Stripe is looking to solve the problem of scaling their massive monorepo beyond the limits of off-the-shelf enterprise solutions, requiring custom deep infrastructure engineering to ensure low latency and high reliability for their code storage platform.

Requirements

• 10+ years of professional experience writing high quality production level code or software programs, with a focus on systems programming, operating systems fundamentals, or storage infrastructure
• Experience building infrastructure-as-a-product with a strong focus on users needs.
• Deep expertise in Git internals, object formats, and packfiles, experience building custom Source Code Management (SCM) tooling, or experience scaling large monorepos on GitHub Enterprise Server/Cloud.
• Experience with file watching services like Watchman or deep familiarity with filesystem notification technologies and fundamentals.
• Deep expertise in C or C++ systems programming, particularly in the context of large-scale infrastructure or database internals.
• Proficiency with low-level profiling, tracing, and debugging tools (e.g., perf, eBPF, or reversible debuggers like rr) to diagnose complex performance issues.
• Experience working on the backend of complex systems such as web browsers (WebKit/Chromium), databases, or high-performance computing environments.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain innovative next-generation or first-generation versions of solutions and products, with an emphasis on reliability, scalability and usability.
• Define and design opinionated architectural strategies, policies, and abstractions that build a long term sustainable solution for internal Stripes, that will in turn enhance the experience of millions of Stripe users.
• Diagnose and resolve nebulous performance challenges within our core infrastructure, utilizing low-level profiling and systems programming to optimize everything from filesystem interactions to upstream Git internals.
• Apply distributed systems fundamentals to architect the next generation of our code storage platform, ensuring high availability and low latency as we migrate to a massive-scale monorepo environment.
• Collaborate nimbly with cross functional partners (PM), high-visibility teams and their stakeholders to support their key initiatives - navigating various types of organizational complexity with the support of your own leadership team.
• Partner with Engineering Management, Product Manager and key leaders across the company to create and drive toward the longer term vision
• Lead and manage a team of talented engineers on the team, providing technical mentorship, guidance, and support to ensure their success

Other

• BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent field
• Has strong collaboration and communication skills, and can comfortably interact with both technical and non-technical participants.
• Has the curiosity to continuously learn about new technologies and business processes.
• Is energized by delivering effective, user-first solutions through creative problem-solving and collaboration.
• Experience contributing performance patches to upstream open-source projects (Git, Linux, etc.) is a plus.
