Who we are About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. 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.

About the team

You’ll be joining the Internal Communications team. We take pride in the craft behind our communications, and we use them to connect Stripe’s fast-growing global team to the company’s mission, priorities, and plans, building shared understanding and meaningful engagement along the way. We steer clear of jargon, clichés, and generic corporate language by relentlessly upholding the Stripe tone (get a flavor of it through our operating principles), and we keep Stripe weird.

What you’ll do

With thousands of talented Stripes across the world, we have the opportunity—and responsibility—to provide rich context, clarity on company priorities, and beacons for culture. Every corner of Stripe holds fascinating stories waiting to be uncovered, and in this role, you’ll bring them to light.

You’ll act as an internal reporter, editor, and publisher, finding the most unexpected and illuminating stories across Stripe. You’ll shape those stories into engaging writing and content (blog posts, video, podcast) that is witty, engaging, and educational in its own right, not just a conduit for information—and ensure they reach the right people through thoughtful distribution.

To succeed in this role, you’ll need to build strong relationships across teams, navigate Stripe’s internal tools, and connect disparate ideas into cohesive narratives. You’ll be a collaborative teammate who’s also comfortable working independently. And above all, you’ll be an excellent writer. You might have a background in internal comms—or just as likely, you’ve worked as a journalist or multimedia storyteller focused on entrepreneurship and technology.

Responsibilities Research, distill, and communicate complex business and technical updates from across the business (Product, Engineering, GTM, etc.) in clear, creative, and engaging ways for global Stripes. Ingest a wide range of formal and informal sources—data, documents, meeting notes, memos, highly technical material—and proactively build a robust pipeline with updates worth a broader audience. Tell the stories of the people and teams building Stripe – showing the exceptional pace, standard and user-first mindset upheld by Stripes across the world. Maintain deep curiosity and a strong understanding of how the business operates. Experiment with storytelling beyond writing—through video, audio, interactive formats, events, and whatever else helps the story land. Monitor progress and sentiment among Stripes and make course corrections as needed. Build, manage, and evolve multiple editorial initiatives simultaneously to keep up with business and audience needs. Who you are
