Founding Software Engineer

Hey! We're team Clubb 👋 If you haven't already, you should check out what we're building.

We're looking for our first engineering hire to work alongside the founders and help us push Clubb into its AI-first next chapter.

Most established creator platforms are one-size-fits-all. Clubb is different. We give creators the building blocks to launch their own branded membership products - content hosting, payments, growth tools, and AI features that match their vertical. AI is at the heart of where we're heading - we're building agentic and AI-powered features that creators couldn't build for themselves, and that no other platform offers. Our mission is simple: help creators run one-person businesses doing millions in revenue.

Right now Clubb is two founders and our first growth hire. You'd be our first engineering hire, working alongside Rich (tech cofounder), who's built the product to date, and Ben (product cofounder), who runs product strategy. We've tripled revenue in the last few months, work with leading creators like Tyler Butt, Alex Hughes and Amina Taha, and have done it all bootstrapped - no funding raised.

In this role you will

• Own areas of the product end to end - sometimes from a prototype, sometimes a design, sometimes neither. You'll talk directly with creators to understand their problems and the features they need most
• Work across the whole stack: Next.js, Node, Postgres, Stripe, AWS
• Lead on the agentic and AI-powered side of the product - the part where most of the new work sits
• Ship in tight loops: weekly roadmap discussions, rapid AI prototyping, then straight into the code
• Have real agency - if you design or prototype something worth shipping, it ships to hundreds of thousands of users
• Live in tools like Cursor, Claude Code and Codex to ship at a pace that wouldn't be possible otherwise

Your background looks something like

• At least 3 years of engineering experience at a strong, product-driven company
• Shipped agentic or AI-powered features in production, and dealt with the messy reality of non-deterministic systems
• Fluent across the full stack and comfortable working anywhere in it
• Heavy day-to-day use of modern AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex or similar) - you know how to get serious leverage from them
• Strong judgement about what's worth doing well vs what's worth doing fast

As a person you

• Get your thrill from what you can build with code, not what code you can write
• Are first and foremost a builder - given a vague brief, you figure out what needs to happen and get it shipped
• Are excited to work in-person from our London office (minimum 4 days a week)
• Love working in a small, scrappy team where what you ship in the morning is in users' hands by the afternoon
• Are obsessed with AI - you play with the latest models, follow what's happening in the space, and want to be at the cutting edge of building products on top of LLMs
• Have a good eye for design - you don't need to be a designer, but you can spot when something looks wrong and know how to make it look right
• Can hold your own in product conversations and aren't afraid to push back

What we offer

• Comp range: £90,000 - £110,000 per year depending on experience (plus bonuses)
• 25 days holiday

Location

• Minimum 4 days per week in our London office

About the opportunity

The last 15 years of media have democratised celebrity. We're now in the age of the content-led solo founder. With AI, we're helping creators seize that opportunity - building life-changing businesses without needing a team, and delivering great product experiences to millions of users.

Clubb is bootstrapped, profitable and growing fast. We're putting together a small team of high-agency builders to make it happen.

We do our best work in person, four days a week from our office in Peckham. We love collaboration and working together.

Lastly, we think great engineers come from all kinds of backgrounds. If what's written above speaks to you, whether you look like a fit on paper or not, please reach out.
