What you'll do

We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to lead backend initiatives within the ClarOps team. ClarOps is the team that makes Clara run. We build and operate the internal systems and services that power the day-to-day of the business. A big part of the road ahead is building the integration platform that lets the rest of the Clara ecosystem plug into this backend, including the new wave of tools other teams are building on top of AI. The roadmap is one of the most interesting at the company: re-architecting how Clara runs around AI, with deep cross-functional reach and real leverage on how we scale.

This role goes beyond coding: you'll shape technical direction, raise the engineering bar across the team, and own the performance and scalability of the systems that directly support Clara's operational efficiency. You'll influence architecture, drive decisions, and partner cross-functionally on some of Clara's most impactful challenges.

We move fast and trust our engineers to own outcomes end-to-end. That means autonomy to make decisions, proactivity to surface problems before they become blockers, and the attitude to push initiatives across the finish line without waiting to be told what to do.

Your responsibilities will include:

Leading design and implementation for high-impact internal systems and services.

Building the integration platform and surfaces that let other teams across Clara, and AI agents, connect into the ClarOps backend.

Collaborating across the full product lifecycle, from ideation to deployment, utilizing CI/CD and Github best practices.

Elevating the team through code reviews, pairing, and sharing what you know with peers.

Maintaining and evolving microservices within a modern architecture.

Driving cross-team pro
