Job Description
Tanagrams mission is to accelerate agentic coding. Were starting by building a tool that captures hard-won lessons buried in codebases code reviews incident post-mortems and Slack chats. We turn those lessons into real-time guardrails that flag or fix risky patterns the moment they reach a pull request and eventually at code generation time so that teams of people and agents can ship faster and avoid disaster.
Were building a small team of exceptional engineers who are excited about the future of agentic coding and think deeply about codebases from first principles. Were looking for meticulous high-agency people who have good judgment around what problems to solve the skills to build a great product around it and the hunger to iterate towards better versions.

Well-crafted tastefully-design work examples.
Bonus points:
Experience working on programming language tooling: compilers/parsers/indexers (e.g. LLVM tree-sitter SCIP) or type systems (e.g. Typescript itself or Sorbet).
