About the role:
The Senior Software Engineer will be a core member of the Billing Platform Team, designing and implementing the microservices and integrations that power Kong's commercial infrastructure. You'll build scalable, reliable TypeScript services that handle the full customer billing lifecycle, from trial signup through enterprise subscription provisioning and consumption metering. This role requires deep experience with distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and third-party financial platform integrations, combined with strong ownership instincts and the ability to operate in a domain where correctness is not optional.
What you'll do:
Design, develop, and maintain TypeScript microservices that power billing lifecycle management across self-serve and enterprise plan models.
Build and evolve integrations with payment processing, usage metering, and CRM platforms to support contract and entitlement synchronization.
Implement reliable event-driven workflows using Kafka or similar platforms to process contract events, provision entitlements, and trigger billing state transitions.
Design and maintain the entitlement enforcement layer that gates product access based on plan type and contract state across Kong's multi-tenant platform.
Own the provisioning pipeline that maps closed sales opportunities to live org configurations, reducing manual intervention and human error.
Collaborate with product managers, RevOps, and finance stakeholders to translate billing requirements into reliable, auditable system behavior.
Build and improve internal tooling for billing operations, including admin interfaces used by customer support and finance teams.
Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code with comprehensive unit, integration, and end-to-end tests across a high-stakes financial domain.
Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and architecture planning with a focus on correctness, idempotency, and operational resilience.
Participate in on-call rotation and own incident response for billing platform services.
