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.
Internal technical writers collaborate and partner with Stripe engineers to ensure technical documentation is clear and effective. Tech writers both write documentation, and provide guidance and consulting support for engineers on how to organize, structure, and maintain the information their Stripe peers rely on to do their jobs.
Stripe cares deeply about developer productivity for its engineers. Good internal documentation means engineers spend less time searching for answers, wrestling with tools, and interrupting each other with questions.
Every Stripe engineer reads and writes documentation, and investing in this space means treating our own engineers as customers. Inadequate documentation is a significant detractor for the developer experience, while efficient knowledge sharing is a force multiplier that increases productivity and job satisfaction.
The team is multi-disciplinary, with engineers and technical writers working together to help write the docs and shape the tooling that enables Stripe engineers to be more productive.
You’ll join the technical writing team to enable Stripe’s engineers to quickly ship reliable code, while minimizing cognitive overhead.
