About Anagram

Anagram is a platform for building interactive apps for websites. We enable marketers to create experiences like product recommenders, lead qualifiers, and adaptive surveys, powered by AI so that they’re personalized to each individual user. With Anagram, somebody with no technical ability can take a custom, personalized experience from idea to launch in minutes.

We recently raised a seed round, and we’re a small team that ships fast. You’ll work directly with the CTO and other founders across our entire stack, from AI agent framework, to data integrations, to end user experience. We value raw talent and drive over resume. No matter what stage of career you’re in, if you’ve built impressive projects, shipped real products, or just learn scary fast, we want to talk to you.

Your focus

• Build a cutting-edge agent platform that makes it easy for anyone to build with AI
• Architect scalable infrastructure to serve millions of personalized experiences across thousands of customer websites in real-time
• Develop a platform for intelligent insights and self-improving systems that help users understand engagement and automatically improve experiences

Ideal candidate

• 2+ years of software engineering experience
• Experience building user-facing web applications

• Experience with AI-native development workflows (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.)
• Familiarity with JavaScript / TypeScript, React, Next.js, and databases
• Backend expertise with a focus on developing data-intensive applications at scale

Values we look for

• High agency → You make things happen
• Love of the game → You build because you want to
• Agile and nimble → You adapt fast
• Truth-seeking → You chase clarity, not ego
• Confident but humble → You’re strong, but coachable
