Why you should join Mighty
Mighty makes Google Chrome faster & use 10x less memory.
We spend most of our time in a web browser but it's often our slowest app. Mighty speeds up Chrome on your laptop by streaming it from a more powerful computer in the cloud—that makes your browser & other apps run significantly faster. Unlike regular Google Chrome, it doesn't slowdown if you have too many tabs open. It uses less power & CPU to prolong battery life. Web pages load half a second faster. When you have many tabs open, it will help you quickly find a tab. Built for speed, it's like putting a rocket booster on your web browser.
Mighty was started by the founder of Mixpanel & we’re looking to hire an engineer to join our small team.
** We are only hiring remotely within USA & Canada **
