The role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, finance, data, support and partnerships and requires strong collaboration with multiple stakeholders.

• Balance new pricing/product capabilities with system correctness, resilience and debt reduction.

What they are asking for

• 5+ years of engineering experience with credibility with engineers building complex systems.

• Experience managing a billing engineering team at a cloud, SaaS or developer tools company (billing domain preferred).
• Experience leading remote, globally distributed teams that work asynchronously across time zones.
• Strong people management mindset with focus on psychological safety and feedback culture.
• Proven ability to coach rather than direct, remove blockers, and empower engineers to own work.
• Track record of performance management with examples of difficult conversations.
• Ability to operate amid ambiguity and create structure where needed.
• Clear written and verbal communication; comfortable with async, written communication.
• Collaborative, low-ego style suitable for senior ICs with strong technical opinions.
