A Better Built World
At Miter, we’re on a mission to help construction contractors build with confidence. If we’re successful, we’ll make it easier and faster to build critical physical infrastructure - roads, bridges, utilities, data centers, housing, etc.
For decades, construction and field services contractors have had to run their businesses on outdated software: clunky, on-premise systems created in the 1980s and 1990s.
That’s where Miter comes in. We’re using AI and embedded payments to rebuild the core HR, finance, and operations systems that underpin our physical economy. Using Miter, contractors like Marathon Electrical, W.J. O’Neil, and Truebeck Construction are building stronger teams, controlling job costs, and accelerating jobsite execution.
This idea is resonating. Since we launched in 2022, we’ve grown to thousands of customers and tens of millions in ARR, making us one of the fastest growing vertical software companies ever. To double-down on our momentum, we’ve raised $50M+ from top investors (Bessemer, Coatue, and Battery) who share our belief that we’re just getting started.
About the Team and How We Work:
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 ex-founders, 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.
- Full-full-stack: Our technology stack (TypeScript everywhere!) and processes are designed to encourage engineers to run their projects end-to-end. This usually involves writing technical blueprints, implementing full-stack solutions, and talking to customers directly to get feedback.
- Lean and AI-native: AI is turning 10x engineers into 100x engineers. We believe lean, talent-dense, AI-native 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.
- Define and drive the technical vision and architecture for Miter’s core systems and product lines.
- Lead cross-team 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 tooling/process improvements.
- 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.
- React + React Native
- Node/Express
- MongoDB

- Competitive Compensation: We offer competitive (well above “market”) salary, commission, and equity packages.

- 401(k) Retirement Plan: Company-matched contributions to help you plan for your future.
- Unlimited PTO: Take the time you need to recharge and be your best self.
- Parental Leave: Generous 16-week paid leave for all parents, including adoptive and foster parents.
- Office Extras: Snacks, coffee, lunch, and commuter benefits for in-office Mitosaurs.
- Community: Multiple company-wide and team-specific offsites per year.
