Vice President of Software Engineering

We help millions of people create homes they love

In the beginning, in 2016, we were just two best friends working on a simple idea: how to make it super easy to turn your favorite smartphone photos into awesome wall art.

Today, we have multiple product lines with millions of customers, including Mixtiles, Mixtiles Art, Easyplant, Around, and Daydream. And we're shipping new products every year.

We love what we do, and we love people who love what they do. If you're that kind of person, read on.

Small team = a lot of impact

We’re ~100 people, with wildly diverse skill sets, serving millions of customers. Each of us drives a lot of impact. Your work will matter

Products people love

Working on products you & your family personally use creates a feeling of connection, fun, and spreads good karma

Our secret formula = make it easy to use

It’s how we re-invented the picture frame, and then the houseplant. It’s how we got to millions of customers. It’s pure design, and people love it

Solve hard, real world problems

Every day, we handle extreme challenges in user experience, manufacturing and scale for which we use tech like AI, AR & robotics

A real business, built to last

We believe great products have great unit economics. That’s why Mixtiles is a high growth company that’s also profitable
