About

At Clera, we believe the best products are built when talented people live and work together, pushing each other to greatness. Our team operates from a San Francisco hackerhouse, where zero commute and constant collaboration create 10× faster feedback loops. We're a group of A-players who moved from Germany, Canada, and Sweden to build something meaningful - all-in on our mission to revolutionize recruiting with AI. Our engineers ship to production daily, working with cutting-edge tools like Cursor to build fully agentic systems that automate complex workflows. We optimize for impact over facetime, which is why we chose to live and build together rather than maintain traditional offices.

When you join Clera, you're not just taking a job - you're becoming part of a founding team that takes full ownership, moves fast, and isn't afraid to scrap code when there's a better way forward. We work with high agency, resourcefulness, and an obsession with creating real value for thousands of talents who engage with our platform every week. The culture is intense but incredibly productive - a live-in hackathon where everyone shares the same vision of disrupting the $600B headhunting industry with AI-first automation.

Clarium

In the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, the founders witnessed hospitals across the world struggling to secure basic PPE and essential medical supplies. The problem was clear: healthcare systems lacked real-time data, automated processes, and modern software tools to manage their supply chains effectively. They saw frontline healthcare workers forced to make critical decisions with incomplete information, and supply chain teams overwhelmed by manual, fragmented systems. This realization became Clarium's founding moment. They vowed to create a provider-centric data platform that would help hospitals modernize and optimize their supply chain operations. Today, Clarium's Astra OS unifies data from across healthcare systems and suppliers, using AI-powered insights and intelligent automation to predict disruptions, identify substitutes, and unlock millions in savings for major health systems like Yale New Haven Health, Stanford Medicine, and Geisinger.

Sardine

In 2020, Soups Ranjan witnessed over a million dollars lost to identity fraud and realized something critical: these losses could have been prevented with the right data. As a data scientist who had spent decades combating fraud at Coinbase and Revolut using machine learning, he understood that all fraud problems are fundamentally data problems - but finding the right data meant sifting through dozens of siloed providers and dashboards while fraudsters attacked in real-time. So he founded Sardine to capture the most relevant signals and apply cutting-edge machine learning to detect risk before damage occurs. Today, Sardine has evolved into the world's leading behavior-infused fraud and compliance platform, trusted by over 300 banks, retailers, and fintechs globally. The company's unified platform combines device intelligence, behavior biometrics, and AI to stop identity fraud, payment fraud, account takeovers, and social engineering scams - all before they happen. With $145 million raised from world-class investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Visa, and Google Ventures, Sardine continues to innovate its AI risk platform that serves customers in over 70 countries, securing more than $150 billion in payments and stopping over $21 billion in fraud attempts.
