[Hiring] Forward Deployed AI Accelerator, Marketing @Stripe

Role Description

As a Forward Deployed AI Accelerator, you'll be embedded with a group of approximately 20 marketers organized by functional team, shared workflow, or location. You'll build alongside them, and you'll help them fundamentally change how they operate. Your measure of success is the number of workflows you've permanently transformed and the extent to which those in your group start any task with an AI tool.

Responsibilities

• Identify and document the highest-leverage workflow transformations within your group's day-to-day work by deeply understanding their processes and outputs.
• Build custom tools, agents, automations, and skills tailored to each marketer's specific responsibilities.
• Coach and partner with each marketer through a progressive journey — from awareness, to first win, to regular AI integration, to full workflow transformation, to self-sufficiency.
• Teach marketers to build and iterate on their own tools over time, creating independence.
• Recognize patterns across your cohort and systematically scale what works — a tool built for one marketer will be reusable for their peers.
• Document every tool, playbook, and transformation pattern you build so the entire FDA team uses each other's work.
• Share wins visibly within your cohort and with leadership to build momentum, inspire, and celebrate success.
• Track individual and cohort progress rigorously against a defined maturity model, moving every marketer toward self-sustaining, AI-first work.
• Prepare marketers for an agentic future — not just prompt writing, but designing, building, and overseeing autonomous, multi-agent workflows.

Qualifications

• You've used AI to fundamentally change how you work — not as a novelty, but as your default operating mode.
• You are a deep AI practitioner. You build agents, automations, and tools fluently.
• You are an outstanding coach and communicator, meeting people wherever they are.
• You understand marketing work, either through direct experience or by quickly learning the workflows, deliverables, tools, and pressures of your assigned group.
• You are a pattern recognizer, thinking in systems rather than one-off solutions.
• You are high-caliber, persistent, and versatile, succeeding in many roles at Stripe.
• You bias toward action and speed, preferring to show working proof-of-concept rather than presenting theoretical possibilities.
• You are comfortable with ambiguity and evolution, thriving in a new team building a new operating model.

Requirements

• 5+ years of professional experience in a role requiring diagnostic thinking, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration.
• Demonstrated, hands-on experience building AI-powered tools, agents, automations, or workflows that transformed real work processes.
• Track record of coaching, teaching, or enabling others with evidence that people you've helped actually changed how they work.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
• Comfort working across multiple workstreams and relationships simultaneously.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in marketing, marketing operations, growth, or a closely adjacent function.
• Proficiency with AI development tools and platforms (e.g., Claude, Claude Code, Codex, custom agent frameworks, API integrations, workflow automation tools).
• Experience with change management, organizational transformation, or large-scale enablement programs.
• Familiarity with marketing technology stacks (e.g., Marketo, Salesforce, analytics platforms, content management tools).
• Experience building and scaling internal tools, templates, or playbooks that were adopted beyond your immediate team.
• Background in consulting, solutions engineering, technical account management, or other client-facing technical roles.
