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

Trust is central to Stripe’s mission to grow the GDP of the internet and the Risk team advances that mission by building products and infrastructure that Stripe businesses, Stripe product teams, and Stripe’s network of regulators and financial partners rely on. From helping businesses onboard to Stripe to managing regulatory compliance at scale, Risk is at the center of what makes Stripe run. The Technical Program Manager team is responsible for delivering the cross-Stripe programs that help businesses grow on Stripe, enable products to launch safely at scale, and Stripe to maintain its position as the most trusted network in the financial ecosystem.

What you’ll do

You will lead a team of TPMs and PGMs to deliver on Stripe’s most complex, cross-cutting, and critical programs. As a manager, you will support your team in leading programs that advance Stripe and Risk’s mission. You’ll hire, coach, and grow a team of excellent TPMs that support Stripe’s growing needs and the individuals’ careers. You will also act as a TPM yourself on the most complex initiatives that uniquely need your hands-on leadership.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
