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
The Product Design team is made up of several groups that define, create, and deliver all user-facing aspects of Stripe’s brand and product. Product Designers are strategic partners to Engineering and Product Management within their product area. In close collaboration with product teams, they shape user experiences, then translate them into high-quality designs that can be tested, shipped, and refined. Designers are responsible for building elegant, functional products that users love—and want to tell others about.
Payments manages Stripe's core financial products, develops tools for efficient payment acceptance and risk management, and creates solutions that empower businesses to optimize their revenue operations. The sheer volume of payments that flow through Stripe on an hourly basis necessitates the highest level of craft and reliability, which means that Payments product designers have the chance to create and ship the best work of their careers.
What you’ll do
You will lead design for the Payments Dashboard team, seeing over the end to end payments experience for business operators and decision makers. You’ll work across Payments teams, lead through your work, and collaborate closely with other designers to set a high bar for craft and quality in Payments Dashboard experiences. Initially you’ll go deep on creating a new primitive in the Stripe Dashboard that enables merchants to do advanced configuration of payments acceptance and processing with little to no coding. You will also be a leader in defining AI-driven workflows and designing the merchant experience for important revenue drivers for Stripe.
