What will you do

Design, build, and operate the core security infrastructure used by all of Stripe's engineering teams in close collaboration with other stakeholders and our users.
Uphold our high engineering standards and bring consistency to the many codebases and processes you will encounter.
Contribute to team learning by improving engineering standards, tooling, and processes.
Design and build durable solutions that will advance Stripe's security beyond the state of the art.
Help expand Stripe's cloud footprint on top of secure, paved roads and guardrails.
Optimize for security controls that have delightful user experiences.
Partner closely with infrastructure and engineering teams building integrations with our cloud infrastructure or adopting new cloud managed services.
Make impactful decisions about systems and security - their edge cases, failure modes, and life cycles.
Use data to determine appropriate baselines against which to measure security.
Define infrastructure that reliably feeds signals to threat teams.
Evaluate and prototype new security tools and practices.

You may work on:

Designing and implementing controls that support security invariants and enforce our security principles while providing a surprisingly great user experience.
Providing a migration path for newly acquired companies onto the Stripe Secure Platform, embedding with their engineers and biasing for action.
CI tooling for platform-related configuration: IAM roles, SCPs, and associated components.
Guardrails and security controls for both commonly used and newer cloud technologies.
Expanding our cloud identity infrastructure to provide paved paths for AI and agentic access.
Automation tooling for continually driving down permissions and access across our cloud services.

Minimum requirements

Empathy, strong communication skills and a deep respect for the power of collaboration.
A learning mindset, regardless of level or experience.
The ability to drive clear next steps when encountering ambiguous spaces without clear lines of ownership.
High standards for code quality and a constructive attitude to help others raise the bar.
Software engineering experience in a high-stakes production environment.
A knack for considering how systems can fail and how to fix them.
An ability to think creatively and holistically about reducing risk in a complex environment.
Experience with security on one or more of AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Preferred qualifications

Experience conducting threat modeling of software or infrastructure in cloud native environments.
Experience with Linux systems, Kubernetes, and/or container-based platforms.
Prior usage of security monitoring tools (e.g., CSPM, CNAAP).
Experience in a multi-cloud, or complex, cloud environment.
A knack for considering how systems can fail and how to fix them.
An ability to think creatively and holistically about reducing risk in a complex environment.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
