Ancora is building an AI-native accounting software that replaces traditional accounting management systems. We're not improving the status quo - we're replacing it entirely: from software that waits for human input to an autonomous agent that performs accounting under professional supervision.Dato l'elevato interesse per questa posizione, la preghiamo di candidarsi tempestivamente se il suo profilo è in linea con il ruolo.We're an Italian startup based in Milan. Our model combines a technology platform that automates the operational work these firms do every day: bookkeeping, tax filings, document management, compliance deadlines with a roll-up strategy — acquiring and consolidating accounting firms (studi commercialisti) across Italy.The vision is clear: free accounting professionals from repetitive tasks so they can focus on what actually requires human judgment — strategic consulting, client relationships, and growing their practice. We're building the infrastructure that makes this possible at scale.Where we are today. We're venture-backed by some of Italy's best investors, with our first studio acquisitions underway. The product is greenfield — zero legacy code, modern stack, built from scratch. Our engineering team is designing the entire architecture now. The decisions we make today will shape the system for years.What makes Ancora different. We own the problem end-to-end: we build the technology, we acquire the firms, we operate the service. This means we control the feedback loop between what accountants need and what we build. We're not selling software to reluctant buyers — we're building it for firms we operate. The technology has to work because our business depends on it. Italian accounting is deeply regulated, complex, and largely untouched by modern software. The domain complexity is real, and that's what makes it interesting.About the RoleAs our first Backend Engineer, you'll architect and build the service layer that sits between our AI agents ...
