Job Description
Clojure Software Engineer – Backend
Latino Legends
• Temporal workflows that orchestrate multi-step AI operations: product attribution, laydown image generation, outfit creation, and outfit copy generation • Backend services in Clojure that integrate with LLM APIs (GPT, Gemini, etc.), manage context and prompts, handle streaming responses, and process structured outputs • Data models and PostgreSQL schemas that support complex AI workflows, vector embeddings, and integration with our existing product catalog • RAG pipelines using Qdrant for semantic search, similarity matching, and context retrieval that powers smarter AI recommendations • ClojureScript UIs for review workflows where humans validate, edit, and improve AI-generated content • APIs and data pipelines that connect everything together, monitoring systems that track AI quality, and the infrastructure that lets us ship fast
Job Requirements
- Bachelor's Degree from an accredited college or university in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or other related fields
- Strong Clojure and ClojureScript experience. You've built production systems, you understand functional programming deeply, and you're comfortable with the ecosystem (shadow-cljs, re-frame, reagent etc.)
- Solid SQL skills and database design experience. You can model complex domains in PostgreSQL, write efficient queries, design schemas, and handle migrations. This is important.
- Hands-on familiarity with LLMs. You have worked with LLM APIs and understand prompt engineering, context windows, and the practical challenges of non-deterministic outputs. Production experience is a strong plus, but we care more about genuine understanding than where you got it
- Collaborative by nature. You enjoy solving problems out loud with others, you are comfortable spending a meaningful part of your week in live technical discussion, and you bring energy that lifts the team around you
- Backend engineering fundamentals. You know how to build APIs, design data flows, handle errors gracefully, and architect systems that scale
- High velocity. You ship often. You balance speed with quality, you know when to refactor and when to iterate, and you don't let perfect be the enemy of good
- Ownership mindset. You take responsibility for features from conception to production. You care about the outcome, not just writing code
- Curiosity. You're interested in AI, workflow orchestration, vector search, frontend UIs, data modeling, and figuring out how all the pieces fit together
