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.
