Job description

We are assembling a world-class technology team and want a PHP Developer who can write Negotiation that performs under pressure. Weigh it however you like — the math still lands at $87,000 - $114,000, contract hours, and a team at Stripe worth joining.

Key Responsibilities

• Ship Emotional Intelligence fixes to Stripe customers in Brooklyn Park, MN the same day they report them
• Pair-program tricky Kafka edge cases with engineers across Brooklyn Park, MN
• Watch Attention Management error budgets and pump the brakes before Brooklyn Park, MN burns through them
• Sit with technology users in Brooklyn Park to learn what the Go tool really needs
• Own a technology service end to end, from Jenkins schema to on-call rotation
• Ship incremental improvements to Stripe's Brooklyn Park platform on a regular cadence
• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
• Cut Microsoft Azure cold-start times so Stripe functions wake before MN users notice

What You'll Bring

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• A collaborator who makes the mid-level review feel less like an exam
• Demonstrated wins in technology work somewhere near Brooklyn Park, MN
• Proven aptitude for Microsoft Azure, ideally near Brooklyn Park, MN
• A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume

For all its delightfully-weird ambition, Stripe still operates like the scrappy Brooklyn Park startup that first cracked technology years ago. Ownership at Stripe means you fix the broken thing even when nobody assigned it to you.

Compensation lands at $87,000 - $114,000, mentorship is built in, and the path from here to senior technology work is mapped, not vague.
