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

About the team

Stripe builds the economic infrastructure for the internet. Building
trust between banks, businesses & customers is a key ingredient for
Stripe to be successful. Unfortunately, fraudsters & bad actors
erode that trust. The Fraud Intelligence team builds backend and machine
learning (ML) systems to reduce fraud while retaining a best-in-class
user experience. Our work directly impacts Stripe's bottom line, and we
help build a safer financial backbone for the internet. 

We are looking for a Head of Fraud Intelligence (which includes three
teams of Detection, Actioning, and Discovery) to work closely with
partners in product and business to prioritize and drive our shared
strategy. These teams are responsible for building machine learning (ML)
models, optimization algorithms, tooling, and interventions to detect
and take action against fraudsters while optimizing against critical
constraints. This is a unique opportunity to have an outsized impact on
the future of how Stripe reduces fraud at scale. 

You will:

• Own critical loss, user experience, and automation metrics and focus
  the teams on delivering against these metrics
  
• Manage a team of leaders and help develop their careers with stretch
  responsibilities and excellent feedback
  
• Set and execute a vision for how we detect, optimize, and mitigate
  fraud losses at scale at Stripe in collaboration with business
  partners
  
• Work with engineering leaders in your org and across Stripe to build
  scalable and automated systems and make the right foundational
  investments
  
• Empower your engineering teams to deliver a high level of technical
  quality and impact
  
• Recruit a diverse team of engineers and managers that are amongst the
  best in the industry, from outreach to closing
  
• Contribute to engineering-wide initiatives as a member of Stripe’s
  engineering management team
  

You will be a good fit if you:

• Have several years of experience hiring, growing, and developing
  managers
  
• Have experience building scalable ML and backend systems
  
• Lead by example in fast-paced, high-impact, ambiguous environments
  
• Enjoy measuring and improving user experience
  
• Hold yourself and others to a high bar when working with production
  systems
  
• Thrive in a collaborative cross-functional environment and fostering a
