About this role
Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses, seeking a Product Designer for their internal tools. The role involves owning the design process for internal tools that enhance developer productivity and collaboration, requiring close collaboration with engineering and product teams.
Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end design for a portfolio of internal tools—from discovery and problem framing through interaction design, prototyping, and implementation support
- Partner with engineering and product managers to define product requirements and translate them into clear, usable, and well-considered design solutions
- Conduct lightweight research and usability sessions with internal users to validate decisions and surface unmet needs
- Contribute to a consistent design language across our internal tools suite, working in close coordination with the Sail Design team and the Stripe design system
- Make design trade-offs confidently, knowing when to go deep on craft and when to ship a pragmatic solution that moves the product forward
- Help raise the bar for internal product design at Stripe, advocating for users who are often underserved compared to customer-facing surfaces
Requirements:
- 5+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates strong UX thinking, clear visual craft, and an ability to navigate ambiguity
- Experience designing tools for complex or data-heavy workflows—internal tools, developer tools, ops platforms, or similar are a strong plus
- Comfortable working across the full design process—you can lead discovery, write a problem brief, design and prototype, and ship without needing every step handed to you
- Strong systems thinker—you naturally look for patterns, reusable components, and structural solutions rather than one-off fixes
- Collaborative and direct communicator. You share work early, give and receive feedback well, and know how to align cross-functional stakeholders
- Proficient in Figma and comfortable working within or alongside a design system
- Experience designing for internal-facing or enterprise tooling environments
- You've contributed to a design system, or worked closely to a design systems team
- Exposure to information architecture challenges—navigation, search, and content modeling
- Background in or interest in developer tooling, ops platforms, or workflow automation
