That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career. About the team Our team owns open-source SDKs that reflect the Stripe API in seven different programming languages. A vast majority of server-side Stripe integrations are built using our open-source SDKs. Our team also owns an in-house code generation framework, which we use to generate not just the SDKs, but the code snippets in our documentation and the commands in Stripe Shell, which is an in-browser version of the Stripe CLI. We are dedicated to providing a world-class experience for developers using our SDKs. We influence how Stripe authors and releases APIs so that SDKs and documentation represent them in a user-friendly way. We want to collaborate with and help our friends in the Stripe community who build and maintain SDKs in programming languages that we don't support. What you’ll do In this role, you'll have an opportunity to shape the experience of developers using Stripe SDKs that power over 80% of the payment volume at Stripe.

Who we are About Privy Our mission is to make privacy and user ownership the default online. To do so, we build simple, flexible APIs and tools for developers that make it easy to build new products on crypto rails. Privy owns the abstractions and infrastructure layer above wallets, integrating across chains, third-party providers, and Stripe products like Treasury and Link. We get to solve hard technical problems while leveraging Stripe's distribution to reach customers like Ramp, Klarna, Deel, Kraken, Hyperliquid, and Fomo — powering experiences for both mainstream users and crypto natives. Learn more about Privy: Privy and Stripe: Bringing crypto to everyone About the team Engineering at Privy is distinguished by: High urgency: Shipping very small iterations, very fast, to learn very quickly.

In practice, we use boring technology like Node, React, and AWS so we can focus our engineering energy entirely on pushing the boundaries of Privy's core product, e.g. through hardware enclaves, multi-region low latency APIs, and blockchain abstractions that are accessible to mainstream developers. What you'll do Design and build the backend systems that power wallets, identity, and onchain infrastructure at scale Create platform primitives and APIs that enable teams across Privy and Stripe to build faster Lead complex technical initiatives across architecture, data, and distributed systems Improve the scalability, reliability, and performance of our core platform Help shape our technical direction through high-leverage engineering work Who you are Minimum requirements 8+ years of experience building and maintaining a production system at scale An understandin
