## Job description

As a Product Engineer at Emanate, you'll build the features our customers use to design, test, and run their business-critical revenue workflows. Our goal is to make AI-powered revenue generation accessible to companies that are building the backbone of the physical economy — from steel distributors to service centers. You'll work across our end-to-end AI revenue engine, from intelligent CRM integrations to autonomous outreach workflows, building delightful experiences that make complex AI capabilities feel simple.

## About Emanate

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Emanate provides an autonomous AI revenue engine for industrial materials companies, handling inbound capture, account expansion, pipeline creation, and pricing decisions.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Stealth/Seed Stage)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, CA, USA
- **Founded**: 2026
- **Founders**: Kiara Nirghin

## Core Business
- Primary industry/industries: Industrial supply chain, AI-powered revenue operations, industrial materials
- Target customers: Industrial materials companies (steel, piping, construction materials, etc.) — B2B, mid-market to enterprise
- Mission or purpose statement: “To help the most important industrial materials companies in America experience exponential growth” by bringing AI advantages to the “physical economy” that has been left behind by digital transformation.

## Products & Services
- **Emanate Revenue Engine**: An autonomous AI platform that continuously executes revenue operations across four engines — Convert (inbound capture and quoting), Cultivate (account expansion and cross-sell), Proactive Actions (pipeline creation and prospect research), and Pricing Intelligence (deal-history-informed pricing). The system handles phone calls, email RFQs, web forms, win/loss analysis, margin trends, competitive positioning, and customer behavior — all without requiring headcount additions.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding undisclosed; backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Peter Thiel. The company emerged from stealth in February 2026.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Peter Thiel, Alexis Ohanian (as reported by Fortune)
- **Growth Signals**: Emerged from stealth in February 2026 with high-profile backing; claims measured impact of 60-80% reduction in RFQ response time, 3x increase in customer lifetime value, and 40% more qualified opportunities for clients; founder Kiara Nirghin is a Gen Z standout generating significant media attention.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Deep domain specificity**: Built exclusively for industrial materials companies, not a generic CRM or AI tool — understands the unique workflows of RFQs, spec sheets, inventory checks, and tribal knowledge
- **Four-engine architecture**: Combines inbound, expansion, prospecting, and pricing into one autonomous system rather than requiring multiple point solutions
- **Founder-market fit**: Kiara Nirghin’s background and vision have attracted top-tier investors and media coverage, signaling strong execution capability
- **Zero-downtime AI operations**: Designed to run revenue operations 24/7 without human intervention, compounding output across every workflow and deal

## Strategic Focus
- Scaling the autonomous revenue engine across more industrial materials verticals
- Building out the go-to-market team and engineering organization to support growing customer demand
- Continuing to differentiate from generic AI sales tools by deepening industrial domain expertise
- Expanding from inbound capture and quoting into full lifecycle revenue automation

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: The company’s manifesto emphasizes building “real systems engineered for complexity, built for load, designed to hold” — appealing to engineers who value robust infrastructure and tangible impact on the physical economy
- **Remote/Hybrid**: Based in San Francisco, CA; specific remote/hybrid policy not detailed on careers page
- **Engineering culture**: Opportunity to work on AI systems that handle real-world industrial workflows (phone calls, RFQs, inventory checks) — a blend of AI/ML, workflow automation, and domain-specific logic
- **Growth trajectory**: Early-stage startup backed by a16z and Peter Thiel, meaning significant ownership, impact, and career growth potential for early employees
- **Mission-driven**: Focus on modernizing America’s industrial supply chain — a sector that has been underserved by technology — offers a sense of purpose beyond typical SaaS
