Midnight Mansion is a small, nimble company. We build things that excite us, make decisions with imperfect information, and learn from the real world. At the same time, we encourage each other to pause, reflect, and adjust course when needed. We hire for mindset. Across software, art, engineering, and fabrication, we care about your ability to learn, collaborate, and problem solve all the way to the finish line. We build for the long term, and we believe the best work comes from taking care of the humans doing it. If you're an artist looking for a place to showcase your work, we're also looking for collaborators! Check out our Artist Opportunities Page to learn more. Midnight Mansion’s mission is to bring more delight into the world.
