Billions of dollars are processed by Stripe each year and the Credit Operations team works to ensure that exposure is minimised while facilitating company growth.

We are looking for someone passionate about commercial credit, the payments ecosystem, and has a strong desire to work collaboratively with peers and partners in the credit space while building and enhancing Stripe’s collections processes at scale. This person will work alongside a global team of analysts and build cross functional partnerships with engineering, strategy, sales, vendor management and more.

Minimum Requirements

• 4+ years of relevant experience in commercial credit collections and managing workouts with a solid understanding of general commercial credit principals.


• 1 or more years of experience leading risk related projects or initiatives working closely with cross-functional stakeholders.


• Experience using data to propose creative solutions to both tactical and strategic problems

In-office expectations

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. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland 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.
