# Technical Lead, Customs Platform

KlearNow is an AI-powered customs brokerage and global trade compliance platform, based in the Bay Area with engineering in Gurgaon. We are building one AI-native platform across brokerage, drayage and visibility, where agents handle routine work and our customs experts handle the judgment calls. The Role You will own the customs module end to end: its architecture, its code and the team that builds it. The module takes a shipment from extracted documents to a compliant filing, covering entry, ISF, duty calculation and post-entry corrections. It is a hands-on lead role in a domain where a software mistake becomes a penalty for an importer. What you will do Own the design of the customs module: entry data model, duty and fee engine, CATAIR validation, and ABI filing with ACE. Build the brokerage agent workflow, where agents draft and check entries and a broker approves before anything is filed. Keep regulated logic deterministic and tested, and use models only where inputs are ambiguous. Build the evaluation sets that gate every prompt, model and rule change. Make tariff and regulatory changes land as data or configuration in days. Consolidate services, own the module in production,
