Who we are About Stripe Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world's largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities.

That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career. About the team Stripe Terminal helps our users extend their online presence to the physical world. The Terminal team's mission is to make it as easy for businesses to accept in-person payments as the Stripe API has done for online payments. With Terminal, businesses can unlock in-person payments use cases that are right for their business model—whether it's creating a superb retail experience, extending their website to a pop-up store, or enabling a mobile point-of-sale at their next event. What you'll do We're looking for an experienced product manager to lead and shape the future of the software platform that powers the Stripe Terminal device portfolio.
