Staff Software Engineer - Backend

About Anon

Anon is building the platform that enables enterprises to deploy authenticated AI agents for their most critical data workflows.

Anon is solving one of the biggest challenges in enterprise automation : accessing and transforming data trapped behind authentication barriers. Our platform allows AI agents to securely connect to any web-based system, extract unstructured data, and deliver it through modern APIs.

Since 2023, we\u2019ve helped industry leaders transform weeks-long manual processes into automated workflows that complete in minutes. We\u2019ve raised $14M from Union Square Ventures, Forerunner Ventures, Okta Ventures, and Abstract Ventures.

Our vision : every business system should be accessible to AI agents. If you\u2019re excited about building the infrastructure that will power the next generation of AI applications, join our team of 12 in San Francisco.
