[Hiring] Product Manager @Stripe

Role Description

We're hiring a deeply technical product manager to own the platform strategy, drive cross-company modernization initiatives, and set the standard for frontend excellence at Stripe.

Responsibilities:

• Own the product strategy and roadmap for Stripe's frontend platform.
• Drive the largest frontend modernization initiative at Stripe while holding the line on architectural quality.
• Redefine frontend development with agentic tooling.
• Define and track key metrics such as latency, build times, and reliability SLOs to make difficult trade-off decisions.
• Be the product voice in deeply technical decisions such as API surface design, framework deprecation sequencing, extraction boundaries, and migration tooling.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of product management experience, with at least 2 years on platform, infrastructure, or developer tools teams.
• Strong technical fluency in frontend web development—you discuss JavaScript and TypeScript, React component models, build systems, and performance optimization with depth.
• Experience driving large-scale migrations or platform transitions across multiple teams, including the sequencing, dependency management, and stakeholder alignment that make them succeed.
• Demonstrated use of quantitative metrics to drive platform investment decisions—you've defined the metrics, not just tracked them.
• Track record of partnering with engineering to make architectural trade-offs grounded in user impact.

Requirements

• Engineering background—you've written frontend code professionally and it still shapes how you think about product decisions.
• Led or significantly contributed to a legacy extraction or monolith decomposition effort and understand viscerally why they're hard and where they get stuck.
• Believe that fast software is the best software.
• Naturally default to the platform solution over the one-off fix, but know when speed demands the opposite.
• Explain what a cascading re-render is, why it matters, and what to do about it—to an engineer, a designer, and a VP, in three different ways.
