Senior Software Engineer, Platform

$200k - $350k

Clera

About the Role

Join the platform team at a fast-growing, venture-backed AI data analytics startup building an agentic data lakehouse that delivers trustworthy answers from messy enterprise data. As a Senior Software Engineer, Platform , you'll help shape the data foundation that powers AI-driven analytics at scale - without heavy schema migrations or data movement. This is a high-impact, zero-to-one opportunity on a small, senior team tackling genuinely hard distributed systems and data engineering challenges.

This role is on-site in New York City . Visa sponsorship is available.
What You'll Do
  • Agentic Semantic Layer: Build the system that gives AI agents the context to query enterprise data correctly and the guardrails to prove results - the layer that makes AI-generated queries trustworthy enough to stake decisions on.
  • Distributed Agent Orchestration: Design and implement orchestration systems for agents that interact with the outside world - API integrations, rate limiting, OAuth passthrough, model routing, scheduling, and token optimization.
  • Agentic Data Engineering: Architect AI-centric ETL pipelines for data lakehouses that make large-scale analytics accessible to organizations with little or no dedicated data engineering resources.
  • Contribute across infrastructure, backend services, and frontend as needed in a lean, cross-functional team.
What We're Looking For

Must-haves:
  • 4+ years of practical experience as a backend or platform engineer building scalable distributed systems.
  • Strong proficiency in Golang .
  • Hands-on experience with gRPC / ConnectRPC, Trino, Kubernetes, DuckDB, and PostgreSQL in a distributed data platform environment.
  • Experience at early-stage startups or building products from zero to one (VC-backed environment a strong plus).
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or comparable practical experience.
  • Solid CS fundamentals and a track record of owning complex systems end-to-end.
Nice-to-haves:
  • Experience with data visualization tools, data modeling, and big data technologies.
  • Familiarity with data warehouse integrations (e.g., BigQuery, Redshift, Snowflake).
  • Comfort stretching into infrastructure or frontend work when the team needs it.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Salary: $200,000 - $350,000 USD annually, depending on experience.
  • Equity participation.
  • Competitive benefits package.
Location

This is a full-time, on-site role based in New York City, NY . Candidates must be willing and able to work on-site. Visa sponsorship is available.
