Forward Deployed Engineer at Stripe building scalable integrations and standalone applications for strategic users. Role involves designing production systems, collaborating with internal teams and customers, and establishing best practices for Stripe's new consulting engineering arm.
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.
Stripe’s Professional Services team works with our most strategic users, delivering excellence and enabling our users to succeed with Stripe. The new Forward Deployed Engineering team takes the evolution of our consulting services behind the keyboard by directly building and delivering software for our users. As a brand new offering from Stripe, we work directly with Stripe's users to build scalable Stripe integrations and standalone applications.
In this role, you will work closely with Stripe’s Product & Engineering team to help shape the features that extend beyond what’s possible out of the box with Stripe integrations. You may be building standalone applications that are deployed in user environments, developing priority features within Stripe's ecosystem, or augmenting existing development staff for our users to deliver faster and more resilient connections to Stripe.
While maintenance is part of the work, you'll often be starting new and exciting projects. Since this is a new team at Stripe, you'll succeed if you get excited about driving direction and taking ownership of your work.
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.
