[Hiring] Senior Integrations Engineer @Clera

Role Description

This is a senior individual contributor role on a small integrations team building the backend services behind a cold-chain risk-management platform used in pharma and perishables logistics. You will own data-heavy distributed systems that contextualize IoT monitoring data, quantify shipment risk in real time, and power predictive workflows at scale. The work is high-leverage and directly impacts whether temperature-sensitive shipments arrive safely and on time.

What You'll Do

• Design and build backend services that drive a logistics orchestration and decision-intelligence platform.
• Own end-to-end partner data flows, from multi-vendor IoT data ingestion and normalization through warehousing, observability, and on-call support.
• Build and maintain event-driven architectures using messaging systems such as Kafka or RabbitMQ.
• Develop predictive systems for on-time, in-full (OTIF) performance and automate exception-handling workflows.
• Design and integrate external partner APIs, webhooks, queues, carrier feeds, sensor streams, and vendor connections.
• Deploy and operate containerized services on cloud infrastructure, maintaining reliability standards appropriate for mission-critical logistics use cases.
• Collaborate closely with leadership and cross-functional teammates at a growth-stage startup where your work ships fast and has real visibility.

Qualifications

• 5 or more years of backend engineering experience building scalable distributed systems.
• Hands-on proficiency in Python and TypeScript/Node.js; strong Java experience is a plus.
• Demonstrated experience owning external partner-facing operational data integrations end to end, rather than purely internal, DevOps, ETL-only, or general full-stack work.
• Experience with IoT data ingestion, processing, and contextualization.
• Strong SQL skills and depth in relational data modeling; familiarity with NoSQL databases is a plus.
• Experience with API design and development using REST and/or gRPC.
• Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration.
• Experience deploying and operating services on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Solid software engineering practices: testing, CI/CD, monitoring, and observability.
• Ability to operate independently as a senior IC on a lean team.
• Domain knowledge in logistics, cold chain, supply chain, or IoT is a strong plus.
• Prior experience at a growth-stage or Series A company is a plus.
• Familiarity with data security, privacy, or regulatory considerations relevant to pharma or cold-chain domains is a plus.

Benefits

• Base salary: $130,000 to $160,000 USD annually, plus equity and a cash bonus.
• Visa sponsorship is available.
