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 Python Infrastructure (Python Infra) team supports the productivity of Stripe’s Python engineers by creating and supporting cross cutting infrastructural libraries, services, and utilities; establishing and enforcing clean Python coding patterns; making sweeping code changes that improve the quality of Stripe's Python codebase; and improving Python build times and reliability.
Python is a popular language of choice for data science and machine learning at Stripe, which underpin many of our products and business-critical processes. All of our data jobs are also orchestrated using Python, and the language is popular for scripts, internal tooling, and anywhere you might need ‘glue’. Our users include not only software engineers working on our products, but data scientists, ML engineers, DevOps, and other infrastructure engineers. Understanding and meeting the needs of this diverse userbase is not easy, but what we do is key to allowing Stripe engineers working in Python to have the most productive time of their career while building and running the systems that Stripe and its customers need in order to thrive. We’re looking for a leader to help run this high impact, high leverage, and high visibility team.

- Recruit great engineers, in collaboration with Stripe’s recruiting team
- Help engineers advance in their careers and develop new skills
- Contribute to engineering-wide initiatives as a member of Stripe’s engineering management team
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. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
Minimum requirements
- 5+ years of leading engineering teams
- You have a passion for supporting developer productivity
- You’ve managed teams that designed and operated critical infrastructure, particularly with a broad remit across core capabilities, builds, and quality
- You are empathetic to customer needs but visionary enough to not just deliver a faster horse

- You’ve successfully recruited and built great teams
- You thrive on a high level of autonomy and responsibility
- You have clear and persuasive writing and in-person communication

- You are comfortable working with geographically distributed teams
Preferred qualifications
- Python experience or experience working on developer/data/ML infrastructure
This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).
Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.
A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.
The annual salary range for this role in the primary location is €104,000 - €201,600. This range may change if you are hired in another location. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings (“OTE”) range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and specific location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the primary location may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.
Specific benefits and details about what compensation is included in the salary range listed above will vary depending on the applicant’s location and can be discussed in more detail during the interview process. Benefits/additional compensation for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; retirement plans; health benefits; and wellness stipends.
