About the Team:
The Consumer Experience team owns the end-to-end journey for millions of fans discovering, buying, and selling tickets on StubHub’s web and mobile platforms. Every search, recommendation, checkout flow, and confirmation page is built by our teams.
We operate at global scale, serving fans across 60+ regions and 30+ languages with fast, localized, and reliable experiences during high-demand moments. This is high-impact engineering with real-time traffic spikes and complex distributed systems challenges.
Our teams are deeply cross-functional, with engineering, product, design, and data working in true partnership and shared ownership. Engineers influence strategy, shape roadmaps, and have direct access to experimentation and insights that guide decisions.
We build across the full stack, choosing tools and technologies that help us move quickly and deliver quality at scale. We are relentless about understanding fans, using data and rapid iteration to raise the bar on every release.
If you are excited to build products used by millions, solve meaningful technical challenges, and define the future of live event commerce, we would love to build with you.
- Build AI-first consumer product experiences
- Invent and ship new ways for fans to discover and buy tickets using AI-powered product thinking and tooling.
- Prototype quickly, validate ideas with data, and iterate into polished experiences that feel simple and delightful.
- Integrate AI into how we build
- Use GenAI tools (e.g., Claude, OpenAI) to accelerate the full development lifecycle: brainstorming and design exploration, code generation, test planning, debugging, documentation, and drafting PRs.
- Apply AI to analysis and iteration—summarizing qualitative feedback, spotting patterns in product behavior, and turning insights into concrete improvements.
- Deliver features at global scale
- Build and evolve high-traffic web and mobile product surfaces used by millions of fans.
- Contribute to systems and APIs that support personalization, localization, experimentation, and reliable performance across regions.
- Learn fast with strong mentorship
- Work closely with experienced engineers who care about clarity, craftsmanship, and setting you up to own features end-to-end.
What We're Looking for:
- Recent graduate or software engineer with up to ~1 year of experience (including internships, co-ops, or substantial academic projects).
- Strong CS fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, and core programming concepts).
- Basic experience building user-facing applications and/or consuming APIs.
- Exposure to LLMs or GenAI tools (coursework, internships, hackathons, or side projects)—bonus if you’ve used frameworks or platforms like Anthropic or ChatGPT in something you built.
Why you’ll love this team:
- Product impact: You’ll ship directly to fans and see your work in the core StubHub experience.
- AI-first culture: We don’t treat AI as a demo—we use it to build better products and to build faster, across ideation, analysis, implementation, and iteration.
- Experimentation mindset: We run tight loops: build → measure → learn → improve.
- Cross-functional collaboration: Engineers partner deeply with product, design, and data to build experiences that are both effective and enjoyable.
What We Offer:
- Accelerated Growth Environment: An environment designed for swift skill and knowledge enhancement, where you have the autonomy to lead experiments and tests on a massive scale.
- Top Tier Compensation Package: Competitive base, equity, and upside that tracks with your impact.
- Flexible Time Off: Enjoy unlimited Flex Time Off, giving you the flexibility to manage your schedule and take time to recharge as needed.
- Comprehensive Benefits Package: Prioritize your well-being with a comprehensive benefits package, featuring 401k, and premium Health, Vision, and Dental Insurance options.
The anticipated gross base pay range is below for this role. Actual compensation will vary depending on factors such as a candidate’s qualifications, skills, experience, and competencies.
