About the team
Stripe’s Professional Services team works with our most strategic users, delivering excellence and enabling our users to succeed with Stripe. The new Forward Deployed Engineering team takes the evolution of our consulting services behind the keyboard by directly building and delivering software for our users.

What you’ll do
In this role, you will work closely with Stripe’s Product & Engineering team to help shape the features that extend beyond what’s possible out of the box with Stripe integrations. You may be building standalone applications that are deployed in user environments, developing priority features within Stripe's ecosystem, or augmenting existing development staff for our users to deliver faster and more resilient connections to Stripe.
While maintenance is part of the work, you'll often be starting new and exciting projects. Since this is a new team at Stripe, you'll succeed if you get excited about driving direction and taking ownership of your work.
