About the Role
We’re looking for a Staff Site Reliability Engineer to lead the evolution of Tabs’ platform as we scale. In this role, you’ll operate as a senior individual contributor, partnering closely with engineering and product teams to design, build, and operate systems that are reliable, observable, and easy to develop on.
You’ll own our infrastructure direction, shape how we ship software, and set the standard for operational excellence across the company. This is a high-impact role for someone who enjoys solving complex systems problems, influencing architecture, and raising the reliability bar without becoming a gatekeeper.
What You’ll OwnAWS infrastructure direction and platform evolution, including the migration from ECS/Fargate toward a more modern, scalable runtime
CI/CD systems with a strong emphasis on developer experience, safety, and automation (GitHub Actions today; maturing CD tomorrow)
Ephemeral environments and preview deploys to speed iteration and increase confidence in changes
Observability standards across metrics, logs, and tracing, including alert hygiene, dashboards, and SLO development
Incident response, postmortems, and the reliability culture that surrounds them

Improve observability, alerting, and incident processes across services
Lead high-severity incidents and drive clear, actionable follow-ups
Partner with engineering teams to design resilient, scalable systems
Build automation to reduce toil and lower operational risk
Mentor engineers and influence best practices across teams
You’ve run production systems on AWS and can lead platform-level change
You think in systems: risk, rollback strategy, blast radius, and feedback loops
You treat CI/CD and environments as products that should be fast, reliable, and self-serve
You influence through trust and clarity rather than control
You balance pragmatism with long-term system health
You value learning from failure and improving processes over assigning blame
You communicate clearly and work well across teams

What We Do
Finance software transformed how companies manage spend years ago. Revenue never got the same treatment. Billing, collections, and revenue recognition stayed manual, because the accounting complexity and the risk of getting it wrong made the work hard to automate. So finance teams scaled with headcount instead. As revenue grew, so did the exceptions, judgment calls, and spreadsheet work needed to support it. Meanwhile, revenue itself got more complicated. Companies now price with usage, credits, commitments, consumption, outcomes, and hybrids of them. Products change, pricing changes, and sometimes the unit of value itself changes. Static systems were never designed for that variability. We started Tabs in 2023 to fix this with AI. Today we run the contract-to-cash lifecycle as one connected system: contracts, billing, collections, payments, revenue recognition, and reporting.
Why Work With Us
Founded by operators who’ve spent decades scaling companies and backed by Lightspeed, General Catalyst, and Primary, you will have the opportunity to join a team that is rethinking how revenue runs from contract to cash.
