About the role
- Build to last: Design, build, and evolve high-performance systems that are scalable, resilient, and reliable—ensuring Metronome grows with low maintenance and high customer confidence.
- Deliver impactful features: Work across the stack to create customer-delighting experiences, from robust APIs to intuitive UIs.
- Elevate the team: Collaborate across functions, mentor peers, and contribute to a culture where smart, low-ego teammates push each other to grow—like a world-class orchestra.
- Act like an owner: Take accountability from design to delivery, pitch in wherever needed, and help Metronome meet the moment as we scale.
- Build the backbone of scale: This is the moment we’re re-architecting core systems to 10x Metronome’s capabilities. You’ll wrestle with hard technical constraints around speed, accuracy, and scale, making tradeoffs that set us up for long-term success while giving engineers an easier, more reliable platform to build on.
- Push the boundaries of billing: Our customers include some of the most innovative companies in the world—especially in AI—whose needs are redefining what’s possible in pricing and monetization. By meeting their demands, you’ll help shape not just Metronome’s product, but the future of billing across the industry.
- Shape how we work, not just what we build: It’s still Day 1 at Metronome. You’ll have a real voice in how we make tough technical decisions and in how we grow as a team—helping us become an even better version of ourselves while building a culture of smart, low-ego, team-first builders.
