About Cisco Meraki

For the past 10 years, Meraki has had a singular focus on making IT simple yet powerful. A key part of an IT team's toolbox is making networks intuitive to setup and manage. Essential to achieving this goal is simplifying the world of Mobile Device Management as our world becomes an increasingly mobile place. Our Systems Manager development team is dedicated to achieving this simplicity by streamlining the control of devices at an enterprise level. We work as a small and lean team and wear many hats.

The Opportunity

Meraki’s engineering culture is one of innovation and ownership. You will have a strong hand in not just building the technology but also defining what we should be building. As a Senior Windows Engineer, you will work on building apps that facilitate management, inventory, and policy enforcement on both company and personally owned Windows devices. These apps have both user facing features and background services to talk to the Meraki cloud, so you will have the opportunity to work anywhere from high performance backend algorithms to reusable front-end components. Your work will run on millions of devices and you will have the ownership to impact customers who touch this tool on a global level.

Meraki believes that the quality of our product is dependent on the quality of our engineers. We place a high value on nurturing the growth and development of everyone on our team. We foster an open and supportive workplace where everybody is given the opportunity to succeed.
