Design and develop technologies for StubHub's Supply Platform, focusing on user needs, mentoring team members, and managing technical projects effectively.
StubHub is on a mission to redefine the live event experience on a global scale. Whether someone is looking to attend their first event or their hundredth, we’re here to delight them all the way from the moment they start looking for a ticket until they step through the gate. The same goes for our sellers. From fans selling a single ticket to the promoters of a worldwide stadium tour, we want StubHub to be the safest, most convenient way to offer a ticket to the millions of fans who browse our platform around the world.
StubHub is seeking Staff Software Engineers to design and develop next-generation technologies and complex features that transform the way millions of users explore, interact with, and participate in live events worldwide. As a Staff Engineer, you will be an integral part of developing the team's commercial and product strategy.

Our Staff Engineers are essential to our company’s success, so they must demonstrate initiative and enthusiasm in solving the problems they encounter. StubHub is committed to being a phenomenal and inclusive workplace. We expect you to also serve as an advocate and mentor for your team members, demonstrating leadership qualities and setting an example for those around you.
