Role Description:

As one of the first members of the team, you will have greenfield opportunities to design and build technology supporting our first product and service offering from scratch. Mill is seeking engineers with excellent technical judgment who are as comfortable building new features as optimizing infrastructure. An ideal candidate will bring a broad set of technical and problem solving skills and relish opportunities to learn and solve novel problems.

You will have the opportunity to work on every stage of product development, from initial design to implementation to scaling. You will work closely with UX designers, product managers, and testers to devise elegant user experiences and bring our team’s long term vision to life! While we are looking for developers comfortable with both backend and frontend development, we’d still love to chat if you lean heavily to one side or the other!

As an important member of the team, you will help build out best practices and procedures and influence our growing company’s culture and team. An ideal candidate loves proactively seeking out problems and devising creative solutions, regardless of technology. We also hope you are as excited about working on sustainability as we are!
