Job Description

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 a Senior Software Engineer to join our Web Foundations team within Consumer App Foundations (CAF).

As a Senior Software Engineer on Web Foundations, you will play a key role in shaping the technical direction of our consumer web ecosystem. You will drive architectural improvements, elevate engineering standards, and build scalable fullstack systems that accelerate innovation across the organization.

This is a high-impact role for engineers who think in systems, care deeply about craftsmanship, and want to influence how a global marketplace is built.
