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. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. 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.
We look forward to hearing from you.

About Stripe
Stripe, founded in 2010 by Patrick and John Collison in South San Francisco and Dublin, builds financial infrastructure for the internet. Its APIs let millions of businesses accept payments, manage subscriptions, prevent fraud with Radar, and move money with Connect and Treasury. Valued at $65B+ after its 2024 rounds and processing over $1T annually, Stripe is the default for marketplaces, SaaS and AI startups. In Web3, Stripe's crypto on-ramps and USDC payouts bridge traditional checkout with on-chain treasury. Teams emphasize written clarity, rigorous productcraft and owning money movement that must work every time. In addition to global payments infrastructure, Stripe invests heavily in crypto developer tools, USDC stablecoin settlement rails, and automated merchant payouts.
