Member of Technical Staff at Clera in San Francisco
Job Description
About the Role
This is a senior engineering role focused on building the infrastructure layer for autonomous, AI-native applications. You will work on agentic infrastructure and agent-building systems that power the next generation of AI workers, playing a foundational part in shaping the platform from the ground up as one of the first engineers on the team.
What You'll Do
Design and implement scalable infrastructure for agent orchestration and execution.
Build frameworks and tools that enable teams to develop, test, and deploy autonomous agents.
Collaborate with product and research teams to translate requirements into robust technical solutions.
Mentor junior engineers and establish best practices across the codebase.
Contribute to technical strategy and long-term platform roadmap decisions.
What We're Looking For
8 or more years of professional software engineering experience.
Hands-on experience building or working with agentic infrastructure, agent frameworks, or related distributed systems.
Generalist technical background across multiple domains rather than a narrow deep-tech specialty.
Proven ability to design and own production systems with strong architecture and infrastructure decision-making.
Experience building developer-facing tools, APIs, platforms, or comparable infrastructure abstractions.
Comfort working across the full stack, from low-level infrastructure to high-level abstractions.
Proficiency in modern programming languages and cloud infrastructure.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary range: $150,000 to $250,000 USD annually. Equity is part of the compensation package given the early-stage nature of the role.
Location
Based in San Francisco, CA, USA.
