Stripe

Who We Are

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Born in 2010, Stripe helps companies of every size accept payments online and in person, embed financial services, and run revenue operations on a single, AI-powered platform. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet by making moving money as easy and programmable as moving data.

With over 8,500 employees worldwide, we've built a reputation for powering modern commerce through products like Payments, Billing, Connect, Issuing, Terminal, Tax, and Treasury. We serve millions of businesses across 100+ markets, supporting 135+ currencies and payment methods—from startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.

Our Team

We're a global team headquartered in South San Francisco with significant hubs across the world, including offices in Dublin, Singapore, Tokyo, and beyond. Stripes work across product, engineering, sales, operations, and more to support our growing ecosystem of users worldwide.

We care deeply about precision, reliability (maintaining five 9s historical uptime), and rapid iteration to deliver secure, high-quality financial infrastructure. Our engineering culture emphasizes building simply and shipping quickly while maintaining the highest standards of quality and security.

Our Values and Mission

Our values guide everything we do:

• Increase internet economic opportunity by lowering barriers to entrepreneurship and making commerce accessible globally
• Obsess over reliability, security, and accuracy at global scale—our infrastructure handles billions in transactions
• Build simply and ship quickly with high standards of quality, favoring clear solutions over complex ones
• Partner deeply with users—from startups to the world's largest enterprises, we listen and iterate based on real needs
• Act with curiosity, rigor, and kindness while tackling ambitious problems that shape the future of the internet economy

Work-Life Balance

Stripe offers approximately 36 days of time off annually, including around 21 days of PTO, public holidays, and a company-wide winter break at the end of the year. This generous time-off policy reflects our commitment to helping employees recharge and maintain sustainable work practices.

Work Policy: Our approach to workplace flexibility varies by role, team, and location. Office-assigned Stripes are generally expected to spend at least 50% of their time in their local office per month. Some locations have different requirements: Bucharest has an 80% in-office expectation, while Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City and Bengaluru are 100% in-office. We believe in-person collaboration strengthens our work while recognizing the value of flexibility.
