Founding Mobile Engineer

About Cluely

Cluely is first true desktop copilot: an always-on, real time, invisible AI assistant that can proactively offer help and complete work. Cluely is looking for strong mobile engineers to help us take the mobile app from 0 → 1.

Our company mission is AI maximalism: everywhere AI can be used, it should be used. Some will view it as cheating, but you will be contributing to a world where humans never have to think alone again.

Users are using us for assistance on sales calls, for help coaching clients, and advice when navigating complicated enterprise software environments. Since launching at the end of April, we have:

• Achieved strong product-market fit in both consumer and enterprise settings: we crossed >7M in ARR among consumers and enterprise deals and have 250,000+ users.

• Assembled one of the strongest growth and marketing distribution channels in recent memory: we are able to consistently get hundreds of millions of views through Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok.

• Raised a $15M series A from a16z, who are investors in Cursor and Wiz - previously two of the fastest companies to hit 100m in ARR.

Our engineering team is a mix of young, ambitious builders and seasoned senior engineers. We move fast, learn from each other, and everyone’s voice matters.

About the Role
