About this role
About Cluely
Cluely is building AI to give you an unfair advantage in every situation.
It acts as a desktop assistant that takes in screen, mic, and audio context to give you information and suggestions that existing model providers cannot, due to a lack of context.
We will win for two reasons:
- Chatbots are not the best interface for multi-modal AI
- We can make anything viral
About the Role
We work six days a week in-person in San Francisco, 10-12 hours a day.
You are expected to live within a block of the office (housing provided).

- You should know how to efficiently fetch and cache data in a React application
- You should know how to design and structure database schemas that optimize read and write performance
- You should be comfortable deploying and scaling applications and be able to weigh pros and cons of different infra/devops solutions
- I will sanity check all of the above in an interview with you
- Down to gamble your life into greatness
Compensation:
