About The Position

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. The Connect Platform is Stripe’s platform for businesses that serve other businesses. It gives platforms the infrastructure to represent the people and companies in their ecosystem, onboard and verify them, manage their accounts, accept payments, and pay them out - without building payments, compliance, or financial-services systems themselves. AI is accelerating the emergence of entirely new business models: global networks of creators and experts, AI-native marketplaces, and agent-driven products that change how people discover, buy, sell, and deliver services. The Connect Abstractions team owns the platform primitives that make these models possible. We are building the foundational abstractions for representing participants, onboarding them safely, configuring their capabilities, and managing their lifecycle on Stripe. This role is a chance to define a foundational product area at Stripe, turning a fast-changing set of user and product needs into durable platform primitives that work across products, industries, and geographies. The role combines high-leverage strategy with hands-on product execution, working through ambiguous, consequential questions. The outcome of your work will compound, as the abstractions you help create will be reused across Connect and Stripe, shaping what new products platforms can build and how quickly they can bring them to market. We are looking for an entrepreneurial Product Manager to build the platform experiences behind Connect's next generation of users. You will own critical product primitives that platforms, including the fastest-growing AI companies, use to onboard, configure, and manage their users on Stripe. You will turn a clear strategic direction into products that solve hard user problems today while creating a coherent, extensible foundation for business models that are still being invented. This role is for someone who enjoys the depth of platform work but is uncompromising about product craft and solving real user needs - both the ones users have today and will have in the future. The work is not building infra for its own sake; you will build capabilities that help our users launch a new marketplace, enable a global network to pay its contributors, or give a business entirely new ways for their end users to earn.

Requirements

• 7+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time owning platform, API, or developer-facing products end to end
• Demonstrated ability to own a product area end to end: setting strategy, driving execution, and measuring outcomes
• Strong analytical instincts and comfort defining the measurement framework before you ship
• Clear written communication and the ability to build alignment across functions and levels

Nice To Haves

• Experience in payments, fintech, or financial infrastructure
• Experience productizing bespoke or custom solutions into broadly available platform capabilities
• A track record of making well-judged foundational investments ahead of user demand

Responsibilities

• Bring the next generation of Connect accounts to life. Own key product areas within the account platform, translating strategy into a focused roadmap, crisp product decisions, and high-quality launches.
• Build from use cases. Start with the real problems platforms face, such as onboarding a new seller, supporting a complex business model, or evolving a user's financial capabilities, and then work towards the primitives needed to solve them well.
• Make sophisticated infrastructure feel simple. Partner with engineering and design to create API and product experiences that are powerful and intuitive.
• See around corners. Develop a strong point of view on how AI will change platform economics, participant models, and financial workflows. Make focused foundational investments that unlock the next wave of demand.
• Turn user signals into durable product investments. Work closely with users, Sales, Partnerships, and other Stripe teams to distinguish bespoke requests from patterns that should become scalable platform capabilities, connecting business needs, user needs, and platform evolution.
• Drive high-velocity, high-craft execution and own outcomes. Lead cross-functional work from discovery through launch, and hold yourself accountable for developer experience, platform adoption, user value, and business impact, not simply features shipped.
