About the role

As part of Adyen, we're taking Orb toward a massive revenue line, with Adyen's global sales org behind our distribution.
Billing is unforgiving: every number has to be right, in real time, at volume.
We're looking for a leader who's energized by the monetization and billing domain.

Coach and grow our engineering managers and senior ICs via hands-on mentorship, clear growth paths, and real career development for the people building Orb.
Build our engineering leadership bench and own talent and retention strategy as the team grows and expands to multiple offices.
Set and clearly articulate technical strategy by holding your own in deep technical conversations, and raising the bar on how we design systems for correctness and scale.
Partner cross-functionally with GTM and our VP of Product to shape product, competitive, and monetization strategy.
A strong cross-functional partner who works naturally with product and go-to-market to turn technical strategy into business results.
Bias toward lightweight, high-leverage processes; you'll build foundations that scale without bureaucracy.
We work with each other day in and day out, and strongly believe that building a diverse and inclusive team is key to our long-term goals and success as a company.

10+ years in engineering with several years leading engineering organizations, ideally at infrastructure, platform, or developer-tools companies.
Infra- or platform-heavy technical background, with real depth in distributed systems, data, and designing for correctness and scale.
You've scaled teams and systems through meaningful growth and you're excited to re-calibrate into scrappy, early-stage mode rather than run a heavy process.
Genuinely leaned into billing and monetization.
Usage-based pricing and revenue infrastructure is a domain you find interesting and want to go deep on - this is central to the role.
A proven people leader who has coached managers, developed senior ICs, and built durable leadership benches, ideally across multiple offices.
Bias toward lightweight, high-leverage processes
Some domestic and international travel required.

We provide equal employment opportunities to all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by law.
