Product Manager, Terminal Developer Experiences

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

Almost every Terminal experience starts with a developer building the integration. The Developer Experiences team owns that work: the SDKs, APIs, integration primitives, documentation, and example apps that developers—and, increasingly, AI agents—use to build on Terminal. In this role, you’ll own how developers and agents integrate in-person payments with Stripe, from making their first test charge to running their integrations at scale in production.

What it asks for · 5

• 5+ years of product management experience or equivalent experience, with a track record of shipping products that solve real user problems.
• Technical expertise gained by building and owning developer-facing products such as APIs, SDKs, or developer tools.
• A track record of driving execution across cross-functional teams within an established product vision and strategy.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make complex concepts accessible and structure ambiguous problems from first principles.
• Comfort working across many functions, stakeholders, and subject-matter experts and engaging in healthy, respectful debate in pursuit of shared goals.

Also a plus

• Experience with mobile SDKs, including iOS or Android, or cross-platform frameworks such as React Native.
• Experience with payments, in-person commerce, or hardware-adjacent products.
• Experience building for AI agents or developing agentic tooling.
• Experience building and launching zero-to-one products.
• A hands-on approach: you test-drive integrations yourself and improve the documentation before shipping functionality.

What the job covers

• Own the roadmap and execution for Terminal’s developer experience within the team’s strategy: break the roadmap into milestones, define requirements, prioritize work, and drive delivery through sprint planning while making the tradeoffs required by a broad surface area.
• Talk regularly with external developers, platforms, and internal Stripe teams to validate ideas, requirements, and prototypes and turn what you learn into better developer experiences.
• Partner with engineering and design to ship functionality that delights developers building on Terminal, balancing impact against engineering cost and delivering measurable results.
• Own the integration primitives developers depend on—including connection tokens, integration authentication, device attestation, and connectivity—to ensure that developers can build secure, reliable in-person payment experiences consistently across every SDK and platform.
• Set the direction for integrations at scale, from server-driven integration and reusable example apps to agentic tooling that allows AI agents to build and test safely, and maintain a high bar for Terminal’s documentation and accessibility.
• Use data to form a point of view, set success metrics, and determine whether changes are working.
• Communicate decisions and status to stakeholders and use your technical judgment to help the team make tradeoff decisions.
