Clara Cares brings professional advice and support online so everyone can get help when they need it, in an accessible, secure, and privacy focused way. In close collaboration with non-profit organisations and public institutions, we are building an online infrastructure that integrates into people’s lives regardless of age, education, income, or ability. Our platform connects users with counselling services across social and health domains from housing guidance to career orientation, care advice, and more and we’re now scaling our systems to support the next phase of growth.

You will work closely with backend and mobile teams, making infrastructure decisions that empower developers, enhance resilience, and elevate the way we deliver software. In addition, you will contribute to our Go backend services or be willing to grow into this area.
