Mill is a waste prevention technology company reimagining what it means to eliminate waste, starting with food. We build smart systems and infrastructure for homes, businesses, and municipalities that transform food scraps from landfill-bound waste into valuable resources, including chicken feed. Tens of thousands of Mill’s residential food recyclers are already helping households divert millions of pounds of food scraps every year, paving the way for our upcoming launch of Mill Commercial—the industry’s first end-to-end solution for managing, understanding, and preventing food waste in commercial environments (e.g. grocery, restaurants, food services). At Mill, we are passionate about building easy-to-use, beautifully designed technologies that keep food in the food system and out of landfills.

We’re looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join our Software Quality team and help lead our test automation strategy across the Mill ecosystem — spanning embedded firmware, mobile apps (iOS/Android), web, and cloud platforms. This role will play a key part in shaping our end-to-end quality strategy and building the frameworks that ensure reliability and scalability in our rapidly evolving products.
