While there may not be a clause in your employment contract there may certainly be a clause in the contract between your employer and the client that could possibly be more hassle than it's worth for the client.

The only way to know is to go through the process with the client, declare the possible conflict early on and let them research it on their side to see if it's worth going through with. Best of luck.

thanks, since I'll be going in via the normal recruiting channel, I assume it's best to bring this up in the initial phone screening phase with the recruiter? or could this harm me if the recruiter decides to just back away without escalating it higher up the chain? it's big tech corporate, so not sure how much agency recruiters have, and how closely they work with the teams they are trying to recruit for?
