Who we are
- Bridge is Stripe’s fintech innovation hub focused on building a modern, stablecoin-powered cross-border payments network. We operate like a startup within Stripe: fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and product-obsessed, but with the backing of one of the most trusted names in fintech.
What you'll do
- Design, and implement Bridge’s security governance, risk and compliance roadmaps from first principles to production.
- Identify and tackle Bridge’s most important security risks quickly and pragmatically.
- Adopt Stripe’s programs, controls and processes where it makes sense, and find custom approaches where it doesn’t.
- Lead risk assessment, control design and testing for all Security and Technology Oversight globally.
- Reinforce engineering best practices around secure development and infrastructure.
- Ensure Bridge meets compliance and audit expectations as we scale to more regulated markets.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, product, and Stripe’s security org to move fast without compromising safety.

- Communicate clearly across technical and non-technical partners.
