Staff Product Manager, ConnectActive

The opportunity

This is a chance to define a foundational product area at Stripe. You will turn a fast-changing set of user and product needs into durable platform primitives that work across products, industries, and geographies.

What you'll do

  • Bring the next generation of Connect accounts to life. Own key product areas: within the account platform, translating strategy into a focused roadmap, crisp product decisions, and high-quality launches.

  • Build from use cases. Start with the real problems platforms face, such as: onboarding a new seller, supporting a complex business model, or evolving a user's financial capabilities, and then work towards the primitives needed to solve them well.

  • Make sophisticated infrastructure feel simple. Partner with engineering and: design to create API and product experiences that are powerful and intuitive.

  • See around corners. Develop a strong point of view on how AI will change: platform economics, participant models, and financial workflows. Make focused foundational investments that unlock the next wave of demand.

  • Turn user signals into durable product investments. Work closely with users,: Sales, Partnerships, and other Stripe teams to distinguish bespoke requests from patterns that should become scalable platform capabilities, connecting business needs, user needs, and platform evolution.

  • Drive high-velocity, high-craft execution and own outcomes. Lead: cross-functional work from discovery through launch, and hold yourself accountable for developer experience, platform adoption, user value, and business impact, not simply features shipped.

What they're looking for

  • You are a product builder who can move easily between a user’s hardest: problem, the business opportunity behind it, and the product decisions needed to solve it.
  • You have worked on technically complex products: such as APIs, developer tools, shared platform capabilities, or core product experiences - but you do not build tech/platform for its own sake. You see strong platform design as a way to help users move faster, create better products, and unlock new business models.
  • You are opinionated, thoughtful, and execution-oriented. You can focus a team: on the few decisions that matter most, create momentum in ambiguous situations, and ship products that raise the bar for both quality and impact.
  • + years of product management experience, with meaningful time owning: platform, API, or developer-facing products end to end
  • Demonstrated ability to own a product area end to end: setting strategy, driving execution, and measuring outcomes
  • Strong analytical instincts and comfort defining the measurement framework before you ship
  • Clear written communication and the ability to build alignment across functions and levels
  • Experience in payments, fintech, or financial infrastructure
