Lead Engineer

About Clymber
Clymber is an AI-powered learning platform helping students prepare more effectively for competitive exams through personalized, adaptive learning. We’re building a product that combines strong educational design with AI to understand where students struggle, adapt their learning journey, and help them improve faster. We’re looking for a highly hands-on Lead Engineer who can take ownership of our technology end-to-end — from keeping the existing platform reliable to building the next generation of AI-powered learning features. This is a remote role.
What you will own
You will have the technical ownership of Clymber's everyday functionality and work closely with the founders on product and technology decisions.
Your responsibilities will include:
Own the functionality, stability and ongoing development of our web platform
Identify, debug and resolve technical issues quickly
Build and ship new product features from idea to production
Develop and improve AI-powered features across the learning experience
Build applications, models and workflows using modern coding agents and AI development tools
Translate complex product or learning problems into clear computational solutions
Improve platform architecture, performance and scalability as we grow
Take ownership of technical decisions and help define our longer-term engineering roadmap
Work closely with the founders to rapidly prototype, test and iterate on new ideas
What we are looking for
Strong experience building products, models, websites or applications using coding agents / AI-assisted development tools
Excellent debugging and problem-solving skills
Experience developing AI/LLM-powered products
Strong foundations in mathematics, statistics and probability
Strong and fast computational thinking — you can break complex problems into logical systems and implement them efficiently
Comfortable working independently and taking full ownership of technical problems
Ability to move quickly in a startup environment without sacrificing reliability
Preferred
Experience with full-stack development
Experience building mathematical, computational or educational frameworks/products
Experience working in an early-stage startup or building products from 0→1
What makes this role exciting
This isn’t a role where you’ll simply execute tickets. You’ll have significant ownership over how Clymber’s technology evolves and will help shape the core product as we scale. You’ll work directly with the founders, experiment quickly, and build AI-driven learning experiences used by thousands of students. This role is for someone who is excited to build, be part of a startup. It is not for someone who is looking for "a job". If we are a match, you will have the opportunity to take on a leading role as our company grows.
