Mid-Level Software Engineer - BuildWitt Improve

Our Mission

The Dirt World (food, water, shelter, power, and transportation) is the foundation of humanity. And hardworking people are the foundation of the Dirt World. But these folks—who have served society relentlessly for decades—are retiring.

BuildWitt's mission is to build the Dirt World's next generation by helping companies attract top talent, train them to their fullest potential, and retain them for the long haul.

About Us (Why We're Not For Everyone):

• We push ourselves as a team and individuals, requiring a strong stomach for discomfort and growth.
• We move fast.
• We believe in transparency and radical candor and practice hard conversations regularly.
• Remote doesn't mean we hang out and mess about.
• It's not about us—it's about the Dirt World.
