📌 About the Role

We're hiring a Senior Engineer to own and evolve Scribe's billing platform, the system at the center of how Scribe makes money across 5M+ users and 600K+ organizations. You'll design and operate the infrastructure behind subscriptions, enterprise invoicing, pricing changes, and the subscription lifecycle, with real architectural headroom and a clear path toward entitlements and monetization systems as the role expands.

🛠️ What You'll Do

• Own and evolve Scribe's billing and subscription systems

• Design resilient, event-driven systems that stay correct under retries, partial outages, and race conditions

• Build and maintain reconciliation processes that Finance and leadership rely on

• Improve subscription lifecycle reliability, including renewals, plan changes, invoicing, and payment recovery

• Enable safe pricing and packaging changes without compromising financial integrity

• Shape the long-term architecture of the revenue platform as complexity scales

• Improve system boundaries between billing, entitlements, and reporting to reduce coupling

🔍 What We're Looking For

• You have 6+ years of software engineering experience

• You've built or maintained billing, payments, or other high-integrity financial systems in production

• You think in terms of guarantees: consistency, idempotency, reconciliation, durability

• You're comfortable scoping ambiguous problems and driving them end to end

• You're a strong backend engineer, ideally in Python and Django

• You make sound architectural tradeoffs and are comfortable owning long-term system evolution

✨ Nice to have

• Experience supporting pricing or packaging changes in production systems

• Familiarity with enterprise invoicing workflows and sales-assisted purchasing

• Experience with SaaS tax compliance tools such as Anrok or Avalara

• Experience partnering closely with Finance or Revenue Operations on reconciliation and reporting

• Experience working on entitlements or access control systems

📍 Location

Hybrid. Based in San Francisco. We work from the office 3 days per week.

💰 Compensation

Salary varies by location. All full-time employees receive equity in Scribe. Final offers depend on experience and scope.

🎁 Benefits

• Health, dental, and vision insurance for you and your dependents

• Flexible paid time off and company holidays

• 401(k)

• Paid parental leave

• Daily catered lunch (SF office)

• Commuter benefits

• Home office stipend
