Who we are

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. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

In this role, you’d be joining the Security Reporting team. Our team is responsible for visualizing Stripe’s security risk posture, providing intuitive and actionable insights. We also provide self-service workflows and security tools to help engineers build more secure software. Your contributions to the team will be key to scaling our efforts to protect users and Stripe’s most valuable data.

What you’ll do

As a Software Engineer on the Security Reporting team, you’ll play a pivotal role in scaling our efforts to ensure security is baked into everything we build and maintain at Stripe. You’ll help to create the internal tools and interfaces to clearly communicate and display Stripe’s security posture using data from our security data pipeline. Working on such a platform, you’ll be enabling our product engineering teams to take action and business leaders to consider how to reduce risks to their products and systems.

While prior experience with Security is definitely a plus, it’s not a requirement for this role. So if you’re eager to jump into a new challenge and gain experience in Security, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!

• Uphold best practices in engineering and design.
