Senior Manager of Infrastructure Tax

Job description

Anthropic is making significant, sustained investment in compute infrastructure to support our AI safety mission. We are looking for a Senior Manager, Infrastructure Tax to work alongside the Infrastructure Tax Lead on that portfolio

The Lead owns the integrated tax position across the portfolio. This role carries the day‑to‑day execution of it: running intake on individual deals, owning defined workstreams end to end, building the models and documentation, and coordinating the work across Legal, Technical Accounting, FP&A, International Tax, Transfer Pricing, and Provision

This is a hands‑on role for a tax practitioner who wants to own workstreams on one of Anthropic’s largest capital commitments. It reports to the Infrastructure Tax Lead

Run deal intake for individual infrastructure transactions: gather facts on site specs, counterparty structure, commercial terms, and timing; prepare the structure review and term‑sheet input for the Lead’s sign‑off early enough to shape the deal

Analyze service versus lease characterization, entity structure, and contract tax provisions for assigned deals, working with the Tax Transactions and Tax Planning teams and escalating judgment calls to the Infra Tax Lead

Build and maintain the after‑tax deal economics models: bonus depreciation on large‑scale buildouts, NOL utilization, and scenario analysis; work with Tax Planning, Tax Operations, and Infrastructure Accounting so the tax assumptions in deal approval packages are accurate

Prepare the tax‑side inputs for Technical Accounting on lease‑versus‑purchase treatment, consolidation questions, capitalization policy, and book‑tax differences across deal structures

Execute on datacenter entity structures across jurisdictions under the Lead’s direction: entity formation, operationalization with local teams, contemporaneous documentation, withholding on cross‑border financing, permanent establishment analysis, and debt‑versus‑equity characterization

Support transfer pricing on the infrastructure footprint: gather the facts, maintain the documentation for intercompany compute pricing, and coordinate benchmarking

Prepare the quarterly inputs for the tax provision team on new structures and deferred tax positions so there are no surprises between deal close and quarter close

Draft and maintain infrastructure tax playbooks, issue‑spotting checklists, and internal trackers, and keep them current as deals close
