## Job description

About Clerk Chat:

Clerk Chat's mission is to make every business conversational. We are achieving this by building the leading messaging application, integrating AI where it matters, and crafting our own telecom infrastructure. It's big and bold and needs spirited adventurers to join our growing team.

We've built Clerk Chat organically into a profitable business over the last 2 years. We're a team that believes in achieving your highest potential but not at the expense of work-life balance. That's why we have flexible vacation time, healthy quarterly bonuses, and creative freedom at the forefront. We're Silicon Valley-based entrepreneurs who have sold companies, gone through the exclusive HF0 AI residency, having previously built teams at Lucasfilms, Samsung, Netflix, DocuSign, and Series B+ Startups.

What does a work environment look like at Clerk Chat?

Clerk Chat is an in-office team based just three blocks south of the Embarcadero BART station, making it easy to commute and stay connected. We love being in the office five days a week because it fosters real-time collaboration, builds stronger relationships, and helps us move faster.

This is an exciting time to join Clerk Chat. We’re small enough that every individual has a big impact, but we’re growing fast enough that there’s tremendous room for career advancement.

Who you are: You’re an ambitious and entrepreneurial sales professional who thrives in a high-velocity environment.

- Identify and engage with SME and Mid-Market clients to drive sales and foster long-term relationships.
- Represent the company with passion, sharing its vision and delivering value-driven solutions to prospects.
- Handle a high-velocity sales process, managing multiple deals simultaneously while maintaining a results-oriented mindset.
- Proactively identify opportunities to improve the sales process and contribute to the company’s growth.
- Participate in key industry events to generate business opportunities and expand your network.

What you will need:

- 3-5 years of quota-carrying sales experience, ideally in a start-up saas environment, with a proven ability to manage the entire sales cycle from demos to close.
- Strong self-management and entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to thrive in a high-velocity, fast-paced environment.
- A passion for customer-centric solutions and building meaningful relationships.
- Familiarity with customer procurement cycles, including security reviews, legal redlining, and executive pricing negotiations.

Nice to have:

- Experience with telecom, communication, or messaging platforms.
- Exposure to early-stage startups or high-growth companies, with a passion for driving results in these environments.

Clerk Chat provides several benefits to help you bring your best self to work:

- Competitive compensation and equity packages
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Flexible vacation time (Unlimited PTO)
- 401k with 4% match

Salary Range:

The pay range for this role is: $80,000 base and $160,000 OTE, approximately

Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and industry and are one part of our total compensation package that also includes equity, benefits and other perks.

## Market Standing

- **Key Metric**: $10 million in annual revenue (as of early 2026); $7 million in total seed funding
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Race Capital (lead investor), HF0, Mento VC, Altair VC. Key partners include Google, Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T for the first simultaneous multicarrier RCS solution in North America.
- **Growth Signals**: Over 2,000 clients across financial services, healthcare, and insurance; expanded to Canada with a new Montréal engineering hub (May 2026); rebranded from Clerk Chat to Clerk AI in Spring 2026 to reflect AI agent focus; processes millions of AI messages and voice calls daily.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Purpose-built enterprise compliance**: TCPA ShieldLayer, HIPAA with BAA, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR compliance built directly into every interaction, reducing legal risk for clients.

- **Deepening enterprise capabilities**: Continued investment in InfiniteScale auto-scaling, compliance automation (TCPA/HIPAA), and audit trail features to win larger enterprise clients.
- **AI agent sophistication**: Shifting from a general messaging platform to purpose-built AI agents for performance marketing, with a focus on real-time sentiment detection, lead qualification, and in-conversation purchasing.
- **Partner ecosystem growth**: Deepening relationships with telecom carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T) and expanding into new verticals like auto, home, health, and life insurance.

## Why Work Here
- **Growth trajectory**: The company exploded from founding in 2023 to $10M ARR and a $7M seed round by 2024-2026, indicating strong product-market fit and rapid scaling.

- **New Montréal hub**: The newly launched Montréal engineering hub (approx. 15 hires) offers a chance to be an early team member in an international expansion, with a focus on prompt engineering and conversational AI. The company is actively hiring for that location.
- **Remote/Hybrid**: Not specifically stated, but headquarters are in San Francisco. The new Montréal hub suggests a growing distributed team.
- **Leadership**: CEO Alexander Haque (McGill alum, ex-Netflix, ex-Samsung Innovation) has a track record of scaling AI products and deep domain expertise in telecom and customer service.
