Network Solution Specialist

About the team Support teams at Stripe provide integration guidance and assistance based on a deep understanding of Stripe products. Support specialists interact with both developers and non-technical stakeholders to identify the root cause of payment-blocking issues, answer questions, and advise users on how to get the most out of Stripe infrastructure. Stripe Terminal helps our users extend their online presence to the physical world. The Terminal team's mission is to make it as easy for businesses to accept in-person payments as the Stripe API has done for online payments. With Terminal, businesses can unlock in-person payment use cases that are right for their business model—whether it's creating a superb retail experience, extending their website to a pop-up store, or enabling a mobile point-of-sale at their next event. What you'll do We're building a team of support specialists who will work with the largest and most complex Stripe Terminal users.
