About the role

In Growth, our mission is to help more customers discover Miro. Over the past couple of years we have seen Miro grow massively and become an essential part of the workflow for 45+ million customers, which comes with added technical complexity and the need to build the product for a very different scale. Next to this, with more customers using Miro we continuously learn about new use cases and features we can build, and that requires a different approach to our architecture.

Groups you would support in this role (currently ~90 engineers in total):

• Website & Growth Marketing - all efforts related to public-facing miro.com website, including PPC and SEO
• Acquisition - new, experimental projects aimed at customer acquisition, such as Web Whiteboard
• Miroverse - a couple of teams building our user-generated content capabilities such as Miroverse itself
• Retention & Engagement - teams focusing mostly on new user experience and customer education
• Monetization - teams responsible for pricing, payments, accounting and authorization 

Technology wise, we currently work with Java, Kotlin and Nodejs on the backend, and a mix of React and Angular on the frontend.

• Take ownership of a broad, evolving problem space and rely on your technical expertise to guide us in taking informed decisions.
• Help teams architect business-critical solution and where applicable, contribute hands-on
• Build and lead a community of (senior) engineers with diverse skill sets and help them grow
• Be an advocate for modern development practices and help us foster team autonomy.

What you’ll need
