The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving. We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome. The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same. If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it.

Who we are 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 increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. 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 Brand Studio sits at the center of everything Stripe shows the world — from visual identity and brand systems to campaigns, events, digital experiences, and global marketing. The studio functions as a creative multiplier: setting the standards, building the systems, and producing the work that helps Stripe show up with intention and quality across every touchpoint. World-class creative output requires world-class operational infrastructure. Brand Operations is the function that makes Brand Studio's work possible at scale — not by managing the execution, but by architecting the conditions that enable it. That means shaping what enters the studio, ensuring clarity before a brief is written, and building the systems that allow creative directors and producers to focus on what they're here to do: create exceptional work. What you’ll do Most operations leaders are brought in to fix problems. We're looking for someone who prevents them — and designs the system in which prevention becomes the norm. The Head of Brand Operations exists upstream from creative execution. This role's job is to ensure the work entering Brand Studio is strategically aligned, clarified, prioritized, resourced, and fully prepared for delivery before it ever reaches a creative director or producer. It also means ensuring the company understands how to work with Brand Studio — what it takes to be a ready partner, and where a given initiative stands on the roadmap. When th

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 & role Stripe is looking for a senior operator and systems thinker to join the Central Strategy and Operations (S&O) team. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who is obsessed with how organizations actually work and who builds the infrastructure that makes Stripe faster, clearer, and more coordinated as it scales. Central S&O sits at the center of how Stripe runs as a company. This role specifically owns the machinery of company operations—the planning processes, operating rhythms, information architecture, and cross-functional systems that let the leadership team at Stripe make better decisions, faster. If you're the kind of person who looks at a broken process and immediately starts designing the system that replaces it—and who reaches for automation before asking for headcount—this role is for you. You'll work across the most senior leaders at Stripe and partner teams to design, run, and continuously improve the operational systems that connect strategy to execution. This is not a coordination or program management role. It's a build role. You'll own outcomes end-to-end and raise the operational ceiling of the company. What you’ll do Run planning for Stripe. You'll own and execute how Stripe does annual planning including multiple offshoot workstreams, and the frameworks leadership uses to make decisions.
