The MakeOS Mission

The world’s best productions, the ones people talk about, share, and remember,  are powered by incredible producers. And almost no software. Behind the scenes, it’s still spreadsheets, emails, and duct-taped workflows holding together projects worth millions. 

We’re building MakeOS to change that.

MakeOS is the operating system for modern production. A single system that brings together budgets, vendors, approvals, and payments in real time, creating a true source of truth for how production actually runs. When you remove the chaos, producers get their time and headspace back to focus on the craft, the decisions, and the moments that make something great. We’re not here to replace the people who make culture. We exist to make it better.

About The Team

We’re a small, high-trust, VC-backed team where people take real ownership. We move quickly, stay close to decisions, and keep things simple with no unnecessary layers, no excess process. The bar is high, the feedback is direct, and the work is real. You’ll be working alongside people who care deeply about what they build and how they build it.

About The Role

At MakeOS, trust is built in the details most people never notice.

Our product handles real money, so confidence comes from how it behaves when it matters. We often think of the Toyota engineer who spent years perfecting the sound of a car door closing—that solid thud signaling security.

That is this role.

You’ll build the systems that ensure our product is reliable, consistent, and trustworthy before it ever reaches a user. This includes rigorous validation, fixing bugs, and improving overall product quality. By focusing on edge cases and the details most people overlook, your work gives the team confidence to move fast without breaking what matters. This role is for someone who takes pride in getting those small, critical details right. There is significant growth opportunity with this position; you won't be stuck in the QA world 100% of the time, with paths to expand into broader feature implementation and engineering challenges.

The MakeOS Principles

 At the core we are here to make production easier.

1. Relentless Focus

We prioritize the few things that matter most.
Focus allows us to move faster, build deeper, and deliver meaningful progress rather than spreading effort across competing priorities.

2. Product-Level Craft

Great technology is built through disciplined attention to detail.
From architecture to interface, we pursue a standard of craft that makes the product reliable, intuitive, and built to last.

3. End-to-End Ownership

The best products emerge when the people building them take full responsibility for the outcome.
Teams own problems from concept through execution, ensuring alignment between design, engineering, and delivery.

4. Confidential by Default

Trust is built through disciplined stewardship of information.
We operate with confidentiality around our product, roadmap, and partners so teams can move quickly and customers can trust our systems.

5. User Experience Drives Everything

Technology exists to serve the user.
We design and build with the real workflows, pressures, and decisions of our users in mind, ensuring the product solves meaningful problems in the real world.
