Software Engineer, Product

Join us at Cleric

We’re building a future where engineers are focused on designing and building products, freeing them from operational toil. We’re starting with an AI-powered SRE agent that remediates issues in production environments autonomously. It uses an LLM-based reasoning engine to react to, interpret, and implement solutions to production issues, even those it's encountering for the first time.

Now is a divine time to join. We're a small group of veterans in AI, software, and infrastructure, backed by a leading AI venture capital firm and Silicon Valley angels. Our product is in production at high-scale technology companies in fintech, ride-hailing, and autonomous vehicles.

About the role

We're hiring a Software Engineer to build Cleric's core product experience. You'll work across the entire stack to build, improve, and scale Cleric. You'll shape the experience for our early customers, help maintain high engineering standards, and help to lay the technical foundation for our company.

About you

You're an engineer who loves building products that solve real problems. You have a track record of shipping features quickly and can work across the full stack effectively. You're methodical in your approach to software development, with strong opinions on user experience, development, and testing. You understand that great products come from iterating quickly based on user feedback.

You have:

• Obsession with product quality and user experience

• Track record of owning features end-to-end, from conception to production

• 5+ years of experience as a software engineer

• Strong full-stack capabilities with Python and modern frontend technologies

• Experience with frontend technologies like React, HTML, and CSS

• A deep belief in automation and shipping quickly, whether agent-based or through continuous delivery, drives our primary focus.

Nice to have:

• Experience with AI/ML products or platforms

• Background in observability, monitoring, or production systems

• Previous startup experience

What you’ll do

• Own and ship core product features that help engineers understand their systems

• Build intuitive interfaces for complex system data and agent interactions

• Create backend services that process and act on production data at scale

• Work directly with customers to understand their needs and rapidly iterate

• Collaborate with our AI team to expand Cleric's capabilities

• Help shape our product direction and technical architecture

How we work

• Small teams, big impact: We believe that small teams can deliver great products.

• Culture matters: We value radical candor in a positive and inclusive work environment.

• In-person collaboration: We believe in working closely to deliver the best results.

• AI-first approach: We don't simply build AI products; we augment ourselves with it.
