Summary from the posting
The Proactive Threat team is responsible for identifying vulnerabilities and security weaknesses across Stripe's systems, applications, networks, and cloud infrastructure , before adversaries do. We operate as a hybrid offensive function: conducting penetration testing, emulating real-world threat actors through red team operations, and partnering closely with our defensive security teams to validate detection capabilities and improve Stripe's overall security posture.
We are builders first. Our team develops custom tooling, automation frameworks, and internal platforms that scale our offensive capabilities and enable repeatable, high-fidelity assessments.
This is a short summary. The full description, requirements and the application form are on Stripe's own career page.
