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

Stripe will succeed at our mission of increasing the GDP of the internet only if we preserve Stripe users’ trust. To achieve their trust, the team is building an authorization infrastructure platform that ensures proper authorization for users and services. We enforce access controls and provide access observability and policy governance. We collaborate with teams across Stripe to adopt our authorization platform to protect their resources, especially Stripe users’ data. Ultimately we ensure resources across Stripe are accessed securely and in compliance with policies, hence maintaining Stripe users’ trust.

What you’ll do

Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain reliable, performant and scalable authorization infrastructure (e.g. libraries, frameworks, services).
  • Build a comprehensive understanding of authorization needs of our users (e.g. product teams and infrastructure teams).
  • Build comprehensive, easy-to-use, and policy driven authorization solutions.
  • Collaborate with our users to adopt our authorization solutions to protect their resources by providing a great user experience.
  • Build access visibility and continuous policy governance to empower resource owners, legal and compliance to put risk of inappropriate access under control

Who you are

We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

  • 2-5 years of professional hands-on software development experience
  • Has experience in the security domain
  • Has a curious and learning mindset, regardless of level or experience
  • Has empathy, strong communication skills and a deep respect for the power of collaboration
  • Works well cross-functionally and cross-team; and your co-workers at all levels trust you
  • Drives clear next steps when encountering ambiguous spaces without clear lines of ownership
  • Thinks creatively and holistically when solving problems
  • Prefers simple solutions and designs over complex ones, and have a good intuition for what is lasting and scalable.
  • High standards for code quality and a constructive attitude to help others raise the bar

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience in the authorization domain
  • Experience with Go, Java or Ruby
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.

The annual US base salary range for this role is $155,700 - $233,500. 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.
