Orbit is built by developer advocates who understand the power of community. Our community experience platform helps companies identify, measure, and improve their community members’ engagement, all while focusing on creating value instead of merely capturing it. We want to help our users deliver a stellar member experience, quantify their business impact, and become the next generation of community leadership. As a member of our team, you’ll help architect our overall technology direction while tackling the challenges of our product and engineering roadmap. If advocating for community as a business practice is something you’re passionate about, we’d be thrilled for you to join us.
