Currently we are looking to strengthen our team in the area of subscription management, with the goal of improving our sales-assisted customer acquisition and expansion flows through automation.
Your responsibilities
Design and build full-stack features: You’ll own problems end-to-end, collaborating closely with product managers, designers, and other engineers to ship scalable, user-facing features with real impact
Maintain and improve systems: You’ll take shared ownership of our existing systems, ensuring they stay performant, maintainable, and reliable as we grow
Ensure code quality and clarity: You’ll participate in thoughtful code reviews, contribute to architectural decisions, and help raise the bar for engineering excellence across the team
Collaborate cross-functionally: You’ll work closely with teammates across disciplines to ensure we’re solving the right problems and delivering real value to users

Qualities we look for
Strong product engineering mindset: You care deeply about solving real user problems and balance pragmatism with technical rigor when designing systems

Collaborative communicator: You’re a clear communicator, active listener, and team player. You thrive in a collaborative environment and welcome feedback
