Designer, Web Presence & Platform

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.
Web Presence & Platform (WPP) is organized into two pillars—Platform and Presence. The Platform pillar builds internal systems, tooling, and infrastructure to support the web. The Presence pillar owns the public-facing storytelling across stripe.com and link.com—including our homepage, product landing pages, industry and solutions pages, and other high-impact go-to-market surfaces. Together, we shape how millions of people understand what Stripe is and what it can do for them.
Designers on the Presence team work at the intersection of craft and impact—balancing clarity, polish, and systems thinking with strategic storytelling and experimentation. We collaborate closely with engineering, marketing, content, and product to deliver work that is not only beautiful, but measurably moves the business.
As a Designer on the Presence team, you'll own design across two distinct and high-visibility surface areas—Link (the Stripe one-click checkout experience and link.com) and Bridge (bridge.xyz—the Stripe stablecoin financial infrastructure, operating as its own standalone web property). These are some of the most strategically varied and creatively demanding surfaces in our portfolio—each with its own audience, brand voice, and design challenge.
You'll operate with a high degree of autonomy—driving work from brief to launch, navigating ambiguity with confidence, and setting the quality bar for your focus areas. You'll shape the design systems and storytelling frameworks that make these surfaces scale, and you'll build deep expertise that makes you a go-to partner for the cross-functional teams you work alongside. This is a high-ownership role for a designer who is equally at home leading a complex project and sweating the details of a single layout.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
5–7 years of relevant design experience, ideally in web, product marketing, or brand contexts
A strong portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual craft, systems thinking, and the ability to lead complex, multi-faceted design work independently
Proven ability to own projects end-to-end and deep fluency in layout, typography, color, motion, and interaction
Comfort navigating ambiguity: you can generate a clear plan from a loose brief and bring partners along with you
Strong communication skills: you articulate your thinking clearly, manage expectations proactively, and reduce confusion rather than add to it
Proficiency in Figma, experience working within component-based design systems, and fluency with AI design tools and workflows
Experience designing for CMS-driven websites with modular, scalable systems
We care deeply about craft—but also about moving with urgency and focus. We seek feedback early and often, because we believe design gets stronger through collaboration and iteration. We keep our users front and center—whether that's a developer evaluating Stripe for the first time, a shopper encountering Link at checkout, or a fintech founder learning about Bridge. And we take pride in shipping work that is not only beautiful and precise, but that delivers clear, measurable impact.
We value curiosity, directness, and resilience. You'll do well here if you thrive in ownership, bring strong intuition without losing sight of the data, and are energized by complex problems that require both strategic clarity and exceptional craft.
