San Francisco, California, United States Discord Full time

Come build the future of Discord's business with us We are looking for an impact-focused Staff Engineer to join our world-class Revenue group as we accelerate Discord's growth through the creation of compelling paid products and new business lines. These products allow us to grow our business while keeping Discord's core functionality free. To learn more about Discord Engineering, take a look at our engineering blog

What You'll Be Doing

  • Act as a technical leader and domain expert on building and maintaining systems and integrations that underpin Discord's existing business lines, and enable new revenue streams across Android, iOS, and Web
  • Be a strategic partner with engineering, product, and cross functional leadership to advise and chart out pathways to scaling revenue operations and business lines
  • Help navigate technical, legal, and regulatory compliance requirements as we launch and grow new business lines such as Apps/Activities IAP, Quests, and (potentially) virtual currencies
  • Collaborate with business development to forge strategic partnerships
  • Partner with Finance, Product, Design, CX, Data Science, and feature teams across the company to evolve Discord's payments and payouts platforms
  • Improve reliability, observability, and stability of Discord's billing system

You Will Thrive In This Role If

  • Deep domain expertise in the world of online payments, mobile app stores, payouts, taxes, and revenue accounting operations, as well as SOX compliance, audits, and other regulatory requirements
  • Experience with revenue accounting workflows such as ERP integrations, revenue reconciliation, financial reporting, and supporting technologies like Looker and Fivetran
  • Backend and data experience. We work across multiple stacks for web, desktop, and mobile, but this role will primarily be backend focused. You should have deep experience with platforms, tools and frameworks similar to Python Flask, Pubsub, Google Cloud Platform, Postgres, BigQuery, analytics tools such as Looker and Mode, observability tools like Datadog, and internal tooling such as Retool or homegrown tooling.
  • A growth mindset. You view mistakes as learning opportunities and build upon your successes. You challenge yourself and those around you to continuously improve
  • A focus on impact. You have a sharp eye for what changes can bring a product from good to great. You collaborate closely with product managers, designers, analysts, and other engineers to define great solutions to business problems
  • A sense of ownership. You believe in solving a problem completely rather than simply shipping a solution. You operate autonomously and follow through on your commitments
  • A love of mentorship of fellow engineers, providing feedback and guidance on system architecture, API design, data modeling, and tradeoffs
  • 6+ years of experience, 3+ in relevant roles
