The Revenue and Financial Automation team at Stripe builds software tools that accelerate the economic and technological growth of global businesses by helping them operationalize their commercial relationships with customers. Our offerings include a billing platform, SaaS analytics, data services, and finance automation products that our customers creatively combine to support various revenue models.

At Stripe, product development is an extremely collaborative effort between engineering, design, analytics, partnerships, legal, risk and go-to-market teams.

We are looking for a senior Technical Program Manager who’s passionate about solving problems in the complex tax compliance landscape.

What you’ll do

As a TPM, you will play a key role leading complex programs across multiple engineering, product and cross-functional (finance, legal, compliance, risk, and other) teams spanning Stripe. You will be an active contributor to the overall strategy of the program, drive technical decision making, and drive the execution of the program through all phases from planning to delivery. You will have the opportunity to implement mechanisms that make your programs effective and scale them to edit Stripe-level processes.

You will:

• Drive functional and technical delivery of key team and org-wide programs/initiatives.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to design, scope, and shepherd features.
• Create functional specs, project / release plans, and roadmaps.
• Own and execute one or more software engineering programs simultaneously.
• Help drive product decisions to align with program and sometimes higher company initiatives.
• Help influence peers / managers and build consensus while dealing with ambiguity.
• Guide and manage the usage of agile methodologies to simplify project delivery.

You are a fit for this role if you have:

• 2+ years of experience in technical program/product management, software engineering, systems engineering or related discipline.
• Consistent track record of shipping products with broad/global customer impact.
• You have a track record of providing solid program management during all phases of software development from kick-off to ship, demonstrating critical thinking.
• You consistently deliver programs on time.
• Operate independently and lead efforts across multiple teams and functions, with stakeholders in different disciplines across time zones.
• Ability to understand how functionality comes together (across products and platforms) to deliver value for users, and identify/mitigate delivery risks proactively.
• Strong customer focus.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Interpersonal skills to build relationships, and collaborate with diverse cross-functional teams.
• Demonstrable experience with agile software development methodologies and productivity tools.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent in computer science, engineering or a related field.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience in a global fintech or tax compliance organization of a global e-commerce company.
• Experience in large and dynamic digital marketplaces

It's not expected that any single candidate would have expertise across all of these areas—we're looking for candidates that are particularly strong in at least one area, and have some interest and capabilities in the others.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users.

Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
