Early career
Miller worked at a Lululemon store in Ohio before joining the Marine Reserve in 2013. He was a corporal and made no deployments. In 2019, he was transferred from the Selected Marine Corps Reserve to the Individual Ready Reserve.{{Cite web|url=https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/07/28/max-miller-ohio-congress-trump-profile-500187|title = 'He's a Great Guy': Trump's Favored Aide Has Troubled Past|date=July 28, 2021|first=Michael|last=Kruse|work=Politico Magazine}}
Trump administration
After initially working for Marco Rubio's campaign for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, Miller left the campaign in February 2016 and joined Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. After working as a Trump campaign aide, Miller became a political appointee in the Trump administration. He was a confidential assistant in the United States Department of the Treasury in 2017, then a lead advance representative in the White House Office,{{Cite web|title=Trump Town: Max L.

In June 2020, Miller was among the aides who accompanied Trump on his photo op at St. John's Church; a month later, he was appointed "deputy campaign manager for presidential operations" on Trump's reelection campaign. A favorite of Trump, Miller praised him as "the greatest POTUS this country has ever had." He helped organize the 2020 Republican convention, and was a Trump negotiator for the presidential debates.
In 2018, Miller was one of several Trump administration officials scrutinized for their inexperience and lack of qualifications. Miller's LinkedIn page falsely claimed that he was a Marine recruiter and that he had graduated from college in 2011 rather than in 2013. After The Washington Post raised questions about his biography, Miller removed the claims and called them mistakes made by a relative, who he said made the LinkedIn page on his behalf.
Miller was appointed to the Holocaust Memorial Council by President Trump in December 2020.{{Cite press release |date=December 15, 2020 |title=President Trump to Appoint New Council Members — United States Holocaust Memorial Museum |url=https://www.ushmm.org/information/press/press-releases/president-trump-to-appoint-new-council-members-1 |access-date=May 30, 2022 |website=United States Holocaust Memorial Museum}}

In February 2021, Miller launched a campaign for Congress in the redrawn 7th district. The district overlapped with what had previously been the 16th, represented by two-term Republican Anthony Gonzalez. Miller was initially set to face Gonzalez in the Republican primary, but Gonzalez announced in September 2021 that he would not seek reelection to a third term, denouncing Trump as a "cancer for the country" and citing the likelihood of a "brutally hard primary" against Miller, family considerations, and a wave of threats against him.{{Cite news |last=Martin |first=Jonathan |date=September 16, 2021 |title=Ohio House Republican, Calling Trump 'a Cancer,' Bows Out of 2022 |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/16/us/politics/anthony-gonzalez-ohio-trump.html}}{{Cite web |last=Gomez |first=Henry J. |date=September 17, 2021 |title=Ohio Rep.

Miller pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges in 2007 after being charged with assault, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest; the charges were later dismissed as part of a diversion program.
In 2009, he was charged with underage drinking; after he pleaded no contest, that charge was dismissed under a first-time offenders' program.
In 2010, Miller pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct stemming from a late-night physical altercation in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.
In 2011, he was charged with "operating a vehicle without reasonable control" and operating a vehicle impaired (OVI) after crashing his Jeep Grand Cherokee, and told officers that he had had "two to three beers and several shots" the night before and "woke up in urine-soaked pants". Miller pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and failure to control. In 2018 and 2021, he called the events "youthful mistakes".
