The Data Transformation and Movement team operates the critical infrastructure that powers near-realtime and batch data processing at Stripe. The team supports a variety of use cases, including Payment, Ledger, ML, Fraud Detection, Product Analytics, Regulatory Reporting, Financial Data Reconciliation, and externally facing products like Radar and Sigma. As an example of the scale, the team’s systems serve hundreds of teams, thousands of workflows, 100,000+ task executions, O(billion) streaming transformations, and moving terabytes of data processing over 1 GB/second every day. Our users inside Stripe include other engineering teams, Data Scientists, Sales & Operations, Finance, etc.
This role could be on any one of the following sub-teams:
Data Movement builds and operates a constellation of multi-region, high scale ingestion systems that moves data from all online sources into Iceberg, with sub-minute latency. On the cusp of innovation, we're pushing the boundaries of open-source Iceberg and Spark for real-time ingestion.
Data Orchestration builds and operates the time-based and event-based orchestration infrastructure that powers and accelerates batch data pipelines.
Data Transformation builds and operates the transformation abstractions and infrastructure that support frictionless data development across the board, sub-minute event data to enormous daily partitions - or even for-all-time snapshots.
Our team operates on a wide range of tech stacks including Kafka, Event Bus, Change Data Capture, Flink, Spark, Airflow, Hive MetaStore, Trino, Pinot, SQL, Python, Java, Scala, S3, and Iceberg.

Minimum requirements
Preferred qualifications
This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).
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.
A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.
The annual US base salary range for this role is $150,500 - $269,200. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.
Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
