Clojure Full‑Cycle Development

Hire elite Clojure experts proficient in diverse technologies & domains—here are the core services our remote developers can deliver for you:

Clojure AI & Numerical‑Computing Solutions

Leverage high‑performance libraries such as Neanderthal and core.matrix to run GPU‑accelerated linear‑algebra or deep‑learning workloads entirely from Clojure, avoiding the overhead of bridging to Python. Our vetted engineers embed these models inside fast JVM services, with REPL‑driven tuning that slashes iteration time.

Reactive Web‑App Development

We headhunt for developers who can build REST and HTML apps with the Ring ecosystem—routing via Compojure and full‑stack scaffolding through Luminus—for clean, idiomatic code that scales from MVP to enterprise API

High‑Concurrency Services with core.async & Pedestal

Using core.async channels, our teams orchestrate thousands of lightweight processes without callback hell. When you need “APIs‑first” microservices, the best developers can pair core.async with Pedestal to deliver low‑latency endpoints and SSE/WebSocket streams

Cloud‑Native Data Platforms

Tap Datomic Cloud for transactional storage that elastically scales on AWS while keeping a time‑travel audit trail.

ClojureScript Front‑Ends

Full‑stack engineers who can  ship reactive UIs with Reagent, a minimal ClojureScript wrapper for React that uses Hiccup syntax and hot‑reload REPLs to speed feature delivery.

Serverless & Native‑Image Deployment

Need cold starts under a second? Get Clojure experts who can compile GraalVM native binaries and deploy them with frameworks like lambda-clj to AWS Lambda or Google Cloud Run, eliminating JVM spin‑up while staying 100 % Clojure.

How Our Process Works

As a leading remote IT recruitment agency, we care that our clients take part throughout the hiring process. Why? Because for us, hiring a qualified candidate is not only about the skills and abilities, but it’s also about how candidates match with your company’s culture.

Hiring Guide

How to Hire a Clojure Developer Fast and Secure?

We have a simple and effective strategy to find handpicked and vetted candidates at a fraction of the cost: remote recruitment. With over a decade of experience, our screening team targets timezone-friendly areas to find English-speaking candidates with expertise in international projects and US quality standards.

For example, in Latin America, Eastern Europe, or Asia, you can find Clojure Experts at a fraction of the usual cost. Unlike freelancing and outsourcing, hiring a full-time remote candidate allows you to have direct management over developers. And you can trust your dev team with critical tasks and data management since your in-house developers won’t have other clients or projects on their plate.

At DistantJob, we can help you find a Clojure Developer you can trust in less than two weeks. Analyzing your company culture, we test technical and communication skills to fulfill your company’s needs. We select vetted and handpick candidates for you, cutting down hiring costs and increasing your performance over time.

Skills to Look For In a Clojure Developer

You should screen Clojure candidates for a blend of deep functional‑programming chops, JVM know‑how, and modern tooling fluency. Below is a  checklist of the most important hard and soft skills—each one tied to authoritative community or industry sources—to help you separate true Clojure pros from résumé buzzwords.

Core Language & Functional Foundations

  • Idiomatic Clojure & immutable data structures—mastery of sequences, persistent maps/vectors, and destructuring is non‑negotiable
  • Functional‑programming mindset (higher‑order functions, pure transformations, recursion) underpins maintainable code
  • JVM ecosystem familiarity for tuning GC, monitoring JMX metrics, and leveraging Java interop when needed

Concurrency & Asynchronous Processing

  • core.async channels & go blocks to orchestrate thousands of lightweight processes without callback hell
  • Understanding software transactional memory, agents, and refs for safe state management in multithreaded apps

Tooling & Build Ecosystem

  • Proficiency with both Leiningen and the newer tools.deps / deps.edn + tools.build workflow, switching as project needs evolve
  • Daily REPL‑driven development habits for hot‑reloading, namespace navigation, and interactive debugging

Web & API Development

  • Hands‑on experience with the Ring specification and routers like Compojure or full stacks such as Pedestal/Luminusfor REST and SSE/WebSocket services

Data & Persistence

  • SQL access via next.jdbc or hugsql, plus fluency with Datomic or Datomic Cloud for time‑travel queries and immutable storage
  • Kafka pipeline integration through kafka.clj for event‑driven architectures

Front‑End with ClojureScript

  • Building reactive UIs in Reagent or Rum, bundling with shadow‑cljs, and optimizing for production

Testing & Quality Assurance

  • Writing unit and property tests with clojure.test or Kaocha, plus linters like clj‑kondo for static analysis
