About the team

The Canvas Performance team will be responsible for building the render core of the Miro Whiteboard. We care a lot about the performance of our product. The team goal is to provide a render engine that will be able to render thousands of widgets in a collaboration scenario.

Collaboration inside the team is as important as in product, that’s why we pay attention to a friendly atmosphere, microclimate, and self-development.

Each role at Miro is based at one of our physical hubs and we look for talent that want to be part of these local, collaborative communities. Mironeers work in a hybrid model, with 3 days a week in office culture as our baseline.

About the role

  • Create Canvas performance protection strategy to cover it on different levels by tests and implement it (dive into how different levels and abstraction of Miro work and how it influences on performance)
  • Work on performance and optimizations in collaboration with the team

  • Master knowledge of TS/JS, nice to have Java background
  • Understanding of frontend technologies such as React/Angular, and the way SPA works
