About the role
- Mill is a waste prevention technology company reimagining what it means to eliminate waste, starting with food.
- This is an individual contributor technical leadership role reporting to the Director of Software Engineering.
- We've moved away from a frontend/backend split at Mill: every engineer here works full stack, typically leaning toward one side based on strength and interest, and teams are organized around projects rather than layers of the stack.
Responsibilities
- Lead the technical design and execution of full-stack web applications, ensuring alignment with business objectives and technical standards
- Design and implement scalable, secure, and efficient full-stack solutions
- Own estimates and technical delivery plans and surface risks early
- Develop and optimize API and user interfaces
- Conduct code reviews and provide constructive feedback to maintain high coding standards.
- Monitor and optimize application performance
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills - especially the ability to partner closely with product without owning the roadmap
- Passion for mentoring and developing engineering talent
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional experience in software development with a focus on full-stack development
- Strong backend experience with TypeScript/Node.js
- comfort with serverless architectures (e.g. AWS Lambda)
- Experience with cloud platforms (we run AWS) and modern deployment workflows
Nice to have
- Experience with our specific stack: SvelteKit (web, deployed on Vercel), React Native (mobile), AWS Lambda with CDK (TypeScript) and Middy
- Familiarity with DevOps practices and infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform, CDK)
- Strong understanding of security best practices in web development
- Comfortable holding technical ownership of a project over a sustained period, while staying energized by the opportunity to rotate onto new problems periodically
- Proactive, self-driven, and eager to take ownership of projects
- Craft elegant, documented, and sustainable code spanning our full web stack, remaining ready to provide support for our native mobile environment when required
- Communicate technical constraints and tradeoffs clearly to your project's product manager.
Compensation
- The estimated base salary range for this position is $185k to $210k, which does not include the value of benefits or a potential equity grant.
Benefits
- Mentor junior engineers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
Company info
- We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our engineering team.
- We expect fluency with tools like Claude Code as part of your daily workflow, and as a senior level engineer, a role in raising the bar for how the team uses them.
- Use AI-assisted development tools fluently as a standard part of how you write, review, and ship code
