About The Role

As an early engineer at Orb, you’ll help to build the technical foundations of a critical product that needs to be reliable and accurate at scale. You’ll work closely with our customers to understand pain points in their business processes, and help incorporate those insights into our product roadmap. Our customers rely on Orb to transform an inherently complex domain (billing, from data ingestion to subscription management and revenue recognition) into an efficient, powerful, and easy-to-use experience.

In This Role You Will

• Design and maintain core pricing lifecycle primitives with a focus on extensibility and ease of use
• Evolve the product data model to balance complexity and clarity
• Scale real-time ingestion and query systems for large, high-performance deployments
• Collaborate cross‑functionally (PM, design, sales, customer success) to shape strategy and deliver value
• Learn from and contribute to a highly skilled team

About You

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering
• Enthusiastic about working on a broad range of technical challenges across the stack
• Attention to detail in designing a product with deep user empathy (in visual UX, API design, and everything in between)
• Excited to engage with customers directly to shape the Orb product
• Based in the San Francisco Bay Area or willing to relocate (with support from Orb)

Orb’s Tech Stack

• Frontend: Typescript + React + Tailwind CSS
• Backend: Python
• Datastores: PostgreSQL + Apache Druid + Clickhouse
• Streaming Platforms: Kafka + Spark Streaming
• Cloud Platform: AWS

Benefits

• Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance
• One Medical membership
• Unlimited PTO plus an additional week off between Christmas and New Year’s
• 401k plan
• 16‑week paid parental leave with equity vesting
• Commuter stipend
• Catered lunches in the office
• Annual learning & development stipend
• Meaningful equity in the form of stock options
