Full Job Description
About the Role

Billing is one of the most consequential systems at Suno - it's where every product decision about value becomes real. We're looking for a detail-obsessed engineer to be our first dedicated billing hire and own this domain end-to-end. You'll set the technical direction, be a key voice in how we think about the future of our revenue model, and build infrastructure that has to be exactly right at scale.

What You'll Do
  • Own Suno's billing systems across web and mobile, including our Stripe and RevenueCat integrations, subscription lifecycle, and usage metering.
  • Lead the evolution of our billing architecture - including an in-progress migration to a modern ledger-based model - making it more maintainable and easier to reason about as the business grows.
  • Participate in product and strategy discussions about how Suno monetizes, bringing technical judgment to decisions that have direct revenue impact.
  • Build tools and systems that give the broader team more leverage.


What You'll Need
  • 5+ years of backend engineering experience, ideally building systems where being wrong has immediate real-world consequences - payments, financial infrastructure, distributed systems, or similar.
  • A natural instinct to think about failure modes first: what happens if this event arrives twice, out of order, or not at all?
  • Strong product sense alongside technical depth - you care about what users experience, not just what the code does.
  • A high bar for correctness that you hold yourself and others to without being told.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
  • Experience with Stripe is a plus.
  • A love for music is a huge plus.


Additional Notes: Applicants must be eligible to work in the US.

Location: This is an onsite role in our NYC or Cambridge, MA office.

Compensation

The annual salary range for this role is $220K - $280K + target equity + benefits (including medical, dental, vision, and 401k)

Perks & Benefits for Full-Time Employees

  • Medical, Dental, & Vision Insurance (PPO w/ HSA & FSA options)
  • 11 Paid Holidays + Unlimited PTO & Sick Time
