## Description

## Job Overview

As a Solutions Engineer on the AI Build team at Stripe, you'll work directly with frontier AI companies on the payments, billing, and monetization infrastructure underlying their core businesses.

## Responsibilities

- Own strategic proof-of-concept engagements end-to-end, from initial scoping through activation and handoff, combining customer discovery, solution design, rapid prototyping, and cross-functional leadership.

- Build with customers, working deeply with users' engineers and technical leaders to understand their workflows, rapidly prototype solutions, and establish credible paths to production.

- Design solutions that span multiple Stripe products and determine whether blockers require configuration, integration work, custom development, or a core product change.

- Close 0→1 gaps, navigating incomplete products, evolving requirements, and interoperability gaps while balancing immediate customer outcomes with reusable solutions.

- Influence the roadmap, translating customer needs and deployment friction into clear product requirements, and partnering with product and engineering teams to shape how Stripe's frontier products are built.

- Lead cross-functionally, coordinating AI account teams, AI and specialist Solutions Architects, product and engineering teams, Professional Services, and post-sales technical resources across the engagement lifecycle of new builds and deployments.

- Create repeatable patterns, turning successful customer-specific work into reusable prototypes, reference architectures, implementation playbooks, and solution components.

- Stay close to the AI frontier, operating at the pace and in the working style of AI-native companies, and remaining current on emerging companies, products, business models, and technical developments across the industry.

## Requirements

- 7+ years of relevant experience in customer-facing technical delivery, solutions engineering, implementation, technical product management, or a related field.

- Experience owning complex customer engagements from discovery and solution design through implementation or activation, including work across both pre- and post-sales phases.

- Demonstrated success in ambiguous, 0→1 environments where the standard product, integration, or implementation pattern did not yet exist.

- Strong understanding of APIs, integrations, application architecture, and data flows, with the judgment to distinguish implementation gaps from core product gaps.

- Ability to prototype rapidly using modern AI coding harnesses and development tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex.

- Working proficiency in one or more relevant languages, such as Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Ruby; depth in a particular language is less important than the ability to learn quickly and build credible prototypes.

- Ability to build trusted relationships with customer engineers, technical leaders, founders, and other senior stakeholders.

- Ability to lead through influence across sales, product, engineering, implementation, and post-sales teams while maintaining clear ownership of the customer outcome.

- Experience operating at startup speed and in Slack-first, rapidly changing environments, along with active engagement in the broader AI industry.
