Claude Corps Fellow

United States

About Claude Corps

Claude Corps — a partnership between CodePath and Anthropic — places early-career fellows inside nonprofits, government agencies, and public-interest organizations for a year to put AI to work on problems that matter. Fellows embed full-time at a host organization — building real solutions with Claude, teaching the people around them to do the same, and leaving behind something that keeps running after they're gone.

The first cohort begins October 19, 2026. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, with a deadline of July 17, 2026 for consideration in the first cohort.

About the Role

Over a year, embedded at a single organization, you'll do whatever moves the needle for your host — and that will look different month to month. We're looking for utility players: people who can build, teach, scope, and translate — and who don't treat any of that work as beneath them. The hard part is doing excellent work inside an organization that has stakeholders who have difficult constraints and less experience working with Claude.

Responsibilities

Discover and scope. Spend real time understanding what your host organization actually needs. Pull usage data, talk to the people doing the work, and define projects in sprints with clear outcomes.

Build with Claude. Ship working solutions — agents, automations, internal tools, evaluation harnesses, integrations — that make a process faster, cheaper, or possible for the first time. Some of this will be ambitious; some will be a dashboard or a tracker that just needs to exist.

Enable the organization. Run trainings for mixed technical and non-technical audiences. Turn three or four colleagues into the people others go to with AI questions. Your job isn't done when the tool works — it's done when someone else can own it.

Hand off well. Sit with the person who'll own your work after you leave. Watch them break it. Write the runbook. Make sure it survives you.

Exercise judgment. Catch your own wrong answers. Tell a stakeholder "we shouldn't build that" when it's true. Cut the part of the demo that isn't landing.

Prerequisites

Completion of both AI Fluency and Claude 101 is required. Proof of completion must be submitted with your application.

You May Be a Good Fit If You

  • Are 18 or older with less than two years of professional work experience — we care about what you've done and how you think, not your degree
  • Have built something end-to-end on your own — a project, tool, or automation you scoped, shipped, and can talk about honestly, including what you'd do differently
  • Have a genuine, demonstrated pull toward social-impact work — you've spent real time in or around nonprofits, public service, education, health, or community organizations, and can articulate why
  • Take initiative without a PM tracking you, and stay coachable while doing it
  • Can explain something technical to a non-technical room and read whether it's landing
  • Are energized — not deflated — by ambiguity, resource constraints, and problems that turn out to be different than advertised
  • Are authorized to work in the United States (we are not able to sponsor visas for this program) and open to relocation within the US to work in person at a host organization

Strong Candidates May Also Have

  • Experience shipping inside a small team or organization where you wore multiple hats
  • A track record of teaching, mentoring, or running workshops for non-technical audiences
  • Domain exposure in one of our host sectors (public health, education, workforce, civic tech, social services)
  • Experience with agent frameworks, evals, or production LLM deployments

What You'll Get

  • A full-time salary of $85,000 and benefits for the fellowship year, plus Claude API and tooling access
  • Relocation support for Fellows placed more than 100 miles from their current residence
  • A onboarding bootcamp with Anthropic before you start at your host
  • Dedicated support, regular cohort sessions with other Fellows, and direct access to Anthropic engineers through office hours
  • A portfolio entry that's still running six months after you leave, and incredible references to go with it

Interview Process

A short application with a couple of written questions → a practical take-home assessment → a 25-minute conversation → a final-round Super Day, consisting of two 1:1 conversations. 

Claude Corps is a partnership between CodePath and Anthropic. CodePath is the employer of record for this fellowship.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
