We have Software Engineers in almost every team across Stripe, and in this role, you’ll be making some of the most significant decisions for the company. You’ll get to work with other engineers to build delightful features that span various parts of the system, as well as our business, sales and operations teams to understand and solve our users’ pain points.

• Work with a wide range of systems, processes and technologies to own and solve problems end-to-end

Who you are

You are energized by solving real problems for real users. You use the word “users” or “customers” a million times a day. You thrive at the intersection of technology and business - equally comfortable diving deep into technical architecture and sitting with customers to understand their challenges. You like to work in the trenches with your colleagues. You're passionate about building elegant, scalable solutions and helping others reach their full potential. You believe great products are built by teams that deeply understand their users, and you're excited to work closely with regional teams, product partners, and strategic customers.

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.

• 3-12+ years of professional software development experience
  
• Either a Bachelor’s degree in a technical field involving coding (e.g., Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics) or equivalent technical experience
  
• Worked on projects which have involved multiple engineering teams
  
• Empathy, strong communication skills and a deep respect for the power of collaboration
  
• A learning mindset, regardless of level or experience
  
• The ability to drive clear next steps when encountering ambiguous spaces without clear lines of ownership
  
• High standards for code quality and a constructive attitude to help others raise the bar
  
• An ability to think creatively and holistically about reducing risk in a complex environment
  

Preferred qualifications

• Have experience with financial product companies and interest in financial products and markets.
  
• User facing or cross functional roles where you shaped the product’s roadmap and solutions to solve user needs.
  

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users.

For example, Stripes in our Bucharest, Romania site have an 80% in-office expectation, and those in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico and Bengaluru, India work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.

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 specific location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the primary location may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Specific benefits and details about what compensation is included in the salary range listed above will vary depending on the applicant’s location and can be discussed in more detail during the interview process. Benefits/additional compensation for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; retirement plans; health benefits; and wellness stipends.
