Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead.

The Link Partnerships team sources, develops, and manages relationships with the payments ecosystem partners that power Link, Stripe's consumer wallet. Our team drives the growth and utility of Link by building partnerships with card networks, card issuers, local payment methods, crypto providers, and emerging commerce platforms. We execute on high-impact, cross-functional initiatives that expand Link's acceptance, improve performance, and enable new payment experiences—including agentic commerce. These partnerships have a significant impact on Stripe and the products used by millions of our users.
We're looking for a Partner Development Manager who builds and manages Link's payments partnerships with card networks, card issuers, local payment method providers, and crypto and stablecoin providers. You'll own the strategy and execution of partnerships that expand Link's payment capabilities, improve transaction performance, and position Link as the default payments layer for agentic commerce. You'll negotiate commercial agreements, drive technical integrations, and shape Link's payments roadmap in collaboration with these partners. As part of these efforts, you'll collaborate closely with cross-functional stakeholders, including Product, Engineering, Legal, Finance, Risk, and others. You'll also lead relationship management and partner closely with external partners' executive leadership.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
You're a skilled dealmaker and a strategist by nature. You understand how to work closely with Product and Engineering teams and can formulate partner strategies that drive tangible and measurable results. You're energized by the intersection of payments infrastructure and emerging commerce models, and you see the opportunity to define how payments work in an agentic world.
