Frontend Engineer, Stripe Tax

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.

About the team

Collecting and filing sales & indirect taxes is a classic area for technology disruption. Companies selling across countries, states, and even smaller jurisdictions have to navigate through a myriad of tax rates, product-level tax exemptions, filing requirements, and registration obligations. The rules are constantly changing, and not accurately calculating and filing tax can have legal ramifications.

It’s no surprise then that solving for tax compliance is a top user ask. We launched Stripe Tax as a new SaaS product in 2021 to help solve this pain point and make tax compliance as effortless as possible. The Stripe Tax Growth team is entirely Europe-based and focuses on the user- and merchant-facing Stripe Tax product, with a focus on the calculations component of Stripe Tax. It’s still early days, and we’re looking for strong software engineers to help build our product and business.

About Stripe Barcelona

This is an exciting opportunity to join the team as we build up our presence in Barcelona. Please be aware that this role currently requires you to come to the office once a week. In the near future, the work model will shift to a hybrid arrangement, with a 50% remote and 50% in-office presence in Barcelona, Spain.

What you’ll do

As an engineer on the Stripe Tax team, you will have the opportunity to work on one of Stripe’s newest products. Stripe Tax launched recently, in June 2021, so we’re still in our early days, which means ample opportunity for impact and growth.

As a frontend engineer on the team, you will build and expand consumer-focused UIs and full-stack products, working with other engineers to build delightful features, as well as working with our sales and operations teams to understand and solve our users’ pain points.

Despite being a frontend-focused engineer, when needed you do not shy away from jumping at the opportunity to work directly on the code that powers the frontend APIs to ensure reliable and efficient user interface delivery.
