About The Position

The Risk PMO team protects Stripe’s revenue and drives cross-functional strategy for company-level and org-level priorities. As Stripe operates across an increasingly complex and fast-moving global regulatory environment, one of our most important functions is ensuring that our largest, most strategic users can grow with us—compliantly, confidently, and at speed. We sit at the intersection of Legal, Compliance, Engineering, Product, Data Science, and GTM—serving as the bridge between teams coordinating massive programs with global, wide-reaching impact. We build durable systems that enable strong collaboration across functions and seamless experiences for our users. If you're energized by high-stakes, ambiguous problems and thrive on building programs from scratch in environments where the rules are still being written—we want to hear from you.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; a proven ability to distill highly complex, technical, or regulatory topics into clear, succinct, and persuasive narratives to external and senior audiences
• Deep experience designing, launching, and scaling complex cross-functional operating models, feedback loops, and PMO frameworks
• A high willingness to learn, adapt quickly to changing environments, and actively seek and act on feedback to continuously improve

• Prior experience working alongside Engineering, Product, Legal, Compliance, and GTM/Sales

• Serve as a trusted advisor by preparing strategic reviews for senior stakeholders and managing critical escalations
• Translate user friction into program evolution by establishing structured, data-driven approaches to gather user feedback and turning those insights into actionable product and operational improvements
