About the team
The Financial Crimes & Supportability (FCS) team at Stripe exists to help protect Stripe and its users from crime. Our people play an important role in combating financial crime across a global footprint and in enabling Stripe to increase the GDP of the internet. The global team works as a cohesive whole to manage and mitigate financial crime risks and meet and exceed the expectations of our users, our financial partners, and our regulators. We are a deeply caring group of folks, slightly obsessed with our tradecraft, dedicated to protecting our users and the financial ecosystem from crime, and committed to our work, our lives, and our hobbies with equal passion.
What you’ll do
Help us protect Stripe and its users from crime by providing support through Global FCS Governance across Global FCS and compliance officers, while collaborating closely with Product Compliance and Engineering and Product team.
We are looking for an experienced financial crime professional to be a critical contributor to our FCS team. In this role, you will lead the oversight and management of product launch on behalf of the FCS organization, including delivery of key aspects of the financial crimes compliance program while playing an instrumental role in helping to scale Stripe’s AML/CFT & Sanctions programs across multiple regulated entities. You’ll also be heavily involved in the strategic design, planning and advisory related to new Stripe products and product enhancements as we continue to scale while also enhancing our controls.
We are looking for a candidate who is eager to tackle challenging problems with a collaborative and solutions oriented approach. The successful candidate will be someone who can leverage their compliance and/or financial crimes knowledge, as well as project management skills, to drive innovative solutions to mitigate financial crimes risk while fostering Stripe’s rapid product growth.
Stripe is both a technology company and a financial services company, and you will need to be comfortable straddling both of those worlds every day. The right person for the role will enjoy dealing with that puzzle, seeking creative solutions and moving quickly, often in the face of ambiguity.
