• We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply.

This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
Responsibilities
• You’ll be joining a highly creative team that spans the gamut of creative execution, from digital experiences (like interactive games or live-streaming a handbuilt, miniature city) to physical activations (like retrofitting CRT monitors or retired MTA ticketing machines) and beyond. The work is highly experimental, idea-driven, and very collaborative. • The work starts with ideas. Your ability to generate original and interesting concepts is foundational, as is your ability to find the right form for them and bring them to life, both with your own hands and through close collaboration with people across a wide range of disciplines. • Be an adamant maker that is genuinely curious, experimental, and loves to tinker, iterate quickly, and innovate on ideas, narrative, and making beautiful things • Creative vision: Design execution and quality of ideas work in equal partnership • Collaborate with like-minded creative people who have radically different skill sets and together create ideas that envision an optimistic, progressive future • Help shape the strategic vision for design that pushes the boundaries of the brand and build awareness for what we do and why it’s important to Stripe • Partner widely with cross-functional teams to build upon great ideas through making things • Give and solicit feedback from wide range of teammates, agency partners, and stakeholders • Generate original, conceptually strong ideas from ambiguous briefs, strategic problems, cultural observations, and emerging opportunities • Determine the right form for an idea, then direct multidisciplinary collaborators to bring it to life across a wide range of mediums • Develop clear creative narratives, pitches, references, treatments, and prototypes that make an idea compelling before its final execution is known
