Anything is the AI product engineer for the next wave of entrepreneurs.

It’s an AI agent that turns English into apps

Everything you need make money on the internet built in - mobile, web, design, AI, backend, infra, payments.

Launched Aug 7th. Hit $2M rev in 2 weeks. Just raised $11M and hiring fast.

Role

Infra engineers design and build the platform that supports everything Anything’s does - from swarms of AI agents generating apps to keeping those apps up as they scale from 1 user to 100k+.

Sample projects include:

  • Scaling Anything’s backbone to support X00k+ simultaneous agents, builders, and deployed apps
  • Optimizing retrieval and inference to make code gen feel instant even under massive concurrent load
  • Architecting a 1 click system to deploy in an instant - and can autoscale any app from zero to millions of users
  • Designing fault-tolerant infra with per-app isolation across data, secrets, and runtime
  • Building AI native real-time observability so Anything agents can debug, monitor, and repair production apps on its own

Ideal candidates

  • Staff level backend or infra engineer (typically 6+ years of experience, Typescript/Go/Rust/Python fluency preferred) If you’d had to build & re-build something through multiple orders of magnitude of scale, years is irrelevant.
  • Strong experience with databases, caches, proxies, secrets, task queues, observability, microVMs, containers, and orchestration systems
  • Production experience with AWS (or GCP, Azure) and Terraform (or CDK/CDKTF/Pulumi)
  • At least one of:
    • Major contributions at a company as it scaled from startup to established (esp consumer, AI, multi tenant SaaS, or dev platforms + tools)
    • Notable contributions to relevant open source
    • Dealt with meaningful production traffic and load
  • Blend excellent engineering with strong product sense. Know architecture makes customer experiences.
  • Know when to build your own system vs. use a managed service (and the tradeoffs between services)
  • Confident designing systems from scratch vs. just maintaining them
  • Equally fluent in application code & infrastructure as code, and know when to use either.
  • You have some war stories

Extra signal

  • Prior experience as a founder or founding eng
  • Hands on work with secrets management or security
  • Strong experience with AI workloads and infra

In all roles

We look for:

Intense. Ship fast. Cycles are hours, not weeks. Hard to outwork.

Ownership. Grab the #1 priority and relentless to deliver.

Fearlessness. Risk on. Do the unknown / uncomfortable. Say “good” to bad news.
