About the team

Stripe’s Global Product Strategy & Operations team is a small, high impact team. We help run the Global product organization, which is responsible for helping Stripe and our users expand globally. Our team works cross functionally within the Global Product and across most of Stripe’s teams. We develop the long-term strategic plan for Global, drive an operating model that allows the Global organization to operate at scale, and design and incubate high impact 0→1 initiatives. Whatever it is, we work on what will move the needle most for Stripe.

• Work on cross-cutting company strategy projects and collaborate with teams to implement changes;
• Partner directly with senior leaders and cross functional teams to accelerate progress, solve hard scaling initiatives, and incubate new programs;
• Drive analysis and research to help inform our overall strategy and make the right growth decisions for global products, including local payment methods;

• Help shape the product roadmap for the Stripe’s APAC business through robust gathering of competitive intelligence, user insights, and data analysis;
• Advise Product, Engineering, GTM & cross-functional leadership teams on where resources should be deployed to maximize long-term strategic value;
• Partner with Finance to drive planning processes, including investment decisions, strategy updates, operational plans, and OKRs; and
• Maintain a pulse on the financial health of the APAC business, highlighting key metrics and trends and developing action plans to drive improvements.
