About Sequence
Backed by a16z and Salesforce Ventures Sequence is reinventing the accounts receivable category building a flexible toolkit to help B2B finance teams to scale their revenue collection infrastructure.
The team behind Sequence has decades of experience building and operating category-defining marketplace machine learning fintech and enterprise software companies. We are no ordinary start-up; the maturity of our leadership and technology means we are operating at a lightning fast pace. This is a fantastic opportunity to be a part of the next wave of innovation for the CFO office doing your best work with talented ambitious and creative teammates.
Sequence is the ultimate billing and revenue stack for B2B companies. We help our customers design and iterate on their pricing and revenue flows so they can stay completely focused on their mission without worrying about billing.
At the end of your career we want you to look back at your time with Sequence and say it was the best job you ever had.
The role
Were looking for senior product engineers with strong backend skills to help us build financial tools for modern fast scaling technology companies.
What youll do:
Create a world class product experience. Youll help make the experience of implementing and working with the Sequence product second to none. We believe our billing engine is the most flexible and comprehensive out there however complex financial processes can be challenging to model and expose in an approachable and intuitive way. Youll help us figure out the best ways to go about this building a backend for our own product alongside a first-class API experience for our customers.
Guide product direction: We believe that all engineering decisions are product decisions and vice versa. Youll collaborate with data product and design to choose what we work on and why and help build Sequence to be the best product and business it can be
Shape our backend architecture. Youll work on some of our most complex technical problems and help others do the same. Youll help choose how we build things and what we prioritise as a product and engineering team.
Help our small team have outsized impact. We want to build an early engineering culture that values collaboration learning and teamwork. Youll play an integral role in shaping our product culture and ways of working to help us achieve this.
This is a great fit if you...
Enjoy being hands-on with a focus on writing code and shipping things. We have a long list of things we want to build.

Want to work on something new. The biggest product and company decisions still lie ahead of us.
Enjoy the uncertainty and unpredictability that comes with an early stage company.

Enjoy larger organisation structures and only staying within your area of expertise. Were a small team early on the journey and things change quickly as we learn more
Want a traditional engineering team set up with a predictable roadmap clearly scoped out tickets provided for you and so on
Prefer a slower pace. Were tackling real problems for our customers today so we need to move quickly.
Want all of the benefits that come with an larger established tech company
