UI Engineer, Orb

• You have 4+ years of experience in software engineering, with a specific focus on web client technologies
• Enthusiastic about working on a broad range of frontend technical challenges, from reusable UI architecture, to robust data fetching and optimistic updates, to the perils of z-indexing one-offs
• Attention to detail in designing a product with deep user empathy (in visual UX, conceptual modeling, and more), and excitement to partner closely with Orb's Product Design team to manifest great UX
• Excited to engage with customers directly to shape the Orb product
• Based in the San Francisco Bay Area or willing to relocate (with support from Orb)

Desirable

• As an early engineer at Orb, you’ll help to build the technical foundations of a critical product that needs to be reliable and accurate at scale
• You’ll work closely with our customers to understand pain points in their business processes, and help incorporate those insights into our product roadmap
• Our customers rely on Orb to transform an inherently complex domain (billing, from data ingestion to subscription management and revenue recognition) into an efficient, powerful, and easy-to-use experience
• Orb has a broad range of technical and experience challenges that you’ll tackle in concert with our team:
• In the presence of significant domain complexity, our product needs to be exceptionally easy to use - controls should be intuitive, system behavior should be easy to predict, and exception states should be easy to understand
• Orb’s product approach centers around extensibility, where developers can build on top what comes out-of-the-box - maximizing flexibility and extensibility, while providing appropriate guardrails to lead users into the "pit of success", is a perennial challenge
• The Core Billing workstream owns the product surfaces that power customers' business-critical billing-related workflows, across a number of different user personas (think: customer creation, plan creation and versioning, subscription lifecycle management) - there's a ton of inherent complexity and challenge in making these workflows correct, intuitive, and snappy, and you'll be driving standards for excellence here
• You’ll also help lay the groundwork for engineering and product processes, working closely with PM and Design to ensure that our team can continue to build excellent user experiences quickly and serve our customers for years to come
