How much do clojure jobs pay per year?

As of Jul 11, 2026, the average yearly pay for clojure in the United States is $150,757.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $129,500.00 and $167,500.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is a Clojure job?

A Clojure job typically involves developing software applications using the Clojure programming language, a functional and Lisp-based language that runs on the JVM. Clojure developers work on tasks such as building web applications, backend services, data processing systems, and functional programming solutions. These jobs often require a strong understanding of functional programming principles, concurrency, and immutability. Many Clojure roles are in industries like finance, e-commerce, and SaaS, where reliability and scalability are important.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Clojure position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Clojure developer, you need a solid understanding of functional programming principles, experience with the Clojure language, and proficiency in software development best practices. Familiarity with development tools such as Leiningen, Git, and commonly used libraries or frameworks is important, and knowledge of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) ecosystem is often required. Strong problem-solving abilities, effective communication, and a collaborative mindset help Clojure developers succeed in team-based, agile environments. These skills enable effective delivery of robust, maintainable solutions in complex and fast-paced software projects.

What are some common challenges faced by Clojure developers, and how can new hires prepare for them?

Clojure developers often work on complex systems where understanding and untangling legacy code or deeply functional codebases can be challenging, especially for those new to Lisp-like syntax or functional paradigms. New hires can prepare by practicing with open-source Clojure projects, learning idiomatic Clojure code styles, and becoming comfortable with REPL-driven development. Regular collaboration with more experienced team members and participating in code reviews also accelerates learning and acclimation to real-world workflows. Embracing a growth mindset and proactively seeking feedback will help new developers overcome hurdles and grow quickly in their roles.

About Allovue

Allovue believes every student deserves access to the resources they need to be successful in school.

Our education resource planning software empowers K–12 administrators at every level to allocate resources to best support the needs of their students. We seek people who are creative, funny, humble, flexible, motivated, collaborative, and problem-solvers.

We love and respect our team members. We also love silly GIFs.

Allovue’s Current StackCode
  • Ruby / Rails
  • JavaScript/Ember
  • R
Data
  • PostgreSQL
  • Elasticsearch
Infrastructure
  • Docker
  • AWS
  • Ansible
Your Role

Allovue is looking for engineers that display a love of their craft and are continuing to strive to learn more about programming and building software in general. We don’t stop at helping to facilitate K–12 education; we strongly believe to stop learning is to grow stagnant.

We are looking for candidates that are varied in experiences and are generally well-versed in one or more specific areas of practice. Those areas may include:

  • front-end development
  • back-end development
  • data mining
  • operations

We have services written in R and Ruby: including a Rails API. We use Postgres and Elasticsearch as our persistence layers and Ember.js as the framework we currently use for our client-side application. Some languages we have been evaluating for upcoming services include Clojure, Elixir, and Node.js. We do not expect a candidate to have all of those skills currently, but he/she should be proficient in building web applications at scale.

Qualifications
  • 5+ years of professional software development
  • Comprehensive knowledge of one or more of these languages:
    • JavaScript
    • Ruby
    • Clojure
  • Experience with MVC frameworks and paradigms
  • Excellent designer of APIs for other developers (and future self!)
  • Solid understanding of both unstructured and relational databases
  • Collaborative
  • Low ego and high pride in your work
Bonus Points
  • Experience with Hadoop, Storm, or Spark
  • Past work with Docker and/or Ansible
  • Background in statistics
  • Background in UX/HCI/Design
  • ERP systems experience
  • Well-versed in completing ETL transactions
Allovue ROI

We appreciate that our team members invest their brilliance, creativity, and general amazingness into growing Allovue and serving our customers - so what will you receive in return?

  • Competitive salary, commensurate with experience
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Employee-friendly option plans
  • Up to 4% 401K match
  • Administration of a 529 plan (education savings account)
  • A team of smart, passionate, funny, kind people
  • Flexible hours and locations
  • Time to recharge with 3 weeks vacation and unlimited personal days
