Stripe
is hiring
Staff Data Analyst
About Our Company
Stripe builds programmable financial services. 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. Headquartered in San Francisco and Dublin, the company aims to increase the GDP of the internet.
Job Description & Responsibilities
We are looking for an experienced data analyst to drive the data strategy for our risk as a product offering. Define the metrics, data products, and analytical frameworks needed as Stripe brings risk capabilities to platforms and connected accounts at scale. Partner with Product, Engineering, and Risk leadership to ensure data investments align with the product roadmap. You will design metrics, pipelines, and data products that serve as the analytical backbone for risk decisioning.
You will own the definition, reliability, and visibility of our most important risk metrics. Establish a canonical set of north star and operational metrics and ensure they are trustworthy, well-documented, and consistently surfaced to the right audiences. Build and maintain the infrastructure that keeps these metrics accurate as our data and product landscape evolves, including clear ownership, alerting on regressions, and scalable pipelines that reduce the cost of keeping insights current.
You will also own and evolve Stripe's risk experimentation strategy by defining what we test, how we measure, and how we learn. Ensure we can rigorously evaluate the impact of changes to risk policies, merchant journeys, and risk models across diverse merchant populations.
Finally, you will mentor and raise the bar for the Data Analysts on the team. Set technical and strategic standards. Guide junior and senior analysts on how to frame ambiguous problems, structure analyses for maximum impact, and communicate findings to senior stakeholders.
Requirements
Minimum requirements:
10+ years in Data Analytics, Data Science, or related roles
Track record of defining and driving data strategy across multiple teams — not just executing on a roadmap, but shaping it
Experience designing experimentation frameworks or measurement strategies for complex, multi-variant systems (e.g., risk policies, pricing, marketplace dynamics)
Deep expertise in SQL; proficiency in Python
Strong ability to translate ambiguous business problems into structured analytical approaches and communicate findings to executive stakeholders
Experience building and scaling data products (metrics frameworks, pipelines, dashboards) that become operational infrastructure, not one-off analyses
Demonstrated ability to influence without authority across engineering, product, and business teams
Proficiency with AI tools to accelerate model development, analysis and coding
Preferred qualifications:
Master’s degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Engineering, or a related technical field
Experience in risk, trust & safety, or related domains and understanding of risk in the Fintech space
Experience building data for platform/product offerings where data is part of the product surface, not just internal analytics
Familiarity with causal inference and A/B testing in non-standard environments (e.g., where randomization is constrained by risk considerations)
