Join Intercom as a Senior Engineering Manager to lead Team Billing — the group that owns the core systems powering how customers buy Intercom, how we meter usage, bill accurately, recognize revenue, and keep money flowing. This is a high‑impact, high‑visibility role at the heart of Growth Engineering, partnering closely with Pricing & Packaging, Order, Self‑Serve, Sales, Finance, Enterprise Systems, Analytics, and Billing Operations. You’ll drive clarity, focus, and execution across a mission‑critical platform while fostering a culture of ownership, accountability, and incredibly high standards.
Job Responsibility:
Lead and scale a team building and enhancing Intercom’s billing, subscription, invoicing, and metering capabilities — the backbone of revenue and monetization experiences
Own and improve the reliability and operational excellence of Billing systems: on‑call quality, incident response, observability, and product health standards
Partner with Senior and Staff Engineers to shape and execute the technical strategy across subscription management, metering, invoicing, and integrations (e.g., Stripe Billing) — balancing near‑term needs with long‑term platform evolution
Collaborate deeply with Product, Design, Sales, Finance, Enterprise Systems, Analytics, and Billing Ops to prioritize the roadmap, close operational gaps, and deliver measurable business outcomes each quarter
Cultivate and manage trusted relationships with partner leaders in Finance, Enterprise Systems, and Analytics to ensure alignment on data flows, compliance, reconciliation, and business reporting needs
Drive migrations and modernization work where needed (e.g., Stripe‑first capabilities, systems parity and improvements), ensuring safe change management and robust downstream data flows
Bring clarity and alignment to priorities, tradeoffs, and timelines
set a high bar for planning, testing, and end‑to‑end quality, especially for revenue‑impacting launches
Develop and retain top talent through coaching, clear expectations, and effective delegation
scale yourself via strong tech‑lead partnerships and “coach‑and‑delegate” leadership
Promote a culture of ownership, accountability, and incredibly high standards — moving quickly, communicating crisply, and celebrating wins
Requirements:
5+ years managing software engineering teams building and shipping customer‑facing or revenue‑impacting systems (e.g., billing, payments, pricing, subscriptions)
Strong technical leadership: comfortable diving into architecture, debugging complex systems, reviewing designs, and making pragmatic tradeoffs to ship safely and fast
Proven ability to lead a cross‑functional, full‑stack team through planning and delivery with clear ownership of business outcomes and product health metrics
Excellent product sense and customer empathy — you translate ambiguous requirements into clear scopes, milestones, and measurable impact
Skilled communicator who drives alignment across partner teams (Sales, Finance, Enterprise Systems, Analytics, Product, Design) and keeps stakeholders informed and unblocked
Track record of cultivating and managing senior relationships across Finance, Enterprise Systems, and Analytics to land durable solutions and accurate downstream reporting
Relentless about outcomes — you identify the highest‑leverage problems, remove roadblocks, and hold the bar on quality without slipping schedules
AI‑first mindset with a high bar for excellence: fluent in using AI tools to accelerate planning, execution, quality, and communication — and to inspire adoption across the team
Nice to have:
Experience with Stripe Billing or similar billing/subscription platforms
familiarity with usage metering and invoicing pipelines
Background in customer‑facing SaaS and/or scale‑up environments operating at high velocity
Experience leading operational excellence initiatives (on‑call, incidents, observability) for revenue‑critical systems
