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
The Product Design team is made up of several groups that define, create, and deliver all user-facing aspects of Stripe’s brand and product. Product Designers are strategic partners to Engineering and Product Management within their product area. In close collaboration with product teams, they shape user experiences, then translate them into high-quality designs that can be tested, shipped, and refined. Designers are responsible for building elegant, functional products that users love—and want to tell others about.
The Terminal design team crafts product experiences that empower users to configure and manage in person payments. This team transforms the intricate world of payments into intuitive solutions, letting users focus on growing their businesses. The team spans hardware and software, focusing on many types of users: end users who pay at the point of sale, cashiers and operations managers who set up and run the devices, and merchants who manage a fleet of devices and need to monitor performance.
What you’ll do
As a product designer, you’ll work closely with the product manager and engineering team to envision payments features in the Stripe Dashboard and our end-user-facing surfaces and partner with go-to-market teams to bring them to users. That includes new feature development, product quality improvements to our most frequently used workflows, and setting vision for our products to meet new user expectations in an increasingly data and AI-driven world.
