Who you are

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. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

  • 7+ years of program management experience in business strategy or customer support operations, preferably in social care, customer care, or executive-level escalation support
  • Demonstrated success in driving large-scale improvement initiatives and cross-functional collaboration
  • In-depth knowledge of social platforms, analytics tools, trends, and social care best practices
  • Exceptional communication skills with the ability to manage high-pressure situations and deliver compelling narratives to stakeholders
  • Strong problem-solving skills and customer-centric attitude, balancing short-term response with long-term operational strategy
  • Ability to effectively manage multiple tasks, prioritize in a fast-paced environment, and work autonomously

Preferred qualifications

  • Advanced knowledge of enterprise social media management platforms (e.g., Khoros, Sprinklr, Hootsuite, Sprout Social), including administrative management and configuration
  • Proven track record of generating innovative, user-focused content ideas and building user-to-user communities to enhance support and drive product adoption
  • Technical proficiency, including SQL, Tableau, API usage, and comfort with troubleshooting
  • Prior experience leading a frontline support operations team
  • Familiarity with the FinTech industry and demonstrated passion for learning new technical products and features

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.

The annual US base salary range for this role is $150,900 - $226,300. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
