About this 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.

About the role:

Implementation Architects on Orb's wider Customer Success team are the technical partners our customers rely on after they sign. You'll own the technical post-sales journey - from initial implementation through go-live and beyond - ensuring customers successfully architect their billing integration and get value from Orb as quickly as possible.

You'll work directly with customers to understand their pricing models, map their business logic to Orb's platform, and guide them through complex implementation decisions. When you spot friction that's slowing customers down, you'll partner with the engineering side of our broader product/engineering team to advocate for improvements that solve problems at scale.

This role is ideal for someone who loves going deep on customer problems, can navigate technical complexity without needing to write production code, and wants to directly shape how customers experience Orb.

In this role, you will:

Lead implementation kickoffs and technical discovery to understand customer pricing models, data architecture, and integration requirements

Design and recommend approaches that map complex business logic—usage-based pricing, hybrid models, credits, commitments—to Orb's capabilities

Guide customers through API design decisions, event ingestion patterns, webhook configuration, and invoice customization

Troubleshoot implementation challenges and unblock customers when they get stuck

Serve as the ongoing technical point of contact for strategic accounts

Partner with Customer Success to ensure smooth handoffs and long-term customer health

Build trusted relationships with customer engineering, finance, and product teams

Identify patterns where multiple customers hit the same friction points and advocate for product improvements

Contribute to documentation, best practices, and reference architectures that accelerate future implementations

About you:

4+ years in a technical post-sales role: solutions engineering, implementation consulting, technical account management, customer engineering, or similar

Strong understanding of APIs, webhooks, and system integration concepts—you can read API docs, debug integration issues, and explain technical tradeoffs to customers

Comfortable with SQL and navigating complex data relationships

Track record of owning customer relationships through implementation and onboarding

Proven ability to translate between business requirements and technical architecture

You don't need to write production code, but you're fluent in technical conversations with engineering teams

You love being the trusted advisor—customers call you when they're stuck because they know you'll figure it out

You see problems through to resolution and take accountability for customer outcomes, not just deliverables

You dig into the "why" behind customer requests and don't stop at surface-level answers

You move fast and figure things out—our team motto is "you can just do things"

You spot patterns across engagements and push for solutions that scale
