Founding Full-Stack Engineer

Clera
San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 3/3/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/26/2025

Ready to unleash your genius on a top-secret project that’s set to revolutionize an entire industry? Craving the adrenaline rush that comes from working at a high-stakes, high-reward startup? We’re on a mission you can’t read about… yet. As our Founding Full Stack Engineer, you’ll join a small, elite team that’s poised to shatter conventional thinking, transform the market, and make headlines—once we’re ready to come out of hiding. If you thrive on solving impossible problems and building jaw-dropping products from scratch, this is your chance to become a literal force in forging the next tech sensation.

Tasks

Architect & Build : Own the product from concept to deployment, architecting both front-end experiences and back-end infrastructure that will blow minds.

  • Innovate & Iterate : Dive deep into cutting-edge frameworks and technologies. Try, fail, and try again until you create something extraordinary.
  • Collaborate & Influence : Shape the future of our core platform by working hand-in-hand with the founding team. Your ideas are not just welcomed—they’re vital.
  • Optimize & Scale : Ensure seamless performance. Build a robust, scalable codebase that can handle millions of users (trust us, it’s coming).
  • Lead & Mentor : As one of our earliest team members, you’ll set engineering standards, mentor junior devs as we grow, and be the technical rockstar we can all depend on.

Requirements

  • Full-Stack Prowess : Mastery over a modern front-end framework (React, Vue, or Angular) and a solid back-end language (Node, Python, Go, or Ruby). You can juggle them in your sleep.
  • Startup Chops : Demonstrated experience shipping products at breakneck speed in a previous startup or similarly fast-paced environment.
  • Deep DevOps Know-How : CI / CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes—these should be part of your daily toolkit.
  • Adaptability & Resilience : You thrive under pressure, pivot on a dime, and embrace the chaos that’s part of building something truly disruptive.
  • Visionary Mindset : You’re not just an engineer; you’re a product thinker who’s always hunting for the next big innovation.
  • Benefits

  • Ownership & Impact : An attractive equity package that ensures your success is directly tied to the company’s triumph.
  • Tech Playground : We invest in cutting-edge tools and hardware so you can build without limits.
  • Flexibility & Freedom : Work your way—remote, hybrid, or on-site (when we have one). We trust you to deliver.
  • Personal Growth & Mentorship : You’ll partner with industry veterans who will fast-track your professional and personal growth.
  • Unmatched Excitement : A front-row seat to a high-velocity startup where your code becomes the DNA of a product that could define an entire market.
  • Cant wait to hear back from you.
