Design and maintain core pricing lifecycle primitives with a focus on extensibility and ease of use
Evolve the product data model to balance complexity and clarity
Scale real-time ingestion and query systems for large, high-performance deployments
Collaborate cross-functionally (PM, design, sales, customer success) to shape strategy and deliver value

Our take

Orb founders Morales and Grover worked together as engineering leaders at Asana for five years, and during their time at the company they witnessed a plethora of changes to pricing and packing. The major changes were a burden not only for the financing team, but for the engineers themselves.

Realising they wanted more flexibility over how software-as-a-service (SaaS) products are billed and monetised, the pair developed Orb. It's a cloud-based software platform helping businesses create and manage pricing models, with a specific focus on helping businesses that are seeking flexible pricing options for their customers, such as subscription-based services or pay-as-you-go models.

Orb is backed by a number of investment organisations as well as founders and executives at the forefront of enterprise software. It expanded its team in 2023 and, in 2024, enjoyed $24 million in funding to accelerate its mission. It's now well-equipped to fulfil its vision of leveraging software so companies can be at their most effective.
