• Turn usage into revenue. We charge based on data, which means we need rock-solid metering. You’ll build the systems that count every event, sync it with payment providers, and ensure invoices are accurate down to the cent. • Drive reliability and risk management. You will own the reliability of the platform, proactively identifying risks before they become incidents. You’ll foster a security-first culture and ensure our monitoring efforts are world-class. • Provide mentorship and improve the process. You will define the standards for code quality, testing, and observability. You act as a force multiplier—mentoring others, reviewing PRDs to ensure technical feasibility, and simplifying complex technical designs to align with product goals. • Within 1 week, you'll have shipped your first piece of production ready code. • Within 3 months, you’ll extend our billing system and provide more transparency into usage and help our customers to maintain full control over observability cost. This includes improving cost visibility through usage dashboards and forecasting, and strengthening the notification pipeline to ensure timely alerts reach the right stakeholders. • Within 6 months, you’ll establish new architectural patterns in Go in our billing solution, raising the bar for reliability and maintainability. You'll deepen integrations with marketplace and CRM tools, and actively mentor engineers across the organization on billing architecture and third-party integrations. • Within 12 months, you'll be a technical authority for our revenue engineering backend, having guided the team through major scaling challenges across billing, metering, and marketplace integrations. You'll shape the product roadmap by bridging technical constraints with customer needs - translating usage patterns and cost control requirements into reliable, scalable billing infrastructure.
