Your Role And Responsibilities

The TEAR team's Billing POD owns the systems that turn Confluent Cloud usage into accurate, reliable billing — metering and usage aggregation, rating/pricing, invoicing, and integrations with payment/ERP systems. Billing is mission-critical: correctness, auditability, and scale are non-negotiable, and our work directly impacts revenue and customer trust.

This is a full-stack role, but it leans frontend-heavy — you'll spend the majority of your time building the billing, usage, and invoicing experiences our customers and internal teams rely on, while still understanding and contributing meaningfully to the backend services behind them. Our stack includes a React, Redux, and TypeScript frontend, with backend technologies such as Go or Java on Kubernetes, running on AWS/GCP/Azure.

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and operate features across the Billing domain, with a primary focus on the frontend.
• Contribute to the backend services behind those experiences.
• Independently deliver features end to end with high quality.
• Develop reliable, performant systems with a high bar for data correctness.
• Contribute to one-pagers, design reviews, and KIPs for your product area.
• Strengthen the POD's operational excellence.
