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.
About the team
Data Quality and Governance owns the infrastructure that makes Stripe's data trustworthy and findable - the Data Catalog, the Knowledge Graph Service, dataset tiering and governance standards, lineage tracking, and the quality scoring system (DQPD) that every engineering team reports against. They're the team that defines what "good data" means at Stripe and then builds the enforcement and measurement tools to drive adoption across the company.

An inquisitive nature in diving into data inconsistencies to pinpoint issues, and resolve deep rooted data quality issues
Knowledge of a backend development language (such as Scala, Java, or Go) and strong SQL experience
Extreme customer focus, with a commitment to partnering with product, leaders across the business, and other Stripe engineers to understand their use cases
Effective cross-functional collaboration, with the ability to think rigorously, communicate clearly, and make or coordinate difficult decisions and trade-offs
