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
In this role, you'll be joining a small, focused team with a large mandate: enabling businesses and Stripes to extend Stripe Billing exactly to their needs.

We are in the early stages of building an extensibility platform for Stripe Billing and are working toward general availability. Our work unlocks enterprise customers with complex, bespoke billing requirements — directly contributing to Stripe's mission of increasing the GDP of the internet.

We collaborate closely with Billing domain teams and Stripe's Extensibility platform teams to identify and build high-leverage extension points across the billing engine
We have shipped at Stripe Sessions two years in a row — most recently launching five new extension capabilities along with script upload and observability tooling; you can explore our public docs at docs.stripe.com/extensibility
