AI Product Engineer

We're looking for a full-stack engineer to own and drive AI agent workflows at Anara (formerly Unriddle). This is an opportunity to reinvent how scientists discover information and collaborate. You'll build the technical foundation for features that will transform scientific research for decades to come. Our tech stack consists of Next.js, TRPC, Tailwind CSS, Drizzle and Prisma for databases, AWS (SST/EC2), NextAuth, Turborepo and Python. We value hands-on experience over fancy credentials. We're most interested in engineers who have built interesting side projects or contributed to fun open source work. What you'll be doing: Own the design, implementation and optimization of our AI agent workflows and supporting infrastructure, ensuring reliability, scalability and rapid iteration. Collaborate closely with the rest of the engineering team on our RAG pipeline, continuously improving response quality, latency and robustness. Monitor and optimize system performance and costs, making pragmatic tradeoffs to keep us lean and moving fast. Establish best practices for prompt engineering and deployment of new models and workflows. Own the design and automation of eval pipelines to continuously measure, benchmark and improve AI agent quality and reliability. You're likely a good fit if: You are quick, scrappy and first and foremost a hacker/builder - comfortable moving from idea to production in days, not weeks. You have experience shipping complex backend and AI/ML features to real users. You've worked on full stack agent behaviors and have hands-on experience with LLMs, RAG, and agent architectures. You have worked in a high-growth, fast-paced environment (ideally another startup) and can drive things forward with relatively little oversight.

Anara is AI for scientific advancement. We help researchers understand, organize and write scientific documents, together. We started working on Anara 18 months ago. In that time: we've grown to 2M users spanning hundreds of major colleges and research-led companies, we reached $3M in yearly revenue and are fast approaching $4M, 200M+ people have seen our content across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and we raised $2.4M from YC and the founders of Github and Reddit. Looking ahead, we're expanding beyond summarization and writing assistance to address the broader challenges of information overload faced by academics and research teams. We're a small, tight-knit team with huge ambitions. As a founding member of the team, you'll be instrumental in helping us scale revenue from $3M to $10M and then $10M to $100M+.
