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. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. 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.\nAbout the team\nThe Internationalisation team builds the platform that helps Stripe products work naturally across languages and markets. We create and operate the infrastructure that enables Stripe teams to localize product interfaces, services, and written communications while delivering consistent, high-quality experiences to users around the world.\nWe work closely with our sister Localization team and its language experts, as well as with product and service engineering teams integrating localized content. Together, we combine engineering, automation, and linguistic expertise to help Stripe build products that feel native to each market.\nWhat you’ll do\nYou will design, implement, and maintain Stripe’s internationalisation platform at scale, including the developer and user experiences around it. You’ll help teams continuously localize their products while improving the quality, speed, reliability, and efficiency of Stripe’s localization processes.\nThis role combines backend and platform engineering with emerging LLM technology. Depending on the project, you may build end-to-end functionality for internal customers, evolve production LLM systems, develop quality-evaluation capabilities, improve platform reliability and observability, or lead migrations from legacy localization infrastructure.\nResponsibilities\nDesign and build internationalisation infrastructure that supports diverse content surfaces, including backend services, product interfaces, and written communications.\nIntegrate localization into Stripe’s software-development and content-production workflows, enabling teams to ship translated experiences continuously and safely.\nBuild and maintain integrations with translation-management systems, LLM services and external localization providers.\nEvolve Stripe’s existing production LLM capabilities to improve translation quality, market relevance, turnaround time, and operational efficiency.\nDevelop automated quality checks and human-evaluation workflows that combine LLM-driven automation with expert linguistic judgment.\nMaintain a high bar for reliability through effective testing, monitoring, alerting, and operational processes.\nOwn ambiguous, high-impact initiatives end to end-from research and experimentation through implementation, launch, measurement, and iteration.\nWho you are\nWe’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.\nMinimum requirements\nStrong coding skills in any programming language (we understand new languages can be learned on the job so our interview process is language agnostic)\nExperience developing reliable infrastructure, platform, or backend-service solutions.\nStrong product judgment and a commitment to building high-quality user and developer experiences.\nAbility to own ambiguous work end to end and make progress through research, experimentation, and iteration.\nStrong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative, cross-functional environment.\nPreferred qualifications\nExperience building or operating production LLM or machine-learning systems.\nExperience evaluating LLM output or combining automated systems with expert human review.\nFamiliarity with internationalisation, localization, translation, or content-management workflows.\nExperience with CI/CD systems, developer platforms, or workflow infrastructure.\nBackend engineering experience building services using programming languages such as Java, Ruby, or Go.\nExperience building internal platforms that ultimately support customer-facing products.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4230,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Payment Processing & Gateways"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-06T20:44:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.632,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":63,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-07T05:47:08Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/stripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/stripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-08T04:33:43Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":9842,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":64},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=64"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fstripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fstripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fstripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/stripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fstripe-backend-engineer-internationalisation"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3889593}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"stripe.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3889593},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
