We build the foundational platform for Stripe products and services to operate at scale, driving reliability, availability, efficiency and scalability.

Supported by internally developed large scale distributed services and popular open source technologies like Trino/Presto, Apache Pinot, Hive Metastore, and ElasticSearch.
• Admin Platform - Empower teams to quickly build secure and delightful internal products.
• Service Platform - Enable engineering teams to easily write and ship useful services that correctly, reliably, and efficiently leverage platform capabilities.
• Developer Productivity AI - Responsible for doubling Stripe's engineering velocity through effective use of LLMs, including Minions, Stripe's one-shot, end-to-end coding agents.

Team matching for specific subteams will occur during final stages. Consideration may be given for different teams based on experience and location.
