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.
Machine learning is an integral part of almost every service at Stripe. It is a key investment area with products and use cases that span merchant and transaction risk, payments optimization, identity, and merchant data analytics and insights (Sigma). We are also using the latest generative AI technologies (such as LLMs and FMs) to re-imagine product experiences and developing AI Assistants both for our customers (e.g. Radar Assistant and Sigma Assistant), and also to make Stripes more productive across Support, Marketing, Sales, and Engineering roles within the company.
From a data perspective, Stripe handles over $1T in payments volume per year, which is roughly 1% of the world’s GDP. We process petabytes of financial data using our ML platform to build features, train models, and deploy them to production. We use a combination of highly scalable and explainable models such as linear/logistic regression and random forests, along with the latest deep neural networks from transformers to LLMs. Some of our latest innovations have been around figuring out how best to bring transformers and LLMs to improve existing models and also enable entirely new product ideas that are only made possible by GenAI.
As part of the ML Foundations organization you will play a critical role in the acceleration of our Machine Learning journey at Stripe. The organization develops the AI/ML foundational platform features and GenAI models to enable all Stripes to create AI/ML powered product features and applications. As a lead you will be responsible for helping build out the Machine Learning roadmap for the organization, end to end model development, and driving Machine Learning and Gen AI initiatives. You will also coach and mentor our ML engineering talent, and work closely with engineering leadership and large cross-functional teams including engineering, data scientists and product teams to help scale the AI/ML efforts.
