More than 50,000 leading and fast-growing businesses run on our corporate cards, bill pay, financing and B2B payments, and in 2025 the Financial Times named Clara the region’s fastest-growing company. We’re passionate about helping every company we work with become more effective—and, through that, raising the region’s competitiveness. We’re ~400 people, backed by Notable Capital, Coatue, Kaszek, monashees, DST Global, ICONIQ, General Catalyst and Goldman Sachs, among others. ## What you’ll do We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer to own backend and frontend development in Clara’s Collections squad. You’ll build features end-to-end — from data models and APIs to the interfaces our customers and internal teams use. This is a high-ownership role: you won’t wait for a ticket to tell you what to do; you’ll identify gaps, propose solutions, and ship. - Design and implement backend services in Java + Spring Boot, with a focus on financial flows (payments, collections, reconciliation) - Build and maintain frontend interfaces in React + TypeScript — you’re comfortable owning a feature across both layers - Model data and manage PostgreSQL and Redis for transactional and caching needs - Work with event-driven architectures (Kafka or similar) in a distributed microservices environment - Build and secure RESTful APIs for internal and external consumption - Use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor) as a default part of your workflow — we expect this, not just welcome it - Collaborate with your Pod Lead and PM to translate product needs into technical decisions, and push back when something doesn’t make sense ## Who you are We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement. Must haves - 3–5 years of backend development experience in Java, including Spring Boot - Hands-on experience with React and TypeScript — you’ve shipped real UI, not just tutorials - Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and distributed systems fundamentals - Experience with CI/CD, Docker, Git, and cloud platforms (AWS preferred) - AI-augmented development is how you work — you use AI tools daily to write, review, and debug code; you can speak concretely about how it’s changed your output - You identify what’s missing before someone asks — proactive, not reactive - Working proficiency in English and Spanish Nice to haves - Experience with Kafka, RabbitMQ, or other message brokers - Background in financial services, payments, or fintech — domain ramp is real; prior exposure matters - Experience in Kubernetes and production observability - You’ve built something — side project, open source, internal tool — that you’re proud of and can walk us through Clara está comprometida con el trabajo híbrido, combinando la flexibilidad del trabajo remoto con los beneficios de colaboración, conexión y desarrollo profesional que ofrece trabajar juntos en la oficina. El equipo no cuenta con días fijos de asistencia presencial, pero alentamos a nuestros claridians a asistir a la oficina según las necesidades del negocio o equipo Where we work This is a remote-first role: you'll work from home day to day. You'll ramp up in person with the team, and come together in person for team moments, events and customer visits through the year. ## Why Clara - A high talent-density team driven to make an impact in Latin America — low ego, high ownership. - Competitive salary and stock options (ESOP) from day one. - An annual learning budget and accelerated development paths. - English is our working language, with Spanish and Portuguese every day. ## How we work - Clarity — Open and direct communication: we say what we mean and give context where it matters. - Simplicity — If it can be simpler, it should be. - Ownership — We own everything we do, end to end. When something needs to happen, we don't wait. - Pride — We hold ourselves to a high standard, and it shows in what we deliver. - ABC (Always Be Changing) — We adapt fast, embrace change, and keep learning. - Inclusivity — Diverse ideas, stories and perspectives build a better Clara. If you meet the must-haves, apply — the nice-to-haves are a bonus, not a requirement. ## About Clara ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Clara is the leading corporate payments and spend management platform in Latin America, providing companies with corporate cards, bill payments, cross-border transfers, and AI-powered expense management. - **Entity Type**: Private (Debt-II stage; total funding of $770M) - **Headquarters**: São Paulo, Brazil (Rua Doutor Renato Paes de Barros, 33, Itaim Bibi) - **Founded**: 2020 - **Founders**: Not publicly available ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Fintech / Corporate Payments & Spend Management - **Target customers**: B2B; mid-market to enterprise companies across Latin America (30,000+ companies in Mexico, Brazil, and Colombia) - **Mission or purpose**: To build world-class financial infrastructure for Latin America, enabling businesses to scale without borders. ## Products & Services - **Corporate Credit Cards**: Global and local cards with customizable limits, controls, and real-time oversight for team spending. - **Bill Pay & Cross-Border Payments**: Automated vendor payments and cross-border transfers. - **Expense Management Platform**: AI-powered expense reporting, approvals, compliance, and receipt matching (Smart Match). - **TravelPay**: Virtual cards and tracking for all travel-related payments, preventing unauthorized charges. - **Reimbursements**: Fast, automated reimbursement flows for out-of-pocket spend. - **Clara Intelligence™**: Real-time analytics and AI-driven insights that centralize and analyze all company spend. - **Integrations**: Direct integrations with leading ERPs (Oracle NetSuite, SAP Concur, Zoho Expense, ARGO Solutions). ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company) - **Key Metric**: Total funding of $770M (including debt); most recent round was Debt-II raised 5 months ago (as of mid-2026) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: monashees, Kaszek, Canary, Notable Capital, Coatue, DST Global Partners, ICONIQ Growth, General Catalyst, Citi Ventures, SV Angel, Citius, Endeavor Catalyst, Goldman Sachs - **Growth Signals**: Named LatAm’s fastest-growing company by the Financial Times in both 2025 and 2026; serves 30,000+ companies across Mexico, Colombia, and Brazil; raised $80M in sales growth funding (per Bloomberg); expanding Brazil operations "quickly" (per Reuters) ## Competitive Advantages - **Regional focus**: Purpose-built for Latin America, solving local pain points (cross-border payments, local card issuance, tax optimization) that global competitors often miss. - **AI-powered platform**: Clara Intelligence™ provides real-time spend analytics and automated receipt matching, saving customers an average of 4.6M hours of work and +30% in tax deductions. - **Scale & trust**: Trusted by 30,000+ industry leaders; named LatAm’s fastest-growing company by the Financial Times (2025, 2026). - **Enterprise-grade security**: ISO 27001 and PCI DSS 4.0 certified. ## Strategic Focus - **Geographic expansion**: Deepening presence in Brazil (growing "quickly" per Reuters) and scaling across Mexico and Colombia. - **Product breadth**: Continuing to build an all-in-one financial OS for LatAm businesses, including bill pay, cross-border payments, and AI-powered spend intelligence. - **Capital markets**: Recently raised $80M for sales growth (per Bloomberg) and additional debt financing to fuel expansion. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Described as a place where people are "smart, own their work, and care deeply about the mission, and about each other."
