In the posting’s own words

Public Goods at Stripe is focused on catalyzing products or services that would improve the world but don’t exist because the commercial motivations aren’t yet sufficient. By characterizing these goods, and altering the incentives, we hope to bring them to market faster. Our two main initiatives— Frontier , a $1.8B advanced market commitment to accelerate carbon removal, and Intercept , an effort to accelerate the elimination of respiratory infections—are partnerships between Stripe and some of the world’s most ambitious organisations, including Google, Anthropic, the OpenAI Foundation, and J.P. Morgan.

What it asks for · 5

  • Comfort with highly complex and technical subject matter; you don’t need to be a scientist yourself, but you will need to keep up with some very fast-moving ones on the team.
  • A superlative writer with a proven ability to translate complex, dense, technical information into compelling communications but which maximise fidelity.
  • High agency and autonomy: identifying gaps or risks, seeking out the context, and bringing fully formed ideas for leadership approval.
  • Experience in or around online movements which prize first-principles thinking, entrepreneurialism, and speed, like Silicon Valley, Progress, or Effective Altruism.
  • A strong intuition for how and why ideas spread, particularly on the internet.

Also a plus

  • Experience working with traditional media outlets is good, but not required.

What the job covers

  • ‘Full stack’ comms leadership for Intercept and Frontier, from strategy and narrative development right through to having great stories and content out in the world.
  • Crafting the Intercept narrative (largely from scratch, it’s very early!), and evolving the Frontier story for the next phase.
  • Designing novel communications strategies from first principles to get journalists, influencers, policymakers, and substackers excited about these programs.
  • Writing excellent communications (i.e. announcements, social media posts, or opinion pieces). Note: we are unusually obsessive about the quality of our writing!
  • Partner with experts and leaders in the Frontier and Intercept teams: soliciting their ideas and expertise to inform the strategy, preparing them for media or podcast appearances, and building their profiles among important audiences.
  • Build excellent relationships with our partners (both funders and portfolio companies and projects) in pursuit of carefully orchestrated communications across many stakeholders

How this page was made

An automated read of a public job posting, fetched August 25, 2026 and last changed by Stripe on August 18, 2026. Every list above is pulled from the posting’s own sentences — nothing rewritten, nothing added, no judgment about the role or the company.
