Job Title: Staff Software Engineer, Revenue Platform

Role Overview
Join a rapidly scaling, venture-backed AI-powered commerce platform that is redefining how transactions happen in the physical world. This organization is building next-generation infrastructure that powers seamless, real-world payments and monetization at scale.

As a Staff Software Engineer on the Revenue Platform team, you will own the technical direction of billing, payments, and invoicing systems that process tens of millions in monthly transactions. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where your work directly shapes monetization strategy, financial accuracy, and expansion into new verticals.

You’ll operate at the intersection of engineering, finance, and operations, balancing near-term execution with long-term architectural excellence. If you enjoy designing resilient distributed systems where correctness truly matters, this is a foundational role with real business impact.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own the architecture and evolution of billing, payments, and invoicing infrastructure
• Establish standards for financial accuracy, transaction integrity, and compliance
• Design resilient multi-gateway payment processing with intelligent routing, retry logic, and graceful failure handling
• Build monitoring and reporting tools for revenue operations including reconciliation dashboards, payment success metrics, and audit trails
• Partner cross-functionally with finance and operations to automate dispute resolution, refund workflows, and reconciliation processes
• Drive best practices for idempotent payment processing, distributed transaction handling, audit logging, and financial system testing
• Own integrations with payment gateways, ERP systems, accounting platforms, and analytics tools
• Influence system-wide reliability standards and mentor teams on revenue systems engineering patterns

Education & Qualifications:

• 8+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
• Deep experience building revenue systems such as payment platforms, billing systems, or invoicing infrastructure
• Strong systems thinking with expertise in distributed financial systems and handling edge cases such as duplicate requests, partial failures, currency conversion, tax logic, and timing issues
• Advanced database knowledge including transaction isolation, audit logging, financial data migrations, and high-availability systems requiring absolute correctness
• Production experience integrating with payment gateways such as Stripe, PayPal, or similar processors
• Experience navigating compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS
• Strong cross-functional communication skills, especially with finance, accounting, and data teams
• Experience leveraging AI-assisted development tools in real-world production environments

  • Expert-level experience with billing platforms, reconciliation systems, and revenue recognition workflows
  • Deep knowledge of audit controls and financial reporting systems at scale
  • Strong Java expertise with understanding of JVM performance and concurrency
  • Scala experience
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS) and modern observability tooling
  • Familiarity with AI-powered coding tools such as Copilot or similar agentic development tools

Why Us:

• High ownership, high visibility role impacting core monetization systems
• Opportunity to architect financial systems at meaningful transaction scale
• Work alongside world-class engineers solving complex distributed systems problems
