Job description

About Supabase

Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.

About the Role

We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the Billing team at the company. Billing owns the monetization and revenue systems that turn platform usage into accurate customer charges and finance-ready revenue data. The team’s scope includes plans, subscriptions, usage-based billing, invoices, payments, credits, coupons, taxation, dunning, collections, pricing mechanics, entitlements, marketplace and partner billing paths, and integrations with providers such as Stripe and Orb.

Billing sits at the intersection of engineering, product, finance, data, support, and partnerships. The systems are revenue-critical and trust-critical: they must remain correct, predictable, supportable, observable, and extensible as the company grows and introduces new products, pricing models, and partner channels.

This is a people, delivery, and technical leadership role. We don’t expect managers to contribute production code directly, but we do expect you to participate in architecture and design discussions, challenge plans with sound technical reasoning, and set a high bar for correctness, reliability, and operational maturity.

• Own the Billing roadmap and project management in Linear, driving accountability, clear milestones, and predictable delivery.

• Balance new pricing and product capabilities with investments in system correctness, resilience, supportability, and technical debt.

• Manage workflow intake and Slack triage, deciding what should be routed, prioritized, sequenced, or pushed back on.
