Who we are

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

The Product Design team is composed of several teams that work together to help define, create, and deliver all user-facing aspects of the Stripe brand and product. Product Designers are strategic partners to Engineering and Product Management within a dedicated product area. In partnership with the product team, they help define the user-facing experiences our users encounter on Stripe products, then translate that thinking into a complete experience that can be tested, shipped, and refined. They are responsible for creating and maintaining well-functioning and beautiful products and experiences that users love and are eager to recommend to others. 

What you’ll do

Areas you could work on:

• Designing end-to-end experiences for some of Stripe’s largest and most complex users: Marketplaces such as Doordash and Lyft, and platforms such as Shopify and Woo
• Drive the vision for how these platforms and marketplaces manage risk and compliance for their business and their users in the US and internationally, including global tax reporting
• Work with other designers on the team to define the future of the experience for all Connect users on the dashboard

Responsibilities:

• Design industry-leading dashboard experiences that make it easier and faster for our users to run their businesses
• Turn ambiguous problems that our users are facing into concrete solutions
• Shape the platform experiences roadmap by prototyping and pitching new ideas we haven’t even thought of yet, and gaining cross-functional buy-in
• Uphold Stripe’s UI design quality and standards, including contributing to our global design systems
• Work in a highly collaborative fashion with the design, product, and engineering teams
• Partner closely with our user research team and support ongoing research projects
• Partner closely with our content design team to define an information architecture that scales for platforms of all sizes and geographies
• Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with design and company leadership
• Focus on what you do best—whether that’s sketches, wireframes, prototypes, designs, or code—you’ll have the opportunity to sharpen the skills you’re looking to develop
