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 Stripe Security team is dedicated to improving the security of Stripe and its users. Our users trust us with some of their most sensitive information, and we make security a first-class consideration in everything we do. Security concerns are ever‑evolving, creating an extremely dynamic environment for the Security team. Our Security Partnerships team enables Stripe to build secure‑by‑design products. We leverage strong relationships with both product teams and the rest of the security engineering organization to be successful. Our scope is primarily focused on reviewing early‑stage designs, helping develop threat models, scaling impact via automation, curating security patterns, authoring security guidance, training, and championing security initiatives. We operate with an engineering mindset and are currently building out AI‑driven self‑service offerings for our customers. While we sometimes may execute on tactical projects, one of our core principles is to be strategic in our approach to solving problems.
