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.
The Ruby Foundations team supports Stripe's Ruby engineers by providing increasingly fast and feature-rich developer tooling. We deliver projects that improve CPU utilization, memory usage, and cost efficiency of Ruby in both CI and production environments. Our team is responsible for Sorbet (Stripe's open-source Ruby type system), the processes for testing and adopting new versions of Ruby, and performance improvements to Ruby and its toolchain.
Ruby is the primary programming language used to build the business logic behind Stripe's products. The Ruby Infrastructure Foundations team ensures that this essential technology is used productively by Stripe engineers and remains fast and efficient in production. We work with a codebase of tens of millions of lines (and growing), used by hundreds of engineers across the globe. Our work is crucial in enabling Stripe engineers working with Ruby to have the most productive time of their careers while building and maintaining the core business logic that Stripe and its customers need to thrive.
