, evolve the structure and content as fast as the business changes
• Define the metrics that matter: help establish the headline KPIs leadership uses to track the business, and the driver views beneath them.
• Surface macro trends: explain what is driving growth across products, customers, and channels, and flag leading indicators early
• Lead deep dives on executive questions: take a broad question from leadership, put a measurement approach around it, and work with partner teams to deliver a clear, defensible answer
• Track performance against plan: explain where actuals differ from forecast and why it matters
• Partner across teams: work with finance leadership, product and GTM finance and strategy, data science, and data engineering to agree on how we measure the business, so everyone uses the same numbers.
• Raise the bar: land narratives in executive forums and up-level the team’s finance analytics practice by example

You might be a good fit if you:

• Have run an executive metrics forum: you've owned a recurring business review for senior leadership, including its structure, content and discussion.
• Land narratives with executives: your analyses have changed business decisions, and you can simplify for senior leaders without losing rigor
• Put shape around ambiguity: you’ve personally defined the measurement approach for questions nobody knew how to answer, without waiting for a fully specified ask
• Stay hands-on at senior scope: you still write the SQL and Python yourself, and you’d rather ship a defensible v1 with honest error bars than wait for perfect data
• Are inherently curious: you go one level deeper than asked and are energized by how fast models, products, and the market are moving
• Thrive amid shifting priorities: you juggle multiple fast-moving work streams and stay effective when the plan changes weekly
• Work fluently with modern tooling: you’re strong at data visualization, use Claude and AI tools as force multipliers in analysis and BI, and can self-serve your own workflows across SQL, Python, dbt, and a cloud warehouse

Strong candidates may also have:

• Significant experience in finance analytics, business analytics or data science, including direct partnership with senior leadership
• Revenue or growth analytics experience at a usage-based business (cloud, API or marketplace)
• Ownership of a company or executive business review
• Experience designing evals or benchmarks for AI models or products
• Fluency in the LLM model and product landscape
• Experience with a semantic or metrics layer
• Dimensional modeling and warehouse design experience (grain, SCDs, point-in-time correctness)
• Cloud platform experience (AWS, GCP) with orchestration, CI/CD for data, and testing/observability
