Job description
Engineering at Milo & Mew builds the systems that make excellent care scalable—inside the clinic and beyond it. We partner closely with clinical leadership and operations to translate real workflows into software that is fast, reliable, and calm to use. Our bar is simple: the product should reduce friction for teams, increase clarity for pet parents, and hold up under real-world complexity—high volume, high emotion, and high trust.
About the Role
As a Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack, you will own meaningful parts of our platform end-to-end— from backend services and data models to the front‑end experiences teams rely on every day. You'll work with product, design, and clinical partners to ship features that improve patient flow, communication, and operational consistency, while keeping performance, privacy, and reliability at the center.
In this role, you will:
Build and ship end-to-end features that improve the care experience for pet parents and the day-to-day workflows for clinic teams
Own backend services and APIs, ensuring correctness, performance, and clear interfaces for product surfaces
Develop clean, maintainable front‑end experiences with strong UX fundamentals and attention to detail
Design data models and persistence patterns that are durable, observable, and easy to extend
Partner cross‑functionally to define scope, make tradeoffs, and deliver high‑quality outcomes on realistic timelines
Raise the engineering bar through code review, system design, testing discipline, and thoughtful technical leadership
Improve platform reliability through monitoring, incident learnings, and preventative engineering
Build with trust in mind—privacy, security, and safe handling of sensitive information by default
Deliver full‑stack contributions across our core systems, including: internal tooling for clinic operations and staff workflows, client‑facing booking, messaging, and care‑plan experiences, integrations with external services and data sources, performance and reliability improvements across critical paths
You might thrive in this role if you:
Care about shipping real products that hold up in real life—not just in demos
Bring strong judgment and can simplify complex problems into clear, buildable solutions
Write clean, readable code and invest in systems that other people can successfully extend
Communicate clearly with technical and non‑technical partners, especially when tradeoffs are required
Enjoy building in a high‑trust domain where quality and reliability genuinely matter
Qualifications
8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with significant backend ownership
Strong TypeScript and Node.js experience building production services and APIs
Experience with modern frontend development using React and TypeScript; Tailwind experience is a plus
Hands‑on experience with MongoDB (or comparable document or relational databases) and practical data modeling skills
Experience shipping cloud‑native systems on AWS and/or GCP, including observability and operational readiness
Strong testing and quality practices, including unit, integration, and end‑to‑end approaches where appropriate
Comfort working in ambiguous, fast‑moving environments and turning requirements into shipped outcomes
What We’ll Offer You
Competitive compensation and meaningful equity ownership
Performance bonus opportunity (role dependent)
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
Retirement plan support with employer contributions (where available)
No non‑compete agreements—ever
Clear growth paths and leadership development opportunities
Four weeks of paid time off
Paid parental leave
Paid company holidays
Monthly Health & Wellness stipend
Learning support for professional development (conferences, courses, continuing education)
Discounted veterinary care and pet‑care benefits
The chance to make a tangible impact on your team, your clients, and your community
A collaborative team that lives our values and shows up for each other
About Milo & Mew
Milo & Mew is building veterinary clinics that feel better to walk into—and better to work in. We're rethinking the care experience end-to-end: clearer communication, calmer spaces, and systems that support clinicians and staff so they can focus on what matters—great medicine and genuine connection.
We believe the best care is delivered by teams who feel supported, respected, and set up to succeed. To achieve that, we value different perspectives, lived experiences, and ways of working—and we build with that diversity at the center.
