About Clera: Clera is a fast-growing AI start-up reimagining how top talent finds their dream jobs. We’re already working with leading, VC-backed startups such as Mintlify, Luminai, and Windsurf - many in AI, all VC-backed. We believe recruitment needs to be talent-first to make it easy to get in touch with those companies, be coached in the journey and actually get hired. We just raised our big pre-seed and are not growing as quickly as possible. Thousands of talents engage with Clera every week. We’ve connected many of them with companies where they’ve landed exciting new roles. With the traditional $600B headhunting industry ripe for AI-driven disruption, we are aiming to build a massive company, providing better outcomes for talents and companies.

The Role: - Automating the work of headhunters is a massive tech challenge - and opportunity. We are looking for an exceptional founding engineer. - You will work directly with our CTO & Co-Founder Daniel and ship your own features to production every day. You will have a strong impact on building our fully agentic system to automate the headhunting process end-to-end. Your Experience: - Very strong software engineering background: Experience in TypeScript and React - Strong practical experience working with AI: We work 24/7 in Cursor - ideally you have experience coding with AI. Bonus if you have an experience working with LLM APIs - Startup mindset - high agency, resourceful, and obsessed with creating value Who You Are: - Take full ownership of projects, from concept to deployment and do whatever it takes to get the job done. - Write code fast and scrap it even faster, but kno
