About Anvil
Many industries evolved to operate on paperwork, in a pre-internet world when it was the best medium for standardizing information and processes. Now, paperwork’s limitations (and the industries bound by it) make it a challenge to adapt to an AI-enabled, data-first future. Anvil uses AI to abstract away the underlying paperwork into a data-first API providing our customers with the infrastructure to finally transition the world off of PDFs and onto the internet.
Our mission at Anvil is to facilitate the evolution of existing business processes from artifact first to data first. Our customers include growth stage technology companies working to digitize insurance, finance, healthcare, HR, and government. Anvil’s suite of developer-centric products cover the entire paperwork process, from data-collection to signature, paving the way for every industry to transition to a data-first future.
Anvil is a Series A company with solid growth, and excellent business efficiency metrics. We are a team that punches above our weight, works collaboratively and cross-functionally, and is very open internally. We hope to find a team member that is excited to roll up their sleeves, figure out challenges and interested in learning about running a startup.
About the Role
Anvil’s goal is to become the infrastructure layer for business processes that are currently dominated by paperwork and PDFs. We are working to abstract paperwork and PDFs from humans _and_ developers; structured data should be the star, PDFs only an artifact.
We’re looking for a Junior Software Engineer who is excited to abstract away the PDF. This person would be full-stack and have responsibilities for projects across product areas.
You are expected to be able to think critically, open to learning about how to become an expert engineer and eager to learn ( but not rely
) on new tools like AI copilots. You will be expected to use new AI tools while also being able to articulate, defend, debate coding architectures without the support of AI.
