Role

Who you are

  • 8+ years of work experience that can span marketing, product marketing, product management, operational roles, or strategy consulting
  • At least 4 years specifically in go-to-market experience, product operations or product management
  • Experience working on marketing or growth throughout a product’s lifecycle
  • Empathetic. Brings the voice of the user + their needs to the forefront, and champions their needs to inform product decision making
  • A storyteller. You have deep empathy for users and are able to adapt how you communicate to best reach and engage your audience—from developers to technical and non-technical founders—and differentiate Stripe. You have excellent verbal and written communication skills, and can distill complicated policies and requirements into concrete actions
  • Data-oriented. You like working with data and insights and pair that with your passion for users to generate balanced and thoughtful points of view for how to take our products to market
  • Organized. You are able to manage highly interdependent, complex projects and keep various work streams on track—and have a knack for developing and improving processes, and identifying opportunities to streamline areas of inefficiencies—where they exist. You thrive in ambiguous environments, and drive towards clarity amidst ever-changing dynamics
  • Ambitious. You are eager to make an impact at Stripe. You thrive in a fast-moving environment and working with passionate sales teams, are able to operate fluidly between the 30,000-foot strategy level and the micro-detail to get things right
  • A team player. Product Marketers collaborate across the wider Marketing team, PR, product, sales, comms and basically with every team at Stripe. You are able to work with a range of disciplines to execute on your work

Desirable

  • Experience in a high growth technology company
  • Experience in finance or strategy consulting

What the job involves

  • We’re looking for a Product Marketer to help develop and manage the narrative, communication and enablement strategy to support Stripe in being an effective guardian of the financial ecosystem
  • This means, helping our users seamlessly navigate the complex partner, legal, and regulatory requirements necessary to build and scale successful payments businesses, globally
  • You’ll work across our audience segments to prepare them accordingly, and partner with teams ranging from product, sales, customer success, engineering, data, legal, partnerships, and more to help create awareness of our new products and updates to market
  • Translate requirements from cross-functional stakeholders across risk, policy, legal, product, and engineering to craft simple, elegant, and user-first narratives and messages
  • Partner with product and engineering to inform how fraud and compliance should be seamlessly and intuitively displayed across Stripe product surfaces
  • Shape Stripe’s thought leadership, building our dialogue in close partnership with platforms on proactive risk management and how to be trusted actors within the space
  • Synthesize the top pain points of users on Risk to inform Stripe’s product roadmap, internal and external communications, and operations
  • Drafting user comms, and coordinating approvals and execution of any user comms
  • Consult and provide feedback on any user resources to ensure consistency in messaging across assets
  • Understand our customers within our target segments and buyer personas, and serve as an advocate for their needs in order to shape go-to-market strategy and communications around risk and compliance obligations
  • Become an expert in Stripe’s Risk and Connect products
  • Write compelling copy and clear internal docs. This is a writing-intensive role, and the bar for your writing is high: you’ll write crisp, vivid prose, with confident control over voice and tone
  • Create customer-facing assets that are polished, visually balanced, and consistent with Stripe’s brand guidelines
  • Support our go-to-market teams, including sales and customer success managers, to effectively prepare them for upcoming changes

Our take

Stripe, nowadays a FinTech giant, spent the first few years since its founding building up its payments business, which primarily consisted of providing an API to eCommerce businesses so that they could easily integrate a payments option in their apps or websites, where before there was none.

More recently, Stripe has started to accelerate its growth with a significantly larger range of financial services including cash advances and credit cards. They also plan to build incorporation services, fraud protection, and more, diversifying its revenue away from payments and differentiating itself from its competitors.

To further expand its position, the company is looking to triple its presence in Ireland, and extend its services to countries with vast customer potential, including Brazil and India. Its latest venture, coming atop significant new funds, is to partner with OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT - a win-win collaboration that will monetize OpenAI’s flagship products and at the same time enhance Stripe with GPT-4, as it moves forwards with intentions to "build the payments foundation for tomorrow's AI economy."

Company values

  • Built for builders - The best reason to work at Stripe is that you will have colleagues who support and challenge you to do the best work of your career. We combine a big-picture mindset with obsessive attention to the details, down to the last pixel, API parameter, and word.
  • An environment of growth - We care about results more than CVs. We value managers who remain experts while developing talent and designing successful orgs. You can also have a big impact and advance far without managing anyone. We want you to take what you’ve been hired to do, and show us how it’s done – you might create something we never would have imagined. We have had account managers start a publishing arm, interns who have run business units, and hackathon participants who have built company-defining products.
  • Fast-paced, detail oriented - We balance innovation with scrupulous attention to every bit and byte involved in the movement of money – because we can’t do our job well unless we do both. When we started, we emailed every API error to everyone at the company. Now, we have more than 250 million API requests a day – and we still care about each one.
  • Voraciously curious - We wish there was a book that described what we need to do next (we’d even publish it), but since there isn’t, we all have to write it together. You will need to find answers to questions you’ve never been asked before. Sometimes, you will be the first person ever to contemplate a particular problem. We want people who devour books for fun and approach new challenges with eager curiosity.
