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

The Design team works across most projects at Stripe—from our brand standards to campaigns, events, digital products, and even printed publications. And since Stripe’s main audience is other people who build products, we agonize over and take pride in crafting user-friendly and user-focused experiences.

The Brand Design team lays the foundations that help Stripe accelerate. We do this by creating, evolving, and maintaining Stripe’s high-quality, versatile, and forward-looking visual identity design system. We sweat the details. We make it seem effortless.

Our team—and our design efforts—are multipliers for Stripe and Stripes. Our focus on principles, systems, and standards makes it easier for all Stripes to get work done—at a high quality bar, while still creating space for evolution and innovation. Collaborating with other teams at Stripe, as well as select external partners, we raise the quality and consistency of interactions with the Stripe brand.

Brand Designers at Stripe demonstrate passion for great design and for expanding, evolving, defining, and documenting flexible design systems that achieve bar-raising quality and consistency for the brand at scale. They are user focused, have a strong understanding of the business, and are empathetic and inspiring team leaders. The ideal candidate excels across a variety of styles, crisply articulates design decisions, iterates quickly, and collaborates seamlessly with marketers, producers, leaders, other designers, and agency partners.

What you'll do

Stripe is building one of the world's most important companies, and the way we show up creatively in the world matters. As a Senior Designer, Brand Advertising, you'll sit at the center of that work, concepting and crafting campaigns that earn attention, build brand equity, and reflect Stripe's ambition. You'll work day-to-day within the Advertising team while staying in close partnership with the Stripe Identity team, making sure every campaign is rooted in who Stripe is and where the brand is going.

This is a role for someone who thinks in campaigns and executes with craft, equally comfortable generating a big idea and sweating the details of how it comes to life across every channel. This is a high-impact, high-ownership position where you will help define what advertising and campaigns can be and feel like, with craft and beauty.
