Your main responsibility will be to ensure the world gets excited about Stripe's products and what they can enable for businesses. This will involve creating compelling demos, writing memorable speeches, preparing podcasts, and other similar tasks.

In general, we've found that the most important skills you'll use a lot are excellent writing, obsessive attention to detail, first-principles thinking, creativity, and resourcefulness. And, of course, a keen curiosity both for the inner workings of Stripe's most technical products and for how the broader economic landscape is shifting under everyone's feet.

This year, we're hiring differently for some of our permanent roles. Rather than posting narrow job descriptions and screening for exact-fit experience, we want to find people of exceptional caliber and then shape the role to the person. Through the interview process, we'll work with you to find the right remit for your skills and the right path for your development.

As we explained above, the exact role and remit may look different depending on your skills, interests, and tenure at Stripe. But here's a sample set of plausible responsibilities:

• Lead global product communications for one or more of Stripe's major product areas (e.g., our Money Management suite or our Payments suite).
• Lead the development, articulation, and testing of Stripe's long-term public vision and messaging for that product area.
• Design and roll out strategic campaigns that build awareness for Stripe's products and deepen key audiences' understanding of exactly what makes those products to businesses (as well as the value they add to the broader ecosystem or economy).
• Create and edit extremely high quality written materials for Stripe's biggest moments, including newsroom posts, social content, industry keynotes, top tier media interviews, and more.
• Work with local and regional comms leads to raise awareness for Stripe globally.
• Develop and maintain relationships with top tier reporters, thought leaders, and influencers.
• Collaborate closely with your counterparts on the partnerships and product marketing teams.
• Provide strategic counsel to our executive team, including Stripe's founders and most senior product leaders.

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. We value experience, but that doesn't necessarily mean traditional comms experience. In recent years, our hiring has been 50/50 split between top comms pros and people without any such background, including several former founders. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply.
