Who we are

About Stripe & Link

At Stripe, we’ve spent the last 15 years building financial infrastructure for the internet, serving millions of people and businesses worldwide. Our flagship consumer product, Link, makes online payments and digital transactions effortless and secure—the digital wallet for what’s next.

This is a unique opportunity to continue building a standalone brand within the Stripe ecosystem and introduce it to new global audiences. You’ll play a key role in making payments more personal and convenient while doing some of the most impactful work of your career.

About the team

Sitting within Stripe Brand Studio, the Link brand team has a distinctive consumer lens, focusing on how Link looks and sounds as it scales to meet meteoric product growth. We build, evolve, and maintain a versatile, forward-looking visual identity system and find clear, fresh ways to apply it across surfaces. The brand designers on our team are multidisciplinary: they design robust visual systems, lead art direction, and craft surfaces that prioritize brand and product storytelling.

Working with cross-functional teams across Stripe and external partners, we raise the quality and consistency of Link experiences—IRL, online, and everywhere between. We set the creative vision and strategy for diverse projects and audiences, and amplify that work across mediums, channels, objects, environments, and both digital and physical touchpoints.
