About the team
Connect enables the world’s leading platforms and marketplaces like Shopify, DoorDash, and Instacart to incorporate payments into their products. Connect has been at the forefront of Stripe’s growth due to the power of its offering, which enables our users to distribute Stripe’s payment processing directly to their sellers and merchants.
Account Abstractions builds infrastructure for the world’s leading platforms and marketplaces to incorporate payments into their products. Connect has been at the forefront of Stripe’s growth due to the power of its offering, which enables our users to distribute Stripe’s payment processing directly to their sellers and merchants.
The Account Abstractions team is focused on making it fast and easy for our users to build powerful and flexible integrations. We are building next generation APIs and UIs that give flexibility to our users in terms of their user representations.
What you’ll do
Backend Engineers on the team will design and build end-to-end features fundamental to the onboarding and management experience of every Connect user, including Stripe’s largest Connect users with complex integrations. We are seeking engineers who are excited to develop features for these foundations as well as their higher-level dashboard surfaces, delivering best-in-class product experiences for our users.
Responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain high-performance APIs, services, and systems across Stripe’s engineering teams
Solve problems end-to-end across a variety of systems and services, in close collaboration with other engineers on your team
Collaborate with cross-functional partner teams to deliver delightful developer experiences and comprehensive interfaces with core account and money movement primitives
Debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
Work with engineers across the company to build new features at large-scale
Improve engineering standards, tooling, and processes
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
Strong technical background, including 2+ years of experience as a backend engineer, with an affinity for building scalable backend infrastructure.
Experience delivering, extending, and maintaining large scale distributed systems.
The skills to build holistically – from specs and documentation to implementation, testing, deployment, and measuring impact
Ability to work well cross-functionally and earn trust from colleagues at all levels
Think about systems and services and write high quality code. We work mostly in Ruby, with some Scala and Go. However, languages can be learned: we care much more about your general engineering skill than knowledge of a particular language or framework.
You hold yourself and others to a high bar when working with production systems
Take pride in working on projects to successful completion involving a wide variety of technologies and systems.
Thrive in a collaborative environment involving different stakeholders and subject matter experts
Enjoy working with a diverse group of people with different expertise (for example, ¼ of Stripes work in a country that’s different from the one they grew up in).
Almost every role at Stripe collaborates with some engineers, from Sales and Support in sharing feedback from our customers; to Legal and Accounting in supporting our systems for tracking money movement and reporting around the world.
Preferred qualifications
Propensity to ask questions, assume good intentions, and defaulting to transparency
You hold yourself and others to a high bar when working with production systems
You think of yourself as entrepreneurial and enjoy moving quickly on new, green-field products.
