Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. 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.
Public Goods at Stripe is focused on catalyzing products or services that would improve the world but don’t exist because the commercial motivations aren’t yet sufficient. By characterizing these goods, and altering the incentives, we hope to bring them to market faster. Our two main initiatives—Frontier, a $1.8B advanced market commitment to accelerate carbon removal, and Intercept, an effort to accelerate the elimination of respiratory infections—are partnerships between Stripe and some of the world’s most ambitious organisations, including Google, Anthropic, the OpenAI Foundation, and J.P. Morgan.
Stripe is looking for an entrepreneurial netizen to lead communications for our Public Goods programs. The success of Frontier and Intercept will be contingent on building strong networks of support and cooperation in the communities where they operate (researchers, scientists, technologists, healthcare). We’ll need to persuade people and organisations to change course: labs changing their research paths; entrepreneurs quitting their jobs to start something new; funders reprioritising their grant programs. You’ll laser in on the influential voices, and build targeted strategies to shift opinions and behaviours using traditional media, podcasts, video, substackers, influencers, events, and Twitter. You’ll craft compelling messaging on world-altering technologies; announce billions of dollars worth of grants and investments; publish opinionated editorial designed to inflect research fields; build communities of superfans; and manage coalitions of the world’s biggest companies and philanthropic organizations. If we’re successful, you’ll be instrumental in reducing CO2 in the atmosphere, ending respiratory infections, and whatever else comes next.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
