Credit Risk Strategist, Risk Foundations at Stripe

This role is designed for a data-driven professional with 5+ years of experience in financial risk modeling. It’s an ideal fit for someone who has a "builder’s mindset" and is comfortable operating in highly technical environments—specifically those involving SQL and potentially Python. You should be someone who enjoys translating complex business tradeoffs into scalable technical specifications, bridging the gap between high-level strategy and backend execution. The most compelling aspect of this position is the high-leverage nature of the Risk Foundations team. You’ll be working on a fully remote basis within a small, impactful group that touches the entire user lifecycle. Stripe offers the rare opportunity to shape global financial infrastructure, where your decisions directly influence the company’s enterprise value and the safety of millions of businesses. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have strong quantitative skills and are proficient in SQL and data visualization. * Are comfortable shipping code and working closely with Engineering and Data Science to implement risk controls. * Can balance "risk vs. growth" by creating systems that protect the company without ruining the user experience. * Thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where you need to challenge industry norms.
