About Stripe
Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses.

Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead.

Product Sales are deep functional and technical specialists who lead and advise on Stripe's most strategic and complex deals. We have a variety of open roles across the Link organization, including building a new team to focus on banking. This team sits at the intersection of Stripe's highest-leverage growth areas: the Link consumer network, Financial Connections, Optimized Checkout Suite, and alternative payment methods including bank payments and BNPLs. Selling them together is a materially stronger proposition than selling any alone - and this role owns that combined motion across top enterprise segments in key verticals.
