About the role
About Orb: Orb is redefining what billing software can be, turning one of the most complex parts of running a business into a strategic driver of growth. We're building the revenue design platform that helps teams automate billing, evolve pricing, and grow revenue with confidence. We work with companies like Vercel, Pinecone, Perplexity, and Replit to help them price smarter, bill accurately, and capture more of the revenue they've earned. Backed by $44.1M in funding from top investors like Mayfield, Menlo Ventures, and Greylock, we're a team that moves fast, holds itself to high standards, and is serious about changing how companies grow. For SF Bay Area and NYC residents, we've built a hybrid work culture where we are in office 3 days/week. For remote roles, we ask you to join us in person 1x per quarter. Our values, customer centricity, minutes matter, run with it, and attention to detail are at the core of everything we do.
