About Stripe

Stripe is a technology company focused on improving the conditions for economic growth and prosperity. We build programmable financial infrastructure, rethinking from first principles how financial services should work, to make it easier and cheaper for any business to start and scale. More than 10 million businesses build on Stripe, spanning the economic frontier—from solo founders to established enterprises—united by a practical focus on growth. The most ambitious companies in the world use Stripe as core infrastructure to grow faster. They process trillions of dollars a year on Stripe, equivalent to around 1.7% of global GDP. While economic growth makes everyone better off, open markets also enable greater variety. When any business can easily serve a global customer base, the quality and diversity of products in the world increase, and craft and creativity are unleashed into the smallest niches. Our own growth is wholly contingent on the success of the businesses building on Stripe. We therefore invest back into our technology at an unusual rate. We make upgrades to our products every single day to deliver compounding gains to our customers. We maintain some of the most reliable APIs on the internet. We build entirely new pieces of financial infrastructure to enable new ideas. And our significant advances in risk and fraud infrastructure over many years are making the internet economy safer and more accessible.

About The Team

Our internship program is structured to provide interns with the opportunity to work on real projects that our customers urgently need. In this role you will be part of the Product Design team, which is made up of several groups that define, create, and deliver all user-facing aspects of Stripe’s product. Product Designers are strategic partners to Engineering and Product Management within their product area. In close collaboration with product teams, they shape user experiences, then translate them into high-quality designs that can be tested, shipped, and refined. Designers are responsible for building elegant, functional products that users love—and want to tell others about.

What You’ll Do

As a Product Design Intern, you will focus on designing and building experiences that will be shipped to our users in production. You will contribute design iterations to ongoing project workstreams, tackling important projects to increase global commerce, and help shape brand new experiences. Our internship program is competitive and the expectations are high.

Key Responsibilities Include

• Work on a product design project with a product team, translating business ideas into real experience.
• Help craft thoughtful experiences that enable startups and large businesses to establish and manage their businesses.
• Apply problem-solving skills and human-centered approaches to address complex and ambiguous business and user problems.
• Develop and refine design solutions by partnering closely with other designers.
• Craft and prototype visually polished experiences to get user feedback.
• Partner closely with engineering to implement a feature/product from design to implementation, and get it in the hands of our users.
• Engage in group design critiques and collaborative design sessions to improve and receive feedback on your work.
• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders, including engineers, product managers, data scientists, and researchers, proactively seeking and incorporating feedback.
• Understand and advocate for our users, participating in the design process from early concepts to final delivery.

Who You Are

• Ambitious builder: You’re energized by building solutions without clear precedent and solving problems with far-reaching consequences. Successful Stripes are deeply curious, and prefer the joy of discovery to the comfort of certainty.
• Rigorous thinker: You appreciate that things worth doing are rarely simple. You enjoy working on problems that have never been tackled before.
• Adaptable problem solver: You adapt quickly and treat obstacles as opportunities. At Stripe we embrace kindness while encouraging Stripes to take measured risks and act boldly, even in the absence of consensus.

Minimum Requirements

* Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a design-related field, such as UX/UI, Interaction Design, Human Interface, Computer Science, HCI, or a related discipline.

• Some experience using computer programs to design, such as Figma/Canva.
• Demonstrated experience designing experiences and user flows.
• Strong understanding of user-centered design principles and best practices.
• Ability to learn unfamiliar systems, form an understanding through independent research, and effectively work with a mentor and teammates.
• Are a self-motivated problem solver committed to personal growth.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• Proven ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate work while applying rigorous critical thinking and professional judgement to review, refine, and validate all outputs.
• Ability to participate in a paid full-time internship between May-August, 2027.

Preferred Qualifications (A bonus, not a requirement)

* Previous project, internship, or work experience in UX/UI design or related fields.

• Experience working with or conducting your own research, presenting results, and acting on those results.
• Experience with AI tools like Cursor, Lovable, V0, or any others.
• Strong knowledge in design craft and visual design.
• Intent to return to the degree program after the completion of the internship/co-op.

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.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $119,600 - $119,600. 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.
