About the team

What you’ll do

We are looking for a Policy Development & Strategy professional to lead the design, coordination, and execution of our cross-functional working group model. We are formalizing and streamlining coordination between Policy and product and business teams, and this person will be the connective tissue that makes it work — driving alignment between policy priorities and business strategy across the company.

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role requiring someone who is equally comfortable in a room with product engineers and senior policy leaders, and who can translate between policy risk and business opportunity with fluency and credibility. The ideal candidate brings substantive expertise in payments policy, combined with the organizational horsepower to manage complex, multi-stakeholder workstreams at scale. We are looking for someone who is equally passionate about policy and business, brings sharp analytical instincts, genuine curiosity about how products and markets work, and the drive to build something that doesn't yet exist.

Responsibilities

Lead the development and execution of the operating model connecting Stripe's Policy team to its product and business counterparts — operationalizing a strategic engagement agenda through structured forums, clear DRIs, and agendas spanning product developments, policy horizon scanning, issue position formation, and advocacy strategy.
