Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The role is an open application for individuals to define their own contribution to the company's growth. The successful candidate will take total ownership of outcomes and help build AI agents for procurement and supply chain management.
Candidates must have a clear perspective on how they can add value to Compri and be able to explain their strengths clearly. They should possess a proactive mindset, a willingness to take risks, and a commitment to team collaboration.
Sometimes the right person doesn't fit neatly into an job search. Sometimes the timing is not right, they show up before we even know we need them.
This post is for that person.
Read this until the end and if something about Compri resonates with you, if you've a clear perspective on where you could contribute, we want to hear from you. You don't need a perfectly matching job description. You need to know what you're good at, why it matters here, and how to explain it clearly.
We read every application. We respond to the ones that are specific.
Manufacturers still run procurement and supply chains on tooling from the 1990s: ERPs, Excel, and email. The result is around 80% of operational time lost to manual coordination, and up to 10% of addressable savings left on the table every year. Hiring more buyers or rolling out another platform isn't the fix. Both are slow, expensive, and rarely adopted on the shop floor.
Compri deploys dozens of specialized AI Agents organized into cooperative teams that cover the full procurement loop: from spend analysis, to capturing purchase requests, launching tenders, onboarding suppliers, and managing orders end-to-end. The agents plug into any ERP in days, connect to internal and external data sources, and operate inside the workflows customer teams already use. No new software to learn. No extra headcount to hire. Just time and savings, unlocked.
We already work with 30+ enterprise manufacturers across the US, South America, and Europe. We're 30+ people with experience in unicorns (Satispay, Scalapay, Lansweeper, Soldo), scaleups, and big corporates (Microsoft, Apple, BCG, Bain, Ferrari, and more), Milan-based, backed by Picus Capital, Shapers, Italian Founders Fund, and amazing strategic angels.
We won't pretend we have all the answers. We're a startup that ships fast, breaks things intentionally, and learns hard. But we do have a point of view.
We believe in the integration of life and work: one sphere should energize the other. We believe facts speak louder than titles. And we believe the best teammates are the ones who lean in, not out.
A few things from our manifesto that actually guide how we work every day:
Total ownership. If it's broken, you fix it. If it's nobody's job, you pick it up. You don't just execute tasks and follow instructions. You constantly ask yourself how you can add value to what we're building, how you can push it one step further, and how you can make it better to the point where we don't have to fight that same battle again. You own the outcome, not just the activity.
We take risks and go bold. Magic happens when you push yourself out of your comfort zone and try something you didn't know for sure you could do. We take the leap even without all the details.
We have each other's back. If something goes wrong, we drop everything to solve it together. Blame and recrimination are for other companies. "Not my problem" does not exist here. Mistakes are natural and they belong to the team, not to the individual. We share them, we learn from them, and we move on.
Lead by example. Titles don't define you. Leadership comes from what you do, not from what your business card says. To be recognized as a leader here, you prove it every day.
Don't send a generic cover letter. Tell us:
What you do and what you're genuinely excellent at
Why Compri specifically, not "an AI startup"
What's the first thing you'd want to take ownership of if you were working with us
The AI Workforce for Supply Chains
Procurement teams don't need more software. They actually need digital colleagues that do the low-value work. The boring, repetitive tasks that currently chain your human colleagues. Compri is an AI workforce for manufacturing companies: specialized agents that handle sourcing, supplier management, order tracking, compliance, and more. 24/7, alongside your team. No portals. No configuration, no learning curve. No manual heavy lifting. Compri agents integrate natively with your ERP, emails, and documents, and operate like real colleagues. Reading, deciding, acting, autonomously or with your team's approval when it matters. The result: procurement teams that move faster, protect margins, and focus on the decisions that actually require human judgment.
