The opportunity
Stripe's Corporate Development M&A Integration team manages the lifecycle of acquisitions from close through steady state. We are a small but mighty team that operates as the hub connecting Stripe's functional groups (People, Finance, Legal, CorpTech, Sales, Marketing, GTM ops, and Product) with each acquired company.
What you'll do
Own program management of a major integration workstream end-to-end. Build: the plan, sequence dependencies, track functional commitments, surface risks early, and drive decisions to closure.
Develop the strategic judgment to articulate why a workstream should be: integrated and why now, including how to pace and sequence integration planning across the deal's lifecycle.
Manage peer-level relationships with functional DRIs across People, Finance,: Legal, CorpTech, GTM, and Product independently. You are Stripe's point of contact for your workstream. Your manager is not in those conversations with you.
Contribute to acquisition accountability metric reporting. Know what the: numbers say, recognize what's missing or off, and know when something needs to escalate.
Represent the integration team in cross-functional forums with a clear point: of view. Know when to push, when to hold, and when and how to escalate.
Ramp into new domains quickly. Each acquisition is different. Absorb context,: structure ambiguous situations into actionable plans, and identify gaps before anyone asks.
