Job Description
Job DescriptionA Better Built World
At Miter, we’re on a mission to reverse declining construction productivity and make it easier and faster to build critical infrastructure. Our customers are the construction and field service contractors, and our job is to help them build with confidence.
Leading contractors like Marathon Electrical and Central Valley Environmental use Miter to connect their HR, finance, and operations teams in one platform.
Miter’s software platform connects HR, finance, and operations teams in one platform. In doing so, we help our customers stay compliant, build stronger teams, control job costs, and accelerate jobsite execution.
Founded in 2021, Miter has raised $38M from top investors and is growing rapidly, already serving nearly 1,000 contractors across the US.
Your Future Role
At Miter, we're on a mission to build a world-class Engineering, Product, Design and Support team--and we need you to help make it happen. We're a fast-growing SaaS startup, and recruiting is the key to keep our talent density high as we scale. That's where you come in. We're a lean People and Talent function at Miter, and we're looking for our Founding Senior Technical Recruiter to help us build a better built world!
This is a hybrid role with 3 in-office days per week — Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday — in either our San Francisco or New York office.
We’ve found that some of our best ideas (and best laughs) happen when we’re together in person, so we prioritize time in the office for team connection, collaboration, and momentum. You’re always welcome to come in more often if that’s your style — the office is here for you. The rest of the week is flexible— work from wherever you do your best work!
Why You’ll Love This Role
High impact, high visibility – You’ll play a key role in doubling our engineering team over the next year.
Ownership & autonomy – We trust you to run the show and experiment with new ideas.
A+ team – Work alongside a group of smart, driven, and kind humans who genuinely enjoy what they do.
Culture that values hiring – Recruiting isn’t an afterthought here—it’s a company priority
