Original job description

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

Our team owns open-source SDKs that reflect the Stripe API in seven different programming languages. A vast majority of server-side Stripe integrations are built using our open-source SDKs. Our team also owns an in-house code generation framework, which we use to generate not just the SDKs, but the code snippets in our documentation and the commands in Stripe Shell, which is an in-browser version of the Stripe CLI.

We are dedicated to providing a world-class experience for developers using our SDKs. We influence how Stripe authors and releases APIs so that SDKs and documentation represent them in a user-friendly way. We want to collaborate with and help our friends in the Stripe community who build and maintain SDKs in programming languages that we don't support.

What you’ll do

In this role, you'll have an opportunity to shape the experience of developers using Stripe SDKs that power over 80% of the payment volume at Stripe.

Be the Golang expert on the team, representing the needs of the Golang community and ensuring we build experiences that are idiomatic
Use your Node.js expertise to improve our code generation framework and work toward a future where we open source it to make it easier for third-party Stripe SDK owners to maintain their libraries
Collaborate with various Stripe teams to release their APIs in the SDKs and improve the efficiency of the release process
Help streamline the API authoring process at Stripe
Support our users reaching out to us on the open-source GitHub repositories for our SDKs
Add support for new language features in SDKs
Help lead the API design process at Stripe, providing guidance to product teams as they seek to produce powerful and intuitive abstractions that surface through our SDKs
Collaborate, mentor, and provide support to other team members

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

6+ years in engineering across a wide range of products
3+ years of experience as a Golang software engineer
An interest in working with multiple programming languages
A passion for API design and developer experience

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in PHP and Ruby
Experience building libraries and/or SDKs
Knowledge of Open API spec and protobuf

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.

Pay and benefits

The annual salary range for this role in the primary location is CA$135,200 - CA$258,000. 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.

We look forward to hearing from you.

At Stripe, we're looking for people with passion, grit, and integrity. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out - and set you apart - especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns. At Stripe, we welcome diverse perspectives and people who think rigorously and aren't afraid to challenge assumptions. Join us.
