Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Stripe as an employer.

What you need

  • 6+ years in engineering across a wide range of products
  • 3+ years of experience as a Golang software engineer
  • An interest in working with multiple programming languages
  • A passion for API design and developer experience

Nice to have

  • Experience in PHP and Ruby
  • Experience building libraries and/or SDKs
  • Knowledge of Open API spec and protobuf

Worth weighing

  • No salary listed
  • Focus on open-source SDKs may imply a collaborative but potentially less structured environment
  • Role requires strong expertise in Golang and Node.js, which may limit exposure to other technologies
