Mission

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For decades, construction and field services contractors have had to run their businesses on outdated software: clunky, on‑premise systems created in the 1980s and 1990s.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. The 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. We’ve raised $50M+ from top investors.

Hybrid vs. Remote Approach

We believe the magic of Miter comes from working side by side. For hybrid roles, we expect 3 days a week in the office. If you live within a reasonable commute to either our New York City or San Francisco offices, we ask that you work in our hybrid approach. Otherwise, for remote roles or cities without office location, there is no requirement to work in the office, though we do travel a few times a year for onboarding, company‑wide, and team‑specific off‑sites.

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. Over 25% of our engineers and product managers are ex‑founders. We hire for slope, not intercept.

• No rules – we trust builders to deliver and introduce processes only when necessary.
• Full‑stack – our TypeScript‑based stack and processes encourage end‑to‑end ownership.
• Lean and AI‑native – AI is turning 10x engineers into 100x engineers.
• Blueprints and building blocks – we document to clarify thinking and align teams.
• Customer‑centric – we build direct relationships, feel pain, celebrate success.
• Meritocratic – we reward engineers who consistently ship and deliver needed success.

What You'll Do

• Lead the design and implementation of products and systems‑to‑end.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to shape product architecture and technical roadmap.
• Improve technical quality by providing detailed technical feedback on blueprints and code reviews.

What You'll Need

• 4+ years of software engineering experience with a record of delivering production systems.
• Expertise in technical problem solving, data modeling, and API development.
• Curiosity to deeply understand business context and user needs.
• Strong work ethic and reliability when owning tasks and deliverables.
• Strong communication skills, simplifying complex ideas in writing.
• Collaborative nature with humility, empathy, and a drive to elevate those around you with thoughtful technical feedback.
