Clara is the leading spend management platform for companies in Latin America.

📋 Description

• Own the full integration lifecycle for partners and customers who need hands-on delivery support, qualification, scoping, build, and handoff • Run Phase 0 qualification assessments — mapping systems, data flows, risk surface, and build approach before committing to timelines • Build and configure integration connectors, data mappings, and partner adapters using Clara's integration framework and shared libraries • Coordinate directly with partner technical teams throughout the build, acting as the primary technical point of contact • Partner with Platform/API squads to leverage core primitives (webhooks, auth patterns, event contracts) and flag reuse opportunities • Ensure every integration meets Clara's standards: idempotency, observability, secrets management, data minimization, and sandbox testing • Drive clean handoffs — delivering runbooks, dashboards, on-call assignments, and support playbooks before marking an integration as done • Feed learnings back into the platform: identify patterns that should become shared libraries or configuration

🎯 Requirements

• Experience working directly with external partners or customers in a technical capacity, you're comfortable owning the relationship, not just the code • Working directly with end customers • Designing the solution from scratch to meet customer needs • Great communication skills • 4+ years of backend software development experience, with hands-on exposure to API integrations, webhooks, and data mapping • Deep fluency in integration patterns: REST, event-driven architectures, OAuth/token management, idempotency • Ability to move fast in ambiguous environments: qualify a new integration request, scope it, and start building within days • Strong proficiency in one or more backend languages (preferably Java) and comfort working across multiple systems and tech stacks • Working knowledge of observability fundamentals: logs, metrics, tracing, alerting, and SLOs • You use AI tools as a force multiplier, from scaffolding connectors to automating repetitive mapping work • Working proficiency in English and Spanish, or English and Portuguese • Excellent communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences • Exposure to integration platforms or connector frameworks (e.g. N8N, Zapier, or custom-built equivalents)

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive salary and stock options (ESOP) from day one • Multicultural team with daily exposure to Portuguese, Spanish, and English (our corporate language) • Annual learning budget and internal accelerated development paths • High-ownership environment: we move fast, learn fast, and raise the bar — together • Smart, ambitious teammates — low ego, high impact • Flexible vacation and hybrid work model focused on results
