About Clerk

What you will do

[We’re a small but growing team, with big ambitions. This means you’ll have responsibility far beyond closing out pre-sliced tickets. We’re looking for people that are comfortable working across the stack to solve product problems for real users. While we’re hiring for a role that is focused on our Dashboard product, you’ll come to find that our Dashboard is a crucial way for Clerk to dogfood our own product; and therefore is also critical for generating product feedback and driving the direction of Clerk as a business.

We will expect you to:

• Own the frontend architecture - you’ll work hand-in-glove with multiple teams doing feature development that touch the Dashboard. You’ll need to own the architecture that they are building on
• Collaborate with teammates to release new features - we have a world-class UI Engineering team that is fantastic at owning the “front of the frontend” **but often they need support from a more traditional frontend engineer to ensure the UIs are built on a solid foundation. Thats where you come in
• Continually progress our tooling - as a business that builds dev tools, its crucial we’re exploring and understanding emerging technologies and understanding their trade-offs

• Be Customer 0 - Clerk is built on top of Clerk. That means our Dashboard is one of our most advanced customers. The Dashboard is always Customer 0 by integrating upcoming functionality internally first

• 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.
