Company mission
To solve user management once and for all.
Role
Who you are
- Have 2+ years of experience in software engineering
- Be passionate about mobile technologies
- Be able to write clean, secure and performant code with attention to detail
- Know the pain of building authentication and authorization features
- Be able to perform well in a fast-paced environment
- Thrive in a flat hierarchy
- Enjoy working remotely
What the job involves
- Building the most comprehensive, intuitive and customizable Authentication UIs. We'll need to implement it in iOS and Android, and make sure it works within all development frameworks -- native iOS/Android (Swift/Kotlin), React Native, Flutter, Expo
- Defining our mobile strategy. We need someone who knows the ins and outs of the mobile ecosystem, so that we don't get caught flat-footed
- Above all, we need our SDKs to be as simple and intuitive as possible. We will empower the next generation of developers to focus on what matters to them, and not have to worry about the ins and outs of user/device management
Our take
Authentication is only part of the story when it comes to user management. Developers using API tools also face the complex UI and management issues of additional features like user sign-up, sign-in, and session management, to name a few. Clerk was founded to make this simpler, reducing hours of work to minutes using pre-built React components.
Clerk stands out in a market dominated by the likes of Auth0 and OneSpan with its focus on React rather than API. This taps into a growing number of developers working with Jamstack rather than trying to wrestle customers away from market incumbents - a smart move which has seen its userbase swell by five times, growing to over a million developers.
This rapid growth has attracted investors, and Clerk closed a Series B round in 2024. This funding is being used to expand the company's services into authorisation - determining a user's permissions as opposed to simply identifying them. As account security and management will continue to be a major focus for developers going forward, Clerk is well positioned to grow into a major player in this space, especially as it continues to expand its product range.
