Say goodbye to unstable code!

Here is how hiring a Clojure developer will improve your business:

  1. Clojure is a clean and minimalist code. It means more speed, more productivity, and fewer bugs!
  2. Fewer lines of code, simple, clean, and easy to maintain, leading to a lower operational cost!
  3. Clojure has stable performance, ideal for dealing with concurrency. It’s perfect for high demand and volume.
  4. It runs on the Java Virtual Machine and can operate with Java Systems easily

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

Our Clojure developer will use special high-speed tools and the computer’s graphics power (Neanderthal and core.matrix) to do complex thinking super fast, using one smooth system (JVM). We are talking about experts who can adjust it on the fly to get the best results quickly (using REPL). It’s like having a turbocharged, instantly adjustable brain for your computer tasks!

Reactive Web‑App Development

We headhunt developers who use a specific, reliable system (Ring ecosystem) with special tools (like Compojure and Luminus). They will build clean, well-structured online web apps (REST and HTML apps) that can easily grow from small (MVP) to huge (enterprise API).

High‑Concurrency Services with core.async & Pedestal

Your app will handle many, many lightweight processes without a single callback hell, thanks to Clojure’s core.async channels! And if you need it to run smoothly and instantly, our Clojure developers combine their best tools (core.async with Pedestal to deliver low‑latency endpoints and SSE/WebSocket streams).

Cloud‑Native Data Platforms

Tap into a smart, reliable online storage system (Datomic Cloud) that automatically scales as needed on AWS and keeps a perfect, rewindable history of everything stored in it (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. In other words, they make your app’s interface instantly responsive

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. Your online services will be lightning fast, even hosted in the cloud!

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.

1.Culture-first Recruiting:

As soon as you talk with us or fill our form, the first thing we do is analyze your company. We set up a call with you to understand your culture and the type of people you value working with.

2.The headhunting process begins:

We reach out to hundreds of candidates that we think might be a possible match for you. In 2 weeks, you’ll start reviewing people that match your requirements. We focus on providing you with 3-5 top candidates instead of giving you an endless list.

3.Contracts, payments, documentation, security - we take care of everything:

 Once you select the candidate, we handle all the contracts and payments from day 1. We also take the legal steps required to protect your IP.

What Could Be Simpler

Hire in Weeks, Not Months

You’ll see 3-5 CVs of outstanding people within two weeks of our discovery call. 80% of our clients hire from that first batch, while most of our competitors would take 50 days at their best.

Get People Who Love Working For You

The candidates you’ll interview will have been chosen to match your company’s culture and values. They’ll feel right at home, reducing your turnover. Meanwhile, other hiring companies would offer you a freelancer or an outsourced employee who works for themselves.

Candidates of Proven Quality

The best people already have a job. We find senior developers only, working in established companies–and bring them to your team. On the other side, other recruitment teams will offer people who may not be as good or as skilled, just readily available.

​​Committed Developers Only

No freelancers, no consultants, no outsourcing. Only full-time Clojure developers. Hire career-driven experts ready to be part of your company.

Turnkey Global Payments & HR

Rest easy knowing your hires are well cared for. Our HR service handles global contract payments for you and provides social-emotional support to keep them performing at their best.

Budget Conscious Hiring

By hiring in countries with a lower cost of living, your budget will stretch farther, while your developers will be earning exactly how much they want.

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
