Designer, Web Presence & Platform

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

Web Presence & Platform (WPP) is organized into two pillars—Platform and Presence. The Platform pillar builds internal systems, tooling, and infrastructure to support the web. The Presence pillar owns the public-facing storytelling across stripe.com and link.com—including our homepage, product landing pages, industry and solutions pages, and other high-impact go-to-market surfaces. Together, we shape how millions of people understand what Stripe is and what it can do for them.

What it asks for · 7

• 5–7 years of relevant design experience, ideally in web, product marketing, or brand contexts
• A strong portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual craft, systems thinking, and the ability to lead complex, multi-faceted design work independently
• Proven ability to own projects end-to-end and deep fluency in layout, typography, color, motion, and interaction
• Comfort navigating ambiguity: you can generate a clear plan from a loose brief and bring partners along with you
• Strong communication skills: you articulate your thinking clearly, manage expectations proactively, and reduce confusion rather than add to it
• Proficiency in Figma, experience working within component-based design systems, and fluency with AI design tools and workflows
• Experience designing for CMS-driven websites with modular, scalable systems

Also a plus

• Experience designing event or campaign-driven marketing experiences (conferences, product launches, brand moments)
• Familiarity with designing for financial products or developer audiences, where clarity and trust are design requirements
• Fluency with front-end development workflows—you can collaborate meaningfully with engineers on what's possible and what's right
• Experience designing for international audiences, multilingual surfaces, or accessibility requirements
• Experience owning or contributing to design across multiple distinct web properties or brand identities simultaneously
• A track record of advancing shared design patterns, systems, or tooling—not just using them

What the job covers

• Own the end-to-end design of your focus areas, Link and Bridge, from early strategy through final delivery, with minimal oversight
• Drive clarity in ambiguous or loosely defined briefs by synthesizing user needs, business goals, and technical constraints into a coherent point of view
• Lead cross-functional collaboration with engineering, PMM, content design, brand, and product—facilitating alignment, integrating feedback, and keeping projects moving
• Partner deeply with engineering throughout the design process, from exploring technical possibilities and constraints early, to co-creating solutions at the intersection of craft and code, and ensuring design intent carries through to final implementation
• Develop and advance design systems, patterns, and components specific to your surfaces, ensuring they are extensible and maintainable at scale
• Apply and evolve visual and interaction standards that uphold the quality bar across diverse surface types—from immersive event experiences to conversion-focused product pages • Use research insights, user testing, and performance data to ground your decisions and advocate for the user across partner conversations
• Actively contribute to team quality, sharing your expertise, setting an example in critique, and helping raise the standard of work across the Presence team
