About Orb:
Orb is redefining what billing software can be, turning one of the most complex parts of running a business into a strategic driver of growth. We're building the revenue design platform that helps teams automate billing, evolve pricing, and grow revenue with confidence. We work with companies like Vercel, Pinecone, Perplexity, and Replit to help them price smarter, bill accurately, and capture more of the revenue they've earned.
Backed by $44.1M in funding from top investors like Mayfield, Menlo Ventures, and Greylock, we're a team that moves fast, holds itself to high standards, and is serious about changing how companies grow.
For SF Bay Area and NYC residents, we've built a hybrid work culture where we are in office 3 days/week. For remote roles, we ask you to join us in person 1x per quarter. Our values, customer centricity, minutes matter, run with it, and attention to detail are at the core of everything we do.
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.

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 Insights
What We Do
Orb is the Revenue Design platform that helps SaaS and GenAI companies design, price, and execute monetization; from contracts and usage to billing, invoicing, and reporting. It is built for Revenue Architects, the product, finance, engineering, and sales leaders who shape how revenue is created. Legacy billing systems are rigid and slow, often forcing companies into workarounds. Orb adapts to any model, from self-serve usage to complex enterprise contracts, so teams can move faster and scale without friction. Companies like Replit, Glean, and Redis rely on Orb to bill millions of users, automate enterprise contracts, and keep finance audit-ready. Backed by Mayfield, Menlo Ventures, and Greylock, Orb is building the platform that turns monetization from a bottleneck into a growth driver.
Why Work With Us
The Orb team places customers, personal and collective ownership, urgency, and attention to detail at the center of everything it does. Solving this mission-critical problem is no easy feat, but our dedicated team holds itself to high standards and every individual makes a big impact on our business, product, and customers!
