What You'll Do
- Own the technical vision and long-term architecture of Scribe's monetization platform: billing, pricing infrastructure, entitlements, provisioning, packaging, and customer/org hierarchy
- Set the technical standard for the billing engineering team define engineering norms, lead high-stakes design decisions, and raise the level of junior engineers through review and mentorship
- Drive the design of systems that allow Scribe to launch new pricing models, tiers, and products without re-architecting from scratch
- Own the entitlements and access control layer — the boundary between billing state and product access
- Define and maintain the infrastructure Finance and Revenue Operations rely on: reconciliation pipelines, audit trails, reporting, and close processes
- Partner with Growth leads to keep monetization and growth systems coherent as they scale
- Collaborate with the Controller, Revenue Operations, Sales, and Product leadership to translate business requirements into durable system design
- Identify and eliminate architectural gaps that create financial risk, operational complexity, or product constraints
- Shape the technical direction for how self-serve subscriptions, enterprise invoicing, and sales-assisted purchasing coexist at scale
- Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and engineering culture on the monetization team
You Could Be a Great Fit If
- 10+ years of software engineering experience, with deep time in monetization, billing, or revenue-critical systems
- Owned the technical strategy for a monetization platform not just executed on one someone else designed
- Worked on systems where "incorrect" has a dollar sign attached revenue pipelines, financial reporting, or billing infrastructure in production
- Can reason across the full monetization stack: pricing models, subscription lifecycle, entitlements, provisioning, and financial reporting
- Design for evolution pricing will change, products will expand, and your architecture can absorb that without a rewrite
- As effective in a room with Finance and Revenue Operations as you are in a code review
- Hold strong opinions on correctness, idempotency, and durability and have navigated real tradeoffs between those properties and latency or product flexibility under business pressure
- Lead through taste and rigor, where engineers around you get better as a natural consequence of working with you
- Strong backend engineering fundamentals, Python and Django experience is a plus
Bonus
- Experience designing entitlements or access control systems at scale
- Experience with SaaS financial close processes, revenue recognition, or enterprise invoicing
- Experience with multi-product or multi-tier pricing architecture
- Exposure to revenue operations tooling (Salesforce CPQ, Rillet, or similar)
- Prior experience as a technical anchor in a high-growth SaaS environment
