In this position, your responsibility will be to design and operate the billing platform end to end, build metering and usage-aggregation pipelines, design and operate prepaid credit/wallet systems with auto top-up and balance management, support enterprise/contract billing with custom pricing, and lead the migration to the next generation of our billing system with no revenue loss or downtime. Define observability and quality metrics for billing correctness, freshness, and throughput; ensure billing systems meet audit and compliance requirements (SOX). What we’re looking for: 6+ years building production backend systems, 3+ years building and operating billing or metering systems; experience with usage-based metered billing, subscription billing, prepaid credits, enterprise billing; expertise in Python and TypeScript/Node; Postgres; data pipelines with Kafka or Kinesis to Snowflake/BigQuery; PLG billing; Auth0/Okta; SOX compliance. Nice to have: migration experience, hybrid billing, Stripe/Metronome/Orb integration; developer-facing API billing. Why Tavily? etc. #J-18808-Ljbffr Nebius B.V.
