The Risk Partnerships team ensures Stripe’s products and services comply with financial partner requirements and manages ecosystem risk (such as portfolio fraud chargeback rates).

• Work cross-functionally with different engineering, product and business teams
• Communicate key findings to leadership and make recommendations around risk and product strategies
• Build and improve data ETL pipelines to collect new data and refine existing data sources

We’re looking for someone who has:

• 3+ years of data analysis experience
• Extensive experience and passion for metrics and dashboards visualizations
• Highly skilled at writing SQL to query relational databases; knowledge of Spark and R or Python is a plus
