Clipbook is on a mission to reinvent how leaders listen to and engage with the entirety of the world’s information. We’re building a platform that ingests, understands, and surfaces insights and actions from the entire universe of news, broadcast, and social media--at scale, across text, audio, and video, and in real time. We’re profitable, growing fast, and already powering decision-making for hundreds of organizations like the City of New York, Taco Bell, and the Gates Foundation.
With previous experiences as leadership team members and founders of startups backed by top VCs including Sequoia, Tiger Global, Insight Partners, Coatue, and NFX, Clipbook’s founding team is backed by Mark Cuban and previously cut their teeth at BCG, Bain, Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, the White House, and U.S House & Senate.
Why Join Us as a Founding Engineer:
Shape the Future: You’ll be one of the very first engineers, owning core architecture and product decisions that will define Clipbook for years to come
Direct Customer Impact: Build and ship features used by 200+ customers, with instant feedback and visible impact
Technical Challenge: Tackle the hardest problems in AI, semantic search, and large-scale data engineering-across all media modalities
High Autonomy: No bureaucracy. You’ll have a blank canvas, massive influence, and a direct line to both customers and founders
Career-Defining Opportunity: This is a rare chance to build a category-defining product and company from the ground up, with outsized equity and leadership potential
What You'll Do:
Architect & Build: Design and deliver robust, scalable systems across the stack (TypeScript, React, Python, Node, SQL/NoSQL). Own end-to-end features from concept to deployment
AI/ML Integration: Productionize LLMs and classical ML models for real-world, high-uptime applications. Leverage the latest in generative AI tooling and frameworks
Data Engineering: Build pipelines and infrastructure for ingesting, normalizing, and querying massive, multi-modal datasets
Technical Leadership: Set engineering standards, mentor future hires, and drive best practices in code quality, testing, and deployment
Customer Collaboration: Work directly with users to understand pain points, iterate quickly, and deliver solutions that matter
What We're Looking For:
3-5+ years building and scaling full stack across front-end, back-end, and databases
Genuine excitement and ability to build quickly & ship fast
Hands-on experience shipping AI/ML-powered features in production
Deep knowledge of cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and CI/CD
Proven ability to design and optimize data architectures for performance and cost
Strong product sense and bias for action-comfortable making decisions with incomplete information
Experience in early-stage startups or as a technical founder is a huge plus
Bonus Points:
Experience with LLM fine-tuning, RAG, or RLHF pipelines
Familiarity with web scraping frameworks (Playwright, Puppeteer) and different types of API integrations (REST, GraphQL)
Comfortable with asynchronous workflows, rate-limiting, and distributed systems
Work experience as a founder or founding engineer at early stage startups
What You'll Get
Compensation: $180–$210k salary, high-upside equity, and full benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k, unlimited PTO)
Ownership: Direct influence on product and company strategy
Growth: Opportunity to build and lead a world-class engineering team as we scale
Culture: High trust, low ego, rapid iteration, and a relentless focus on solving real customer problems
Mission: Join a team passionate about building tools that empower leaders to make sense of the world’s information chaos
