Stripe · Chicago, IL · 2 wk ago
Project Management$142k–$212k/yrFull-time

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

You’ll join the Customer Advocacy and Programs team, a small, high-impact team inside Customer Success that amplifies the voice of the customer and turns feedback into measurable change. We synthesize customer input and frontline insights to surface the highest-value opportunities, then partner with Product, GTM, Support, Operations, and technical teams to turn those opportunities into durable tools, programs, and improvements. Our mission is to help Stripe’s user-facing teams deliver more strategic, effective, and scalable experiences for users. We build the capabilities that help Customer Success Managers and the broader field better understand users, identify opportunities, and deliver value, while extending Customer Success impact beyond named coverage. We are establishing a more unified approach to Customer Success tooling and efficiency, with product discipline from problem discovery through adoption and measurable impact.

Responsibilities

  • Own the roadmap: Set and prioritize the Customer Success Efficiency and Scale roadmap, balancing user needs, business impact, feasibility, and organizational priorities.
  • Discover and define problems: Partner with Customer Success Managers, Sales, and other user-facing teams to identify pain points, validate opportunities, and determine where tooling, automation, AI, or self-service can create leverage.
  • Shape solutions: Translate validated needs into clear product briefs, requirements, success metrics, and launch plans. Partner with technical teams to deliver scalable solutions.
  • Drive delivery and adoption: Coordinate cross-functional execution, manage dependencies and trade-offs, and ensure each launch has a clear enablement, measurement, and iteration plan.
  • Scale Customer Success (CS) impact: Build tools, assets, and programmatic motions that help Sales and other teams deliver CS-caliber value where dedicated CSM coverage is not available.

Requirements

We'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.

  • 5+ years of experience in product management, program management with substantial product ownership, business operations, consulting, or a related field.
  • Experience leading products, platforms, workflows, or customer-facing solutions from discovery and prioritization through launch, adoption, and iteration.
  • Strong product sense and user empathy, with the ability to turn ambiguous qualitative and quantitative inputs into clear strategy and requirements.
  • A track record of leading complex, cross-functional work across technical, operational, and go-to-market teams.
  • Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills, including the ability to evaluate trade-offs and design scalable solutions.
  • Excellent communication and influence skills, with the ability to create clarity and drive alignment across frontline teams and senior leaders.
  • High degree of comfort with AI tools.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building internal tools, automation, AI-enabled workflows, or self-service experiences for customer-facing or go-to-market teams.
  • Experience partnering with engineering, data, analytics, or AI teams to scope and deliver technical solutions.
  • Experience developing multi-quarter roadmaps that balance quick wins with longer-term foundational investments.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $141,600 - $212,400. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

  • Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
