Job description

About Orb:

We’re a team that cares deeply about the work, the people we do it with, and the customers we do it for. Everyone at Orb has real ownership over their work, direct access to customers, and a voice in how the company grows. We’re building the revenue design platform that helps teams automate billing, evolve pricing, and grow revenue with confidence.

Looking ahead, joining forces with Adyen expands what we can build and raises the ceiling on the problems we get to solve for customers. The challenges are uniquely interesting, and you’ll be surrounded by thoughtful, ambitious people who move fast and hold a high bar.

For San Francisco Bay Area, New York, and Amsterdam residents, we’ve built a hybrid work culture where we are in office 3 days/week. Our values, customer centricity, minutes matter, run with it, attention to detail, and go further together are at the core of everything we do.

About the role:

As an 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 :

At Orb, we believe great engineers can learn any stack, so you do not need experience with these specific tools, and we encourage you to apply regardless.

• Frontend: Typescript + React + Tailwind CSS

• Backend: Python

• Datastores: PostgreSQL + Apache Druid+ Clickhouse

• Streaming Platforms: Kafka + Spark Streaming

• Cloud Platform: AWS

Equal Opportunity Employer

We work with each other day in and day out, and strongly believe that building a diverse and inclusive team is key to our long‑term goals and success as a company. We provide equal employment opportunities to all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by law.
