Founding Agentic Engineer

Annora

About The Company

Annora AI is a venture-backed company expanding the capacity and profitability of America's industrial base. We turn manufacturers into software-defined factories by building an AI-native OS powered by manufacturing-specific knowledge and agents.

We work with manufacturers on product, quoting, and the operational systems that sit on top of their ERP. Our customers build configurable industrial equipment sold into factories, fabs, and production operations. We are setting up a software factory: agentically enabled software that keeps evolving. We need a founding agentic engineer to own the agents that sit on those systems — and the factory that produces them.

What you'll do

  • Own the agent layer and the software factory that produces it: tools, workflows, and the systems they call
  • Make complex manufacturing and quoting workflows work as agents, not demos
  • Build and ship against the systems they already run — ERP, CRM, spreadsheets, tribal knowledge
  • Turn one-off customer work into reusable agent behavior the next deployment can run
  • Raise the reliability of everything the agents do — permissions, evals, failure, audit
  • Work directly with the team and ship

What we're looking for

  • 4+ years of professional software engineering. Production work on backends, integrations, or agent systems counts.
  • You've shipped real production systems, not just prototypes or chat demos
  • You can own a system end-to-end
  • You're strong at making complex B2B operations feel simple in software
  • You can communicate about agents in plain language, not just write prompts
  • Must be authorized to work in the U.S.
  • Ownership and shipped work matter more than title

What this is

High ownership. Early equity. A chance to define how the agents work.
