## Description

About the role
====================

We're looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead our Agent Experience team. As a key member of our engineering organization, you will be responsible for scaling a mission-critical team from its early stages. You will balance deep technical strategy in the AI space with a relentless bias-for-action, ensuring we ship high-leverage tools for developers and their agents.

Responsibilities
---------------

* Lead and scale a high-performing team of 10+ engineers, ranging from early-career to Staff level.
* Define agentic strategy and partner with product and executive leadership to shape the long-term vision of how AI agents consume Stripe's APIs and services.
* Foster a 'bias-for-action' culture that allows the team to ship rapidly in an evolving market without sacrificing the reliability expected of financial infrastructure.
* Oversee the design and delivery of complex back-end systems and developer tools, ensuring they are extensible, secure, and intuitive for both humans and agents.
* Collaborate cross-functionally and act as a primary bridge between your team and Stripe's senior leadership, influencing company-wide strategy for AI integration and agentic workflows.

Requirements
------------

* 5+ years of engineering management experience, with a proven track record of managing and growing teams of 10+ engineers.
* Deep domain expertise in the Agentic AI space or a strong background in building sophisticated developer tools and back-end systems.
* Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to distill complex technical concepts into clear strategic frameworks for peers and executives.
* Experience in rapid-growth environments, specifically a history of successful, high-volume hiring and team scaling.
* Technical proficiency to engage deeply with Staff-level engineers on system architecture, API design, and AI model integration.

Preferred Qualifications
---------------------

* A 'dual-track' career history with experience in both early-stage startups and high-growth, at-scale technology companies.
* Experience navigating high-stakes, regulated industries such as Fintech or Healthcare.
* A strong point of view on the future of AI-driven economies and the 'agentic' evolution of software.
