About the role
- As Stripe operates across an increasingly complex and fast-moving global regulatory environment, one of our most important functions is ensuring that our largest, most strategic users can grow with us-compliantly, confidently, and at speed.
- We sit at the intersection of Legal, Compliance, Engineering, Product, Data Science, and GTM-serving as the bridge between teams coordinating massive programs with global, wide-reaching impact.
Responsibilities
- You will define, own, and execute program strategies for large-scale regulatory initiatives, operating with significant autonomy across a portfolio of global projects.
- Own and execute high-stakes global programs end-to-end, from initial strategy and scoping to project planning, day-to-day tracking, and change management
- Drive step-change improvements in our operational processes, rolling up your sleeves to build systems and workflows that directly improve business outcomes and top-line metrics
- Bridge compliance and commercial strategy by partnering with GTM and account leadership to turn complex regulatory requirements into a competitive advantage that builds deep user trust
- Build and run operating models across diverse cross-functional teams (including Product, Engineering, Legal, Risk, and Compliance), keeping highly distributed workstreams aligned and accountable
- Diagnose and resolve systemic operational gaps before they impact our users, building self-healing processes and scalable internal infrastructure
Requirements
- You are a highly strategic operator, a masterful communicator, and a systems thinker with operational grit.
- You thrive in the gray area, possessing the ability to translate ambiguous global challenges into elegant, structured, and highly actionable operational frameworks.
- You have a deep empathy for the user, an unyielding bias toward action, and you take pride in the craft of execution.
- 10+ years of experience in Program Management, Strategy & Operations, Management Consulting, or Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
- Hands-on execution track record: Proven ability to work independently as an individual contributor, managing complex, multi-stakeholder project plans and deliverables from inception to completion
- a proven ability to distill highly complex, technical, or regulatory topics into clear, succinct, and persuasive narratives to external and senior audiences
- Systems and infrastructure builder: Deep experience designing, launching, and scaling complex cross-functional operating models, feedback loops, and PMO frameworks
- 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.

Nice to have
- 3+ years of experience in high-growth technology or fintech environments
- Deep cross-functional partnership: Prior experience working alongside Engineering, Product, Legal, Compliance, and GTM/Sales
- Data fluency: Experience leveraging data visualization tools and analytical frameworks to back up strategic decisions and measure program success
- While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office.
Skills
- Deep experience designing, launching, and scaling complex cross-functional operating models, feedback loops, and PMO frameworks
Compensation
- The annual US base salary range for this role is $157,800 - $236,800.
- For sales roles, the range provided is the role's On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
Benefits
- equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
- You will need to zoom out to design the long-term vision, and zoom in to manage the details-building templates, tracking deliverables, writing documentation, and directly unblocking cross-functional teams.
