Brand Studio team works on a variety of brand-centric projects for Stripe, from our brand standards to campaigns, events, IRL experiences, packaging, digital products, and even printed publications. The brand designers on this team are multidisciplinary in nature, able to design robust visual systems, art direction, and craft surfaces that focus on brand and product storytelling.
Collaborating with other teams at Stripe, as well as external partners, we raise the quality and consistency of experiences with the Stripe brand IRL, virtually, and everywhere in between. We craft the creative vision and strategy for different types of projects and audiences, and amplify them across various mediums, channels, objects to environments, and digital and physical experiences.
About Stripe Creative Lab
Stripe Creative Lab aims to create breakthrough, culturally resonant, and exquisitely crafted projects that reveal Stripe’s magic in surprising ways. We dedicate ourselves to meticulously crafting the work to ensure the highest possible creative quality. The work is experimental, often starts with ambiguous briefs and requires finding a way where others might deem it impossible. We are making it up as we go, and that’s the way we love to work.
You’ll be joining a highly creative team working across digital experiences, interactive projects, physical installations, experimental technology, and whatever else an idea might require. The work often begins without an obvious technical solution and sometimes without knowing exactly what form the final project should take.
As a Design Engineer, you’ll work closely with designers, art directors, and producers to figure out what’s possible, prototype ideas quickly, and turn ambitious creative concepts into working experiences. You’ll bring deep technical expertise in at least one area of creative engineering, alongside the curiosity and technical range to work confidently beyond it.
A significant amount of our work lives on the internet, so you should be comfortable independently building and shipping highly crafted digital experiences. Other projects may involve hardware, physical computing, unusual displays, installations, or technical systems we haven’t encountered before. You won’t be expected to be an expert in everything, but you should be excited to learn, experiment, and know when to bring in specialists.
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
