Desirable

• Large, complex businesses on Stripe have historically had to create a new Stripe account for each global entity or business unit—making it difficult to unify reporting and manage payment operations across all accounts
• Our customers want a way to manage these accounts under one umbrella so they can operate at scale more efficiently
• We are responsible for building Organizations, which allows merchants to effectively and centrally manage their businesses across multiple Stripe accounts
• As Stripe continues to grow its suite of product offerings beyond payments, Organizations will unlock a new phase of growth for Stripe
• We will do this by enabling our platforms and businesses to model their complex businesses and distribute all of Stripe’s products to their end users
• As a leader on the User Auth Experience team, you will help shape the team’s vision and roadmap, guide and mentor your peers, and lead by example
• Authentication, Login, and general Account Security experiences are deeply cross-cutting areas at Stripe with critical security, safety, and quality considerations
• You will work with many partner teams: peer engineering organizations to build robust/reusable/standardized access controls, as well as non-engineer groups to shape the security, beauty, and usability of the end-to-end journey of Stripe account authentication
• You’ll play a major role in Stripe’s defense strategy, keeping users and data protected from fraudulent activity through intelligently assessing risk and refining user workflows accordingly
• As an engineer on the team, you’ll directly build well-tested APIs, UX/UI pieces, and analytics engines for defining and measuring the full-stack Dashboard authentication story, elevating the experience for every end user
• By creating and expanding these account management “building blocks”, you’ll build out a generalized authentication platform that can be leveraged to bring best-in-class usability and security to multiple Stripe-owned surfaces—multiplying the efforts of product teams to more quickly and confidently build safe, controlled features
• Build beautiful web experiences and secure full-stack authentication machinery that impacts millions of users
• Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
• Drive sound technical decision-making and lead technical conversations with other teams across Stripe
• Shape your team’s culture, roadmap, and vision through your guidance, mentorship, foresight, and technical and social expertise
• As a leader within Engineering, assist with growth and development of your team and organization while maintaining a high bar for excellence and technical curiosity
