Full Stack Engineer, Admin Platform

Stripe

Build the platform that powers internal tools at Stripe

Stripe Admin is an internal platform which is relied upon by Stripe employees globally for every part of their job: from talking with our users to launching a new feature. Admin is an integral part of how we move quickly in service of our users.

We believe Stripe employees deserve best-in-class tools and treat our fellow Stripes as power users. We make it easy for engineers at Stripe to quickly build high-quality, and secure-by-default internal tools using the same high standards that power external products like our Dashboard. 

We’re looking for a senior engineer with a strong interest in building secure-by-default and ergonomic developer libraries and frameworks. The ideal candidate will have a mix of technical expertise in building developer platforms, a passion for solving developer experience problems, and a pragmatic ability to ship results iteratively.

• Work with a team of technically sophisticated engineers who make developer experience their first priority.
• Own solutions from end to end, managing complexity and engaging directly with stakeholders to think through everything from success metrics, to the ergonomics of individual API’s.
• Use both qualitative and quantitative metrics to determine priorities and measure effectiveness.
• Contribute modular, well-tested code to create delightful user interfaces and resilient systems. We build on top of the same foundations that power Stripe's user facing products, and work mostly with Ruby, JavaScript (React/Redux), Flow, and GraphQL.
• Uphold Stripe’s high standards for engineering and product quality and mentor newer team members to do the same.

• Have at-least five years of industry front-end development experience, building, running, and debugging web applications using modern JS frameworks (React, Angular, etc.
• Take delight in crafting ergonomic and secure-by-default developer abstractions
• Hold yourself and others to a high bar when working with production systems
• Take pride in working on projects to successful completion involving a wide variety of technologies and systems.
• Thrive in a collaborative environment involving different stakeholders and subject matter experts

• Building reusable components that make it easier for engineers to build consistent and high quality user experiences across Stripe Admin.
• Building and improving the libraries and frameworks that power our front-end stack.
• Identifying and working on initiatives that could improve performance for the entire platform.
