About Stripe 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 grow the GDP of the internet, and we won't stop until we've made it easy for any business anywhere to participate in the digital economy. About the role Governments around the world are fundamentally changing how businesses report and exchange transactions. Continuous Transaction Controls (CTC) and e-invoicing mandates — now active or imminent in France, Germany, Spain, Poland, and across Latin America — require businesses to transmit structured invoice data through certified government networks in real time. For Stripe's global user base, compliant e-invoicing is rapidly becoming a prerequisite for conducting commerce, not a nice-to-have. We're building the e-invoicing infrastructure that makes this invisible for Stripe users. That means embedding compliant invoice generation, validation, and transmission directly into Stripe Billing and Invoicing — abstracting the full complexity of regional mandates and network certification behind a seamless product experience. This is a high-impact, greenfield role.
