Founding GTM Operator
Please email kaia@tanagram.ai to apply
About Tanagram:
Tanagram’s mission is to accelerate agentic coding.
We extract engineering learnings buried in codebases, code reviews, incident post-mortems, and Slack chats, turn them into real-time guardrails for coding agents, and double-check them in PRs — helping teams ship faster and avoid disaster.
We’re building a small, diverse team of meticulous, high-agency people who care about making software development faster, safer, and more reliable.
