Our engineering philosophy
We organize into small cross-functional teams that are deeply focused on one product or initiative. These teams are empowered to make product and technology decisions and quickly build the best solutions for our users. Our UA team will consist of a Designer, Product Manager, Sr Backend, Lead FrontEnd, and QA in the nearest few months. We lean heavily on automation, good test coverage, and continuous deployment to ensure we’re constantly getting rapid feedback from our users, and follow the approach of starting small, shipping often, and deferring unnecessary complexity.
We believe that we build better products when our teammates have a variety of perspectives and experiences, so we care a lot about creating a supportive and inclusive environment.

Our Senior’s primary responsibilities are to build significant systems and features, to think about how he can help their team hit their goals, to balance speed and tech debt and to ensure long-term health of the team and systems. He is an experienced and well-rounded engineer with significant depth in at least one part of the stack. He cares about our users and our product and can make meaningful contributions to the direction of the product, in partnership with the COO and Head of Development. Senior also helps to ensure the overall architectural integrity of MiResource systems through participating in cross-team design decisions and identifying technical obstacles and opportunities that impact the engineering team as a whole.

➤ Work closely with functional heads, stakeholders to understand the requirements and come up with solutions.
➤ Architect, develop, and maintain an insight-to-action mental health product
➤ Crafting technical specs, writing readable and extensible code, and keeping tabs on post-release metrics

➤ Investigate and address issues with performance, scalability, and maintainability
➤ Participate in code reviews
➤ Mentor and guide engineers on best practices

➤ Enjoy moving products forward quickly, but want to work at a sustainable pace—we avoid burnout so we can build a business with long-term value
