Who we are

About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

Stripe will succeed at our mission of increasing the GDP of the internet only if we preserve Stripe users’ trust. To achieve their trust, we must ensure authorization is done properly across all services and systems at Stripe, so that Stripe users have confidence that their most valuable assets, their data, can only be accessed by the authorized users or services. 

What you’ll do

We’re looking for an experienced engineer who is excited to address tough problems in the authorization space. This role is critical, not only for Stripe, but for the future of the commercial internet.

Responsibilities

  • Build reliable, performant and scalable authorization infrastructure

  • Build comprehensive, easy-to-use, and policy driven authorization solutions for Stripe teams to meet their authorization needs

  • Build access visibility and continuous policy governance to empower resource owners, legal and compliance to put risk of inappropriate access under control

  • Turn open-ended problems into effective solutions

  • Scope and lead large technical projects with enormous impact across multiple teams at Stripe

  • Uplevel our high engineering standards and bring consistency to the many codebases and processes you will encounter

  • Mentor and coach others engineers

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

  • Has a strong technical background, including 5+ years of experience with software engineering and systems design

  • Has a learning mindset, regardless of level or experience

  • Has empathy, strong communication skills and a deep respect for the power of collaboration

  • Works well cross-functionally and cross-team; and your co-workers at all levels trust you

  • Drives clear next steps when encountering ambiguous spaces without clear lines of ownership

  • Thinks creatively and holistically when solving problems

  • Prefers simple solutions and designs over complex ones, and have a good intuition for what is lasting and scalable.

  • High standards for code quality and a constructive attitude to help others raise the bar
