The partnerships we cultivate are not just instrumental—they significantly influence Stripe’s ecosystem, and the products born from these collaborations touch millions of users worldwide.
As the Partner Engineering Lead, you will take on a strategic leadership role that combines business acumen with technical expertise to drive our technical partner engagement strategy. You will lead our Partner Engineering team, ensuring robust technical support and successful integration of our solutions for our financial ecosystem partners. In this pivotal position, you will act as the key liaison between our partners and internal teams, fostering strong relationships that are essential to achieving our business goals.
