What the job involves
- 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
- Developer AI is an experimental team rethinking Stripe’s developer experience for the AI era. We are using the latest LLMs and AI engineering techniques to help developers streamline and automate the building and maintaining of their Stripe integrations
- Some areas we’re currently working on:
- Automating the zero to one integration experience for developers building on Stripe’s APIs
- Bringing Stripe knowledge (docs, reference, support, etc) to developer fingertips, wherever they are working
- Reducing the pain of API migrations and upgrades
- Exploring new, boundary-pushing ways AI can improve the overall Developer Experience
- We’re looking for an experienced designer to help us design the future of AI for developers
- In the Developer AI team, you will shape Stripe's developer experience and evolve it through the lens of AI and our company-wide AI strategy, impacting how AI tools interact with payments at scale
- Design and build innovative new developer tools and experiences from the ground up, powered by AI
- Understand the AI industry and how it’s evolving, then apply that to design AI experiences for developers from the ground up
- Craft beautiful AI experiences that push the boundaries of our design language and systems, ensuring we’re thinking beyond current patterns
- Experiment with new interaction models and patterns for using AI tools that set the standard for the industry
- Turn ambiguous problems that our users are facing into concrete products, from proposal, to kick-off, vision, building, and launch
- Feel comfortable building with AI yourself, and understand how to prototype your ideas using these tools as a part of your design process
- Shape the developer experience roadmap by prototyping alongside our engineers to pitch new ideas we haven’t even thought of yet, and gain cross-functional buy-in
- Work closely with our partner teams, including Developer Products, Connect, Merchant Experience, and across the entire organization to uplevel our AI experiences
- Advocate for how AI can help our users across internal teams, ensuring they understand how it will shape the entire way we ship products
- Work in a highly collaborative fashion with the design, product, and project teams
- Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with design and company leadership

Our take
Stripe, nowadays a FinTech giant, spent the first few years since its founding building up its payments business, which primarily consisted of providing an API to eCommerce businesses so that they could easily integrate a payments option in their apps or websites, where before there was none.
More recently, Stripe has started to accelerate its growth with a significantly larger range of financial services including cash advances and credit cards. They also plan to build incorporation services, fraud protection, and more, diversifying its revenue away from payments and differentiating itself from its competitors.
To further expand its position, the company is looking to triple its presence in Ireland, and extend its services to countries with vast customer potential, including Brazil and India. Its latest venture, coming atop significant new funds, is to partner with OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT - a win-win collaboration that will monetize OpenAI’s flagship products and at the same time enhance Stripe with GPT-4, as it moves forwards with intentions to "build the payments foundation for tomorrow's AI economy."
