About the role

About Stripe 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.

• Build and maintain AI tools the Copy Desk team can use in the editing process, as well as self-serve tools that marketers can use upstream from bringing content to Copy Desk for review. This requires no technical skills. You'll use our existing internal platform for this.
