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. For remote roles, we ask you to join us in person 1x per quarter. 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 a member of the infrastructure team, you’ll play a key role in maintaining a high bar for reliability. Our customers depend on our systems being operational, as downtime can directly lead to lost revenue.

In this role you will:
Lead infrastructure resiliency efforts - recovery mechanisms, tenant isolation, load spike handling, etc
Improve observability and operability of our systems
Build performance-critical, user-facing infrastructure (eg. real-time event processing)
Plan scaling initiatives to handle large customer growth
Partner with other engineering teams to ensure we build reliable product features
Learn from a talented peer group, and share your expertise
About you:
You think deeply about edge cases, failure modes, bottlenecks, etc
You have a knack for investigating and debugging tricky errors and performance issues
You enjoy building scalable infrastructure for a high-growth product
You can effectively mentor fellow engineers on best practices (observability, rollout strategies, risk mitigation, etc)
You have 5+ years of experience in software engineering, and you’ve worked in in the infrastructure domain for 4+ years

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!
