What you’ll do

We’re looking for Fullstack engineers who are interested in building software services and platforms that impact thousands of employees and millions of Stripe users, regardless of whether they’re an end user, developer, or partner.

Responsibilities

• Work with a wide range of systems, processes and technologies to own and solve problems from end-to-end.
• Work closely with engineers, designers, and product managers to build new features and products.
• Uphold our high engineering standards and bring consistency to the many codebases and processes you will encounter.
• Build elegant APIs and user experiences that enable merchants to run and scale their businesses on top of Stripe.
• Contribute to the design and architecture of the next generation of Stripe’s infrastructure, to meet the high growth needs of our company and customers for years to come.

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.

• 2-12+ years of industry software engineering experience (does not include internships nor includes co-ops).
• You can work effectively across the stack from top to bottom, comfortably navigating codebases with different languages and tools.
• You’re equally as comfortable shipping user-facing experiences as you are writing custom queries to analyze experiment results.
• Strong coding skills in any programming language (we understand new languages can be learned on the job so our interview process is language agnostic).
• Strong collaboration skills, can work across workstreams within your team and contribute to your peers’ success.
• Have the ability to thrive on a high level of autonomy, responsibility, and think of yourself as entrepreneurial.
• Interest in working as a generalist across varying technologies and stacks to solve problems and delight both internal and external users.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working in high-growth teams similar to Stripe.
• Experience building financial systems or tools for financial experts.

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

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 salary range for this role in the primary location is C$135,200 - C$258,000. This range may change if you are hired in another location. 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 specific location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the primary location may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Specific benefits and details about what compensation is included in the salary range listed above will vary depending on the applicant’s location and can be discussed in more detail during the interview process. Benefits/additional compensation for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; retirement plans; health benefits; and wellness stipends.

At Stripe, we're looking for people with passion, grit, and integrity. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out—and set you apart—especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns. At Stripe, we welcome diverse perspectives and people who think rigorously and aren't afraid to challenge assumptions. Join us.
