Tenera | San Francisco, CA | Onsite | Founding Engineer (Full-Time) Tenera ( https://trytenera.ai ) is building the product decision layer for agents and humans, backed by a top tier VC (announcing soon).

We work onsite in SF five days a week (open to relocation for the right person) and offer meaningful founding equity. This is an unconventional role. We want an "agent-native" engineer. If you are still writing every function by hand, this isn't for you. You will orchestrate multiple coding agents in parallel, managing worktrees, concurrency, and shared context, while owning the architecture decisions that matter most: big data pipelines, schema design, system trad
