Job Description

• Own major product surfaces. You’ll be responsible for the Billing SDK and surrounding systems — from architecture to API design to developer ergonomics. • Collaborate deeply with customers and teammates. You’ll work closely with developers using Clerk, partnering to understand their needs and turn feedback into world-class solutions. • Execute with velocity and quality. You’ll ship iteratively, validate fast, and balance craft with pragmatism to keep the feedback loop tight. • Lead by example. You’ll establish and enforce high engineering standards, mentor other engineers, and help shape our technical culture. • Thrive in ambiguity. Clerk moves quickly. You’ll define problems, find leverage points, and chart a path forward without waiting for a perfect spec. • Go deep on Billing. You’ll help make Clerk the most developer-friendly way to handle billing — by building empathy for app developers and understanding the full landscape of billing and subscription systems.

Job Requirements

  • You’re a TypeScript/JavaScript expert who’s built libraries or SDKs other developers love to use.
  • You have deep experience with modern web frameworks and strong opinions about what makes a great Developer Experience.
  • You’ve built and scaled SaaS products, ideally including billing, subscription, or payments systems.
  • You’re known for clean, maintainable, and performant code, and for setting high standards others follow.
  • You understand how to design APIs and abstractions that balance power and simplicity.
  • You’re motivated by impact — you want to build something developers truly rely on.
  • You’re comfortable owning large, open-ended problems and bringing clarity through exploration and iteration.
  • You care deeply about craft, performance, and product quality — and you know that good engineering and good UX go hand in hand.
  • You love building for other engineers — and it shows in the details of your work.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary – We value your expertise and make sure you feel it.
  • Equity ownership – Everyone shares in Clerk’s success through our stock option plan.
  • Work gear – Set up your perfect home office with the equipment of your choice.
  • Flexible vacation – Take the time you need. We recommend 25 days per year, plus local holidays.
  • Global, inclusive team – Join a diverse, distributed team building for developers everywhere.
