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.
About the team
Developer AI is a new, experimental team rethinking Stripe's external 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.
What you'll do
We're looking for an experienced software engineer to help develop, drive, and implement our roadmap. This team is on the bleeding-edge of AI engineering at Stripe so you will have an opportunity to redefine Stripe's world-class DX and how we utilize AI in product development across the company.
Responsibilities
• Design and build innovative new developer tools and experiences and the highly performant, AI-powered systems that back them
• Be an expert and technical leader at the company for all things AI engineering (prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, eval, etc)
• Improve engineering standards, tooling and processes for the team and our broader org
• Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
• Advise Stripe leadership on key technology and product roadmap considerations
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.
Minimum requirements
• 6+ years of experience in full time software development roles
• You have hands-on applied ML (model training, deployment to production, etc) OR AI engineering (building products where ML and LLMs are a core piece of the product experience) experience
• Comfortable being truly full stack, navigating codebases with different languages and tools
• Experience working at a startup or a small, fast-moving experimental team within a larger organization
• Experience supporting large projects (6+ months in length) including defining the roadmap for complex projects spanning multiple teams and functions
• Experience mentoring other engineers
• You care deeply about solving user problems and have great intuition around what developers care about and want from their tools
Preferred qualifications
• You keep up-to-date on the latest in AI engineering practices and research
• You've previously worked on developer tools or developer experience at companies known for having great DX
• You can move fast but don't lose sight of the foundations that are needed to build systems of long-term value
• You are excited about working on a new team with big ambitions and helping to chart the path to achieve them
Hybrid work at Stripe
Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users.
Pay and benefits
The annual US base salary range for this role is $179,400 - $269,200. 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.
