Software Engineer, Revenue

Tabs is the leading AI-native revenue platform for modern finance and accounting teams. Tabs agents automate the entire contract-to-cash lifecycle, including billing, collections, revenue recognition, and reporting, to help teams eliminate manual work and accelerate cash flow. High-growth companies like Cursor and Statsig rely on Tabs to generate invoices directly from contracts, reconcile payments in real time, and automate ASC 606 compliance. Founded in 2023, Tabs has raised over $91 million from Lightspeed Venture Partners https://lsvp.com, General Catalyst https://www.generalcatalyst.com, and Primary https://www.primary.vc. The team is headquartered in New York and brings deep expertise in finance and AI. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS Revenue recognition is perhaps one of the hardest domains in software. It’s full of gnarly edge cases, temporal complexity and legacy decisions that can’t be undone. The Tabs Revenue team builds the systems that turn contracts and usage into revenue reporting that users can trust- ARR, GAAP-compliant rev rec, deferred and unbilled balances, journal entries- all enforced by mathematical invariants. Down to the penny, across time, under audit. Nailing rev rec is existential to the success of Tabs. We’re hiring an engineer who wants to own real systems, not just shuffle tickets across the finish line. Someone who enjoys untangling ambiguity, respects the domain of accounting and is energized by complexity. WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY WORK ON Here are examples of real projects engineers on the Revenue team have owned recently: - Revenue recognition architecture: Built a system where invoice amounts, recognized revenue and accounting entries stay in sync through service-level constraints - Historical revenue import: Built CSV upload pipeline that validates, transforms and inserts pre-platform data, then combines it with current data in reports - Month-end close workflow: Built a new experience that validates invoices, reconciles payments, calculates revenue movement and generates journal entries ready for ERP sync - Optimized revenue reporting: Built queries that combine historical imports with current data, support multi-currency, and render annual reports in record time for our most data-heavy customers - Credit memos: Built a credit memo system that works across multiple ERPs, including robust rollback logic and error surfacing You’ll work across backend services, data models, APIs and frontend services. You’ll partner closely with Product and Design- quick deskside sessions abound at Tabs! You’re expected to bring opinions to the meetings you join, not just take notes. WHAT WE CARE ABOUT You’ll thrive at Tabs if you: - Enjoy owning systems end-to-end, from first design doc to fixing production edge cases weeks later - Care deeply about correctness and long-term maintainability - Are curious about domains you don’t already understand, and are willing to sit with discomfort while you learn - Can disagree respectfully, explain your reasoning and change your mind when the data says you should We’re optimizing for excellent engineers who are good teammates. WHAT WE DON’T CARE ABOUT AS MUCH - Exact years of experience - Whether you’re “frontend” or “backend” by title - Whether you’ve worked in fintech before - Whether you know what Deferred Revenue is If you’ve built scalable systems, shipped real software and learned from breaking prod a time or two, we want to talk. TABS ENGINEERING CULTURE Our core values show up in how we work: - Respect the Domain We don’t shy away from accounting complexity. We dig into the details to build features the right way - even if that means combing through PWC’s revenue recognition guidance on a weekend. - Stay Customer-Centric If accounting teams can’t trust the numbers we produce, nothing else matters. Engineers join customer calls when it’s useful and stay in close touch with Support and Success to understand what customers actually need. We put wireframes in front of real users,
