What you’ll do
We’re hiring a Staff Full Stack Engineer to lead the design and delivery of new consumer capabilities in Link. The ideal candidate will combine technical depth across the stack with a strong product sense. In this role, you will take ambiguous product opportunities, create ways to validate them early, and ultimately ship complete products.
This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with broad technical and organizational scope. You will own large, cross-functional projects from early product and technical definition through launch and iteration; lead teams of engineers through complex execution; and partner closely with the many Stripe systems and teams that provide new capabilities. You will work across the stack, building services and APIs as well as user interfaces. You will make the architectural decisions that balance a high quality bar with the need to move fast and iterate quickly.
Responsibilities
- Define and drive technical strategy across Link Consumer, connecting near-term product delivery to a cohesive, durable engineering vision.
- Lead large, ambiguous 0→1 initiatives from problem definition and architecture through implementation, safe launch, and iteration.
- Design, build, and maintain polished user experiences, reliable backend services, APIs, and systems.
- Identify technical risks, dependencies, and foundational investments early, creating incremental plans that de-risk the roadmap and accelerate future work.
- Partner with engineering teams across Stripe, building alignment and influencing their roadmaps and priorities when Link Consumer depends on shared capabilities.
- Champion pragmatic solutions and code patterns throughout our codebase, setting standards in React/JavaScript/CSS/GraphQL as well as Ruby APIs and LLM-powered systems
- Ensure our UI and backend components are reliable, secure, extensible, and accessible
- Define operational processes and lead response to production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack, growing the learning and retrospective culture on our team and driving remediations that reduce risk
