We help accountants and finance teams instantly extract and analyze data from complex financial documents like bank statements, invoices, and more. Think OCR, data extraction algorithms, document classification, dashboards, AI insights, and automated finance ops—all wrapped in a simple, powerful web app.

We’re a small team, moving fast, and we’re looking for someone exceptional to join us early and help shape the future of the product and the company.

The Role

We’re hiring a Founding Full Stack Engineer—someone self-driven, product-minded, and excited to build impactful software with minimal oversight. You're not just looking for a job; you want to build something—maybe you’ve even shipped your own products before. You care about clean code, intuitive UX, fast performance, and solving real customer pain points.

This is a high-impact role with direct influence over the product, engineering culture, and trajectory of the company.

What You’ll Do

• Own large parts of the product: frontend, backend, architecture, and performance.
• Work directly with the founder to prototype, build, and ship new features fast.
• Write clean, testable, well-structured code that scales.
• Contribute to product direction and roadmap based on user feedback and business priorities.
• Help establish engineering best practices and shape our early tech culture.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React
• Backend: Node.js
• Database: Postgres
• Infrastructure: AWS (Lambda, S3, RDS), Docker

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of full-stack engineering experience.
• Fluent with modern AI-assisted developer tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Cody (by Sourcegraph), or Codeium—and eager to use them to move faster and smarter.
• Deep knowledge of modern web development (React + Node.js).
• Solid understanding of relational databases (Postgres is a plus).
• Experience building and scaling production systems.
• Comfortable owning projects end-to-end—from idea to shipped.
• Strong product instincts and empathy for the user.
• Bonus: Experience in document parsing, OCR, or AI/ML.

Nice-to-Have

• Previous experience as a founding engineer or early-stage startup contributor.
• Side projects or indie products you’ve launched.
• Contributions to open-source projects.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary with generous performance-based bonuses.
• Full remote flexibility, async-friendly work culture.
• High autonomy and ownership—your work directly moves the needle.
• A tight-knit team that moves fast and ships.
• A chance to build something people really use and love.

How to Apply

This role isn’t for everyone. We want builders. If that’s you, send a short video to jorge@docuclipper.com answering these:

• Tell us about a complex technical problem you solved—how did you approach it, and what did you build?
• Walk us through a piece of code (or side project) you’re proud of—what were the decisions and tradeoffs?
• What’s your approach to learning new tools or frameworks quickly?
• Why DocuClipper? What excites you about this opportunity?
