Staff Engineer at Stripe building an extensibility platform for Stripe Billing. Owns technical architecture, designs extension points, and partners with domain teams to scale from early adoption to general availability.
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.
In this role, you'll be joining a small, focused team with a large mandate: enabling businesses and Stripes to extend Stripe Billing exactly to their needs. Our users accomplish the vast majority of their goals with what Stripe Billing provides out of the box, but when they need to tailor billing logic to their unique business model, this team provides the tools and capabilities to do it.
We are in the early stages of building an extensibility platform for Stripe Billing and are working toward general availability. Our work unlocks enterprise customers with complex, bespoke billing requirements — directly contributing to Stripe's mission of increasing the GDP of the internet.
As a Staff Engineer on the team, you'll own the technical direction of our extensibility platform and play a central role in how we grow from early adoption to general availability. You'll work closely with other Billing domain teams to identify where extensibility creates the most value, partnering with them to build those capabilities into their products as first-class features — not afterthoughts.
This is a high-autonomy, high-ownership role on a team that is actively shaping a new product area at Stripe. You'll navigate novel engineering challenges — including how to safely execute user-authored logic inside Stripe's billing engine — and establish the technical patterns the rest of the team builds on. You'll also be a key voice in cross-functional conversations with Billing leadership and Extensibility platform teams as we scale adoption from early customers to a broadly available product.
