About The Team

The Transaction Risk team at Stripe is dedicated to optimizing the billions of dollars of transactions processed annually.

• Help debug and solve critical production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack.
• Uphold high engineering standards and elevate quality and engineering efficiency within our many codebases and processes.
• Collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders across the company to build new features at large-scale, while improving internal engineering standards, tooling, and processes.
