  • Recruit, mentor, develop, and inspire team members to do the best work of their careers, focusing on deep domain expertise in billing and revenue recognition.
  • Influence the mindset of CXOs, developers, architects, and other technical decision-makers, helping shape their long-term architectural direction for revenue management.
  • Champion the voice of our customers and influence product direction and priorities within the revenue management ecosystem.
  • Partner with Sales, Professional Services, Support, and Product Engineering to guide the customer journey from business and technical discovery to successful adoption, value realization, and expansion.

If you're passionate about people, ideas, and embracing the unknown, if you see setbacks as chances to learn and grow, and if you believe in the power of focused effort to drive progress—then this is the place for you! At Stripe, we welcome diverse perspectives and people who think rigorously and aren't afraid to challenge assumptions.

  • Exceptional interpersonal skills for communicating and collaborating with both business and technical stakeholders at all levels within an organization.
  • Strong executive presence and ability to foster deep relationships with customers, particularly in the context of revenue solutions.

Hybrid work at Stripe

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

In-office expectations

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.

Working remotely at Stripe

A remote location 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 live or plan to live.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $249,600 - $374,400. 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.
