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\nStripe is looking for a senior product strategist-operator to support the Risk team. Risk is central to Stripe’s ability to grow safely: the team protects Stripe and our users while enabling durable, responsible growth. In this role, you will have a front-row seat to high-stakes business and product decisions and a direct hand in helping the team identify emerging risks, prioritize the right interventions, and deliver measurable outcomes. If you are a technical strategist who moves quickly, brings clarity to ambiguity, and stays with difficult problems through resolution, we’d love to hear from you.\nYou will partner closely with Risk leaders and cross-functional teams across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Finance, Operations, and Strategy. You will create strategic clarity around Risk’s performance, connect business and product signals, pressure-test plans, and mobilize teams when results are off track. The role combines rigorous analysis with hands-on execution: you will not only identify where Stripe should act, but also help drive the work required to change the trajectory.\nWe are looking for someone who can connect risk signals, data, financial performance, user impact, and product and business strategy. You can find the signal in the noise, form a clear point of view, and either address the problem directly or convene the right people to solve it quickly.\nWhat you’ll do\nIn this role, you will work across Risk and Stripe’s technical and user-facing teams to improve decision-making, strengthen execution, and help Stripe manage risk while serving users well.\nResponsibilities\nOwn the signal: Define and maintain the metrics that matter for Risk’s in-year performance, spanning risk outcomes, business impact, operational health, and user experience. Build a disciplined “morning read”-a curated, high-signal view that surfaces emerging issues and drives timely action beyond standard dashboarding.\nLead deep-dive interventions: Run focused “surge” efforts to diagnose and unblock critical goals at risk. Move from symptom to root cause, align teams on the response, and stay engaged until the trajectory has measurably improved.\nBridge Risk, Product, and Strategy: Translate long-horizon company and risk theses into in-year priorities and operating plans. Decompose ambiguous opportunities and threats that cut across Product, Risk, Operations, and go-to-market teams into structured workstreams with clear owners and outcomes.\nSynthesize for leadership: Anticipate the questions senior leaders will ask and prepare clear, decision-oriented materials that turn complex and unstructured risk signals into diagnoses, options, and recommended actions.\nPressure-test assumptions: Work closely with Risk, Corporate Strategy, Product, and Finance to test whether plans reflect external market dynamics, changing risk patterns, user needs, and Stripe’s execution capacity. Identify gaps early and help teams adapt.\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\n12+ years of experience in product strategy, business operations, data analytics, product management, or strategic business performance roles, ideally in high-growth technology companies\nExperience in product strategy, product management, or GM-style roles with direct ownership of a P&L or a specific business outcome\nDeeply curious about business models and data, probing into signals, understanding trends and customer usage patterns to uncover novel insights\nA proven track record of directly driving business growth through analytical insights and execution\nDemonstrated ability to apply AI to improve decision-making and operational efficiency, with sound judgment about when and how to use AI tools without sacrificing rigor or quality\nStrong product sense and the ability to understand the technical mechanics of how software products are built and scaled\nExperience navigating ambiguous, cross-functional problems and leading high-stakes interventions with senior stakeholders\nPrior experience with fintech products or complex financial systems is a plus, but not required\nExperience facilitating senior leadership and stakeholder discussions that lead to clear decisions and action on business performance\nPreferred qualifications\nExperience in risk, payments, financial services, or fintech\nAbility to build trust and partner with senior leaders and CXOs\nTechnical proficiency in SQL / Python / R and data analysis; ability to self-serve and perform independent deep-dives into complex datasets\nExperience developing creative solutions and influencing the roadmaps of cross-functional teams\nAbility to anticipate how product launches, policy changes, and go-to-market activity affect risk outcomes, user experience, and support operations","description_format":"text","description_chars":5477,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":12,"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":"2026-09-14T21:02:27Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 319 · green card filings: 110","filings_12m":319,"filings_prev_12m":318,"green_card_filings_12m":110,"median_offered_wage_usd":168770,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-03T21:08:04+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":60,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.603,"p_room":1,"age_days":21,"expected_fill_days":65,"reasons":["conf:1","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-06T05:45:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/stripe-strategy-operations-risk","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/stripe-strategy-operations-risk.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-07T02:10:32Z","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","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3577,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":1423,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-08T00:00:00Z"}},"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-strategy-operations-risk"},{"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-strategy-operations-risk"},{"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-strategy-operations-risk"},{"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-strategy-operations-risk\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fstripe-strategy-operations-risk"}]}
