Job Description

Frontend Engineer responsible for optimizing user management interfaces for Clerk's developers. Work in a dynamic remote environment enhancing product quality and user experience.

Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with customers and teammates - be part of a world-class product delivery team that cares deeply about customer needs and the value of constant iteration. We’re fully remote, which means you’ll need to practice good communication habits to keep things moving.
  • Care about frontend architecture - you’ll work hand-in-glove with multiple teams doing feature development. You’ll need to help us maintain the architecture that they are building on.
  • Execute - Clerk values engineers who execute. That means approaching work iteratively and reducing the time between feedback cycles.
  • Thrive in a dynamic environment - Clerk is not well suited for engineers who expect every task to be a series of predefined steps. We believe the best approach is to work through our customer’s problems in the trenches and not merely think through them from the sidelines.
  • Go deep - We want Clerk to be the easiest way for app builder’s to release and operate their businesses. To do this, we need to build the best DX on the market. This means developing deep empathy for app builder’s and knowing the full depth of our customer’s pain points.
  • Embrace a culture of craft by focusing on engineering quality. We want our product to be best-in-class, and so we need our team to write maintainable, performant, and well-structured code.

Requirements:

  • You’re a TS/JS expert and opinionated around what makes a high-quality Developer Experience.
  • You write clean, idiomatic code and know your way around the modern frontend stacks.
  • You’re comfortable establishing high quality patterns that other developers adhere to and you fight to maintain those high standards as the product grows in maturity.
  • You’re passionate about Web App performance (think Web Vitals but also human-centered performance topics like optimistic UI)
  • You understand what it takes to build a SaaS product
  • You set a high bar for code quality, system design, and performance — and you’re not afraid to fight for it.
  • You believe in solving real customer problems, even if it means making tradeoffs behind the scenes.
  • You love working on products you use yourself — because you know that’s how magic happens.

Benefits:

  • Competitive Salary – We want you to know that we value the skills and experience you bring to the table. We go out of our way to make sure that you feel fairly compensated.
  • Equity Ownership – At Clerk, we believe in shared success. That's why we offer a stock option plan so that everyone can benefit from the growth and prosperity of the company.
  • Work Gear - Set up your ideal home office with the gear of your choice. At Clerk, we want to ensure that you have everything you need to perform at your best.
  • Flexible Vacation Policy – We believe in work-life balance and trust you to take the time you need. Although we recommend 25 days per year, our vacation policy is unlimited. This is in addition to observing national holidays specific to your country of residence.
  • Diverse and Inclusive Team – Join our exceptional, diverse, and globally distributed team at Clerk. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best in building impactful products and tools for the modern web.
