ABOUT ORB

Orb is on a mission to revolutionize billing infrastructure for the modern era of AI and software. We empower businesses to align their monetization with product usage—whether through seats, consumption, feature limits, or hybrid pricing models. Our developer-first, data-driven approach enables companies to automate their billing processes and adapt their pricing strategies with ease.

With Orb, revenue workflows are seamless for every team: developers love our intuitive API and extensibility, product managers iterate on pricing and packaging faster, finance teams gain fine-grained reporting for revenue recognition, and customer-facing teams build trust through billing transparency. Companies like Vercel, Pinecone, and Replit rely on Orb to power their most critical revenue initiatives.

Backed by $44.1 million in funding from top investors like Mayfield, Menlo Ventures, and Greylock, we’re building a hybrid, in-office culture in downtown San Francisco (3 days/week). Our team thrives on collaboration, focus, and kindness, with a shared commitment to solving high-impact problems for our customers. At Orb, every team member drives meaningful impact, and we’re just getting started.

This is a unique opportunity for an engineer who loves building product and working directly with customers. You’ll alternate between shipping production-ready features and partnering with customers to help them integrate, launch, and succeed with Orb.

• Work closely with customers to understand their workflows, identify recurring needs, and help shape the roadmap with real-world insights.
• Contribute across the stack to deliver high-quality product features and improve internal tooling.
• Partner cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, Design, Sales, and Customer Success to drive a great end-to-end experience.
• Improve the efficiency of customer-facing teams by reducing manual work through automation and tooling.

ABOUT YOU

• Strong written and verbal communicator, able to clearly explain technical concepts to various audiences.
• Empathetic and user-focused—you care about building intuitive products that solve real problems.
