AI Full-Stack Engineer

Position Overview

Tanagram’s mission is to enable developers to work at the speed of thought by turning hard-won lessons into real-time guardrails in code reviews and more. As an AI Full-Stack Engineer, you will bridge the gap between research and application—building our product end-to-end with a primary focus on backend systems (with UI development on the horizon). You’ll work in a small, dynamic team, owning experiments and proof-of-concepts that directly tackle high-value customer challenges.

Key Responsibilities

• Talk directly to users: understand requirements, seek feedback, and iterate based on their input.
• Evaluate and build with cutting-edge AI tools such as LLM-Evals, Guardrails for AI, and code-writing agents.
• Build services to ingest data from platforms like Github, Slack, and Confluence.
• Deploy and utilize reasoning models like Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct.
• Eagerly identify and implement improvements to enhance performance and scalability.
• Ensure systems are efficient, maintainable, and well-monitored.
• Shape our product roadmap by influencing project sequencing and proposing new ideas.
• Collaborate closely with founders and design teams to define high-level product concepts.
• Contribute to various initiatives to drive company growth and day-to-day operations.

Required Qualifications

• Several years of individual contributor experience balancing speed with scalable implementations (senior engineer level preferred).
• Hands-on experience building with LLMs and a strong intuition for leveraging models effectively.
• Proven work examples that demonstrate reliable and tastefully designed solutions.
• Strong self-direction and motivation to independently seek out high-value tasks in a rapidly changing environment.
• Clear and decisive communication on both technical and strategic matters, with the ability to contribute critical ideas.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working on parsers and compilers (e.g. LLVM, Typescript), or with type systems.
• Familiarity with search and/or indexing technologies.
• Previous startup experience or having founded a startup.

Benefits & Perks

• Challenging work with the latest advances in LLM techniques.
• Top-of-market Compensation with salary ranging from $160,000 to $240,000 USD and equity ranging from 0.5% to 1.5% (with flexibility between cash and equity in an offer).
• Employee-friendly equity terms including low FMV, early exercise, and extended exercise.
• Your choice of MacBook Pro plus a stipend for computer/office equipment.
• Food stipend and meal reimbursements.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Unlimited PTO.
• A relatively un-chaotic working environment where stability meets growth.
• An opportunity to lead and shape our company’s future.
