About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About Connect

While accepting payments on the internet has become easier over the past several years, due in large part to the advent of modern payments APIs, the internet infrastructure for routing these same payments—to suppliers, sellers, partners, service providers, and recipients—remains outdated.

Connect is Stripe’s leading product for marketplaces, on‑demand services, ecommerce site builders, invoicing platforms, professional SaaS products, fundraising platforms, rental management platforms, and more. By using Connect, users in each of these categories can link multiple parties to exchange goods or services. These users rely on Connect for the crucial function of routing payments reliably between these parties.

By powering fast, flexible, compliant, and cost‑efficient payment routing on the internet, Connect not only spurs the creation of innovative business models but also enables organizations—whether businesses, nonprofits, or government agencies—to bring previously offline payments online.

Why this role

This is a chance to define a foundational product area at Stripe. You will turn a fast‑changing set of user and product needs into durable platform primitives that work across products, industries, and geographies.

The role combines high‑lever​age strategy with hands‑on product execution. You will work through ambiguous, consequential questions like: what should a platform be able to model? What should be simple by default but flexible when needed? How can Stripe make complex financial infrastructure feel effortless for a platform and its users?

The outcome of your work will compound. The abstractions you help create will be reused across Connect and Stripe, shaping what new products platforms can build and how quickly they can bring them to market.

What you’ll do

As a Product Manager on Stripe’s Connect team, you will shape the strategy and oversee the execution of high‑impact initiatives serving modern marketplaces and software platforms.

Product development at Stripe is highly collaborative. You will work closely with engineering, design, analytics, marketing, sales, and customer‑facing teams. You will also engage directly with customers and present your plans to Stripe’s leadership team.

Responsibilities

• Develop and advance a compelling product vision for Connect
• Devise the strategy for high‑impact initiatives serving modern marketplaces and software platforms
• Translate product strategy and customer needs into clear product requirements
• Oversee execution across the teams involved in delivering these initiatives
• Collaborate with engineering, design, analytics, marketing, sales, and customer‑facing teams
• Meet with customers to understand their needs and gather feedback
• Present product plans to Stripe’s leadership team and incorporate feedback

Who you are

We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum Requirements

• More than three years of product management experience
• A computer science background or equivalent experience
• Strong product judgment
• The ability to lead products that require coordination across multiple teams
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Persistence and resourcefulness in driving successful outcomes for products and teams

Hybrid work at Stripe

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

In‑office expectations

Office‑assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in‑person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

Working remotely at Stripe

A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on‑sites, meet‑ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $214,300 - $321,500. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings (“OTE”) range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.

We look forward to hearing from you.

At Stripe, we’re looking for people with passion, grit, and integrity. You’re encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn’t precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out—and set you apart—especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns. At Stripe, we welcome diverse perspectives and people who think rigorously and aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions. Join us.

The application window will remain open for 100 days after the Job Post is published. However, this opportunity will remain open based on the needs of the business, which may cause the application window to close before or after the 100‑day mark.
