About Stripe

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. 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.

About the team

Many of the largest companies in the world now rely on Stripe for payments infrastructure: Facebook, Google, Amazon, Shopify, Atlassian, Slack, Lyft, Uber, DoorDash, Instacart, and the list is growing every day. Many of these companies are expanding into Latin America and looking for a partner to help them accelerate their growth in their region. At the same time, startups and established players in Mexico, Brazil and other Latin American countries have seen tremendous growth in e-commerce and new business models and have aggressive growth plans. Stripe is well on its way to becoming a best-in-class software and infrastructure company serving the Latin American market, and we want you to help complete that transformation.
