Staff Software Engineer

Building the OS for the built world is no small feat. We’ll need to ship a LOT of high quality code in the coming years, and to do so, we’re building an engineering culture centered around craft, ownership, and collaboration. >25% of our engineers and product managers are exfounders, and we hire for slope, not intercept. Being a place where you can just build things requires talent density and some unique ways of doing things.

A few ways we’re different:

• No rules…rules: Many engineering teams design processes and rules around the lowest common denominator. Not us! We trust brilliant engineers to deliver magical customer outcomes and introduce processes and rules only when necessary.

• Fullfullstack: Our technology stack (TypeScript everywhere!) and processes are designed to encourage engineers to run their projects endtoend. This usually involves writing technical blueprints, implementing fullstack solutions, and talking to customers directly to get feedback.

• • Lean and AInative: AI is turning 10x engineers into 100x engineers. We believe lean, talentdense, AInative teams will outship much larger teams with less talent density.

  • Blueprints and building blocks: One of our core Miter values is “build the blueprint”. Writing things down clarifies our thinking and aligns our teams. This also applies to building fundamental building blocks and abstractions that make developers’ lives easier.

  • We feel our customers’ pain and celebrate their success: We encourage engineers to build direct relationships with customers, feel their pain, and celebrate their success. We love fast feedback loops.

  • We’re meritocratic: We value results and hard work. We reward engineers who consistently ship and deliver for customers with increased scope and compensation.

  • What Youll Do:

    • Define and drive the technical vision and architecture for Miter’s core systems and product lines.

    • Lead crossteam initiatives to tackle our most difficult and ambiguous engineering challenges.

    • Actively find new ways to elevate the engineering organization through mentorship, design reviews, and other toolingprocess improvements.

    • What Youll Need:

      • 8+ years of software engineering experience, including technical leadership experience in roles.

      • Deep expertise in system architecture, reliability, and maintainability.

      • Curiosity to explore emerging technologies and push technical boundaries in line with business needs.

      • Proven ability to influence technical direction across multiple teams and products.

      • Ability to lead with humility while driving consensus and high standards.
