Frontend Engineer

Description

• 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. • 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. • Go deep - We want Clerk to be the easiest way for app builder’s to release and operate their businesses. • Embrace a culture of craft by focusing on engineering quality.

Requirements

• You're a Typescript/Javascript 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.

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.

We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best in building impactful products and tools for the modern web.
