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
The Compute organization at Stripe manages the core cloud infrastructure that powers Stripe's products and services. Our teams are responsible for managing Stripe's server fleet, container orchestration, deployments, and change management. As an Engineer working with teams in Compute, you will play a key leadership role in enabling Stripe's infrastructure to power all of our products, globally, safely, and at scale. Your solutions will allow our business to scale and achieve a best in class price/performance ratio.
Core Infrastructure is the team within Compute that ensures changes within Stripe are safe, controllable, observable, and configurable. We own highly scalable platforms that allow teams to define rollout strategies for features, service code, and configuration within Stripe and to enforce and monitor those rollouts. Our tools are used by every engineering and support team at Stripe and we're partnering across the organization to support even more types of changes.
What you'll do
We're looking for a Software Engineer with experience designing, building and maintaining high-scale, distributed systems to work with Stripe. You will work with a team that is in charge of building the core infrastructure used by the product teams to build and operate microservices to support our business. You will have the opportunity to build a great customer experience for internal Stripe teams using this infrastructure and play a key role in enabling Stripe's infrastructure to power all of our products, globally and at scale.
Responsibilities
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
Hybrid work at Stripe
Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.
