Staff Software Engineer, Alloy Integrations

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

In this role, you'd be joining the Alloy Integrations team. We own how Metronome's customers collect payments and recognize revenue. We build and run the integrations that connect Metronome's usage-based billing platform to the systems businesses depend on to get paid: Stripe invoicing and payments, cloud marketplaces (AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud), ERP systems like NetSuite and QuickBooks, and CRM systems like Salesforce. We also bring Stripe products such as Checkout into Metronome, so customers can move from contract to cash in one place.

What it asks for · 5

• This is a Staff level role, so we typically target 10+ years of professional experience building and operating backend systems in production
• Experience designing and integrating with third-party APIs, including handling failures, retries, and data consistency across systems
• Experience with distributed or event-driven systems, such as message queues, streams, or workflow engines
• Experience owning services in production, including monitoring, on-call, and incident response
• Ability to communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to engineers and to people outside engineering

Also a plus

• Experience with billing, invoicing, payments, tax, or other financial systems where correctness matters
• Experience with AWS serverless and data services such as Lambda, Kinesis, SQS, or Step Functions
• Familiarity with ERP or CRM platforms such as NetSuite, QuickBooks, or Salesforce, or with cloud marketplace billing
• Experience with GraphQL APIs and relational databases such as Postgres
• Experience leading cross-team projects or large migrations

What the job covers

• Design, build, and maintain integrations between Metronome and external billing, payments, marketplace, ERP, and CRM platforms
• Build reliable, event-driven systems for invoice delivery, payment workflows, and status sync, with safe retries, rollbacks, and reconciliation
• Ship features that help customers control how they invoice, collect, and account for revenue, from design through launch
• Improve observability and automated repair across our systems so problems are caught and fixed before customers notice them
• Participate in an on-call rotation and lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and follow-up work for the systems the team owns
• Plan and carry out migrations and changes to existing integrations without disrupting customer billing
• Partner with product, support, solutions architecture, and other engineering teams to scope work and represent customer needs
