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.
Did you know that only around 4% of the world’s GDP comes from internet commerce? At Stripe, we believe that this represents a future with almost limitless potential for innovation, creativity and global prosperity. While the promise of a global online economy is palpable, it doesn’t come without significant risk. Each day, bad actors disrupt the trust and safety of the internet and increase the barrier of entry for online businesses. The Financial Crimes team ensures that our platform remains safe, that prohibited parties are not allowed to utilize our services, and that we identify bad actors engaging in money laundering or other financial crimes. Stripe is now looking for a leader to join its Financial Crimes Operations team. This role is directly responsible for growing and coaching financial crimes investigations teams across in Sanctions and will help Stripe detect and mitigate financial crimes risks.
As Stripe’s user base and global footprint grows dramatically, we are looking for passionate people and operations to help build teams in our new Stripe Delivery Center, a centralized operational hub of Stripes in Bangalore. We are looking for someone who is passionate about fighting financial crime, preferably within e-commerce or payments, and who possesses a deep understanding of AML and Sanctions risk mitigation techniques. This person will cultivate the engagement of their team members while guiding them to be the best they can be, through feedback, coaching, mentoring, and advocacy within the organization. This means helping to set team goals, and using metrics to efficiently measure and guide team performance in pursuit of those goals.
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. You will have a strong operations mindset, be passionate about people management, drive strong quality standards, and have deep expertise in financial crimes investigations and research techniques.
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.
