About Clerkie

Clerkie is a fintech startup on a mission to democratize financial wellness using the power of artificial intelligence. Launched in 2018, Clerkie began with an app, aiming to help the nearly 123 million underserved Americans in need of financial guidance. Since its inception, the company has expanded its services and now pairs consumer guidance with cutting-edge B2B software. By pairing the two through the Clerkie network, these tools have become the go-to resource for creditors looking to manage loan losses while simultaneously helping millions of borrowers get out of debt.

Clerkie is a remote-first company, with over 40 employees spanning 4 time zones across the United States. To date, the company has raised $41 million, including a $33 million Series A round in early 2023. Investors include leading financial and venture institutions, including Citi Ventures, Left Lane Capital, Wellington Ventures, Flourish Ventures, and Vestigo Ventures.

About the internship

As the newest addition to Team Clerkie, this Software Engineer Intern will work across our Engineering function to contribute to Clerkie Fiber, our B2B CRM, designed to transform the debt industry.

This full-time 12 month paid internship is designed for soon-to-be or recent graduates who are excited to kickstart their career in software engineering. You'll work across the full stack, collaborating with engineers on frontend, backend, and infrastructure projects. Whether you're optimizing APIs, refining user interfaces, or contributing to our architecture, your work will have a direct impact.

This isn't just another internship - it's an investment in your growth. The ideal Clerkie team member is curious, collaborative, and eager to grow in a fast-paced environment. Clerkie's culture values a customer-first mindset and a bias for action - we're looking for someone who's excited to dive in and learn.

While this opportunity is remote-first, Clerkie offers the option to visit or work from our SF HQ at any time.

Here's what you will do
  • Develop and maintain Clerkie Fiber, our flagship B2B CRM, collaborating closely with backend, frontend, product, and design teams
  • Work across the full tech stack, from frontend interfaces (Next.js, Tailwind CSS) to backend services (Node.js, AWS, MongoDB)
  • Build robust and scalable APIs to support our platform's growing user base
  • Optimize performance and ensure a seamless, user-friendly experience
  • Write clean, well-structured, and maintainable code with a strong emphasis on scalability and security
  • Contribute to system architecture decisions, helping shape the future of Clerkie's technology
Minimum qualifications
  • A soon-to-be or recent graduate (class of 2024 or 2025 preferred) with a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field
  • Proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and experience with React.js, Next.js, or Node.js
  • Comfortable working with databases (SQL or NoSQL, e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB)
  • Ability to manage project priorities, meet deadlines, and deliver results independently
  • Excitement for being part of a small, fast-moving team where every day brings new challenges and opportunities to learn and grow
Preferred qualifications (ranked by priority and not required):
  • Personal or school projects involving full-stack development
  • Exposure to AWS, Docker, or CI/CD pipelines
  • Experience with testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha)
  • Interest in fintech or financial literacy
Other adds
  • Passion for our mission
  • Experience building and scaling products
  • Proactive team player who can work with others towards a common goal
  • Extreme focus on the user with a healthy obsession for solving their needs
  • Committed to being a part of something bigger than yourself
