Employer job description
From Clera's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
About the Role
You'll build the software backbone powering autonomous manufacturing operations at a seed-stage AI supply chain startup. As a Senior or Staff Software Engineer on the Platform team, you'll design scalable backend services, data pipelines, and integrations that coordinate AI-powered agents and high-stakes transactions across complex supply chain workflows, directly enabling physical goods to move reliably through manufacturing systems.
What You'll Do
- Design and scale backend services using Next.js API routes, background jobs, and serverless functions to handle high-throughput order processing.
- Build and productionize LLM-based agents, AI/ML infrastructure, and RAG patterns for intelligent quote analysis and supplier recommendations.
- Own the data layer by designing PostgreSQL schemas, migrations, and complex queries for materials, quotes, orders, and supplier relationships.
- Architect event-driven systems with reliable pipelines for order state management, notification triggers, and cross-system synchronization.
