About the team

The Solutions Architecture (SA) org aims to be a destination pre-sales organization of world-class technical sellers who set and raise the bar in our interactions with Stripe users. Our goal is to drive Stripe’s long-term revenue growth as trusted technical advisors to users and partners and reliable voice of the user to Stripe Product. The Solutions Architecture Strategic Programs team is a small, high-impact team within SA that partners with global SA leadership to design and deliver programs that address the org’s most strategic priorities (i.e. “Big Rocks”) and time-sensitive business challenges. Our team delivers efficiency and leverage to the SA org by designing programs that 1) reduce friction for SAs to deliver user impact and 2) scale best practices to drive the broadest possible global impact.

What you’ll do

As an SA program manager focused on Product Interlock, you’ll steer design, decision-making, and delivery on programs that establish the global SA org as a trusted advisor on Stripe’s solutions externally and a reliable Voice of Customer to Stripe Product teams internally. Within SA, you’ll focus on scaling the expertise and impact of our SA and Demo Engineering teams. Outside of SA, you’ll also collaborate closely with Stripe’s Product, Product Operations, Product Marketing, Field Marketing, and Developer Relations (Dev Rel) teams on joint workstreams that drive user impact.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate SA and Demo Eng participation in Stripe’s largest user-facing conferences

• Sessions and Tours

• Partner with Developer, SSMB, Enterprise, Partner, and Industries Marketing to define processes that scale SA thought leadership to external partners and users through webinars and whitepapers

• Partner with Field Marketing and Dev Rel to operationalize SA participation in industry conferences, Executive Briefing Centers, and Developer Meet-ups

• Partner with Product Operations to define and operationalize processes to embed SA expertise into various phases of Stripe’s product development cycle (e.g. Experimental Projects, private and public previews)

• Partner with Product Operations to synthesize SA user insights and product feedback to inform regular Product roadmap prioritization, planning, and review

• Partner with SA Enablement and Product SMEs to define and operationalize SA knowledge management best practices for deepening product expertise
