About the role
Who we are About Stripe 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 Organization The Core Infrastructure organization operates the foundational systems that power Stripe globally — including databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL), high availability and disaster recovery (HADR), AWS cloud infrastructure, Linux servers, container orchestration, mesh networking, service discovery, and network edge infrastructure. Within Core Infra, the Regional Enablement Platform (REP) team helps Stripe launch and operate new regions without learning about broken dependencies from users. REP builds the regionalization, validation, deploy-safety, and operator tooling needed to answer practical launch-readiness questions: can critical payment paths run from the new region, which services still depend on a remote control plane, what breaks under packet loss or failover, and what must be fixed before deploys, launches, traffic shifts, or failovers proceed. The team uses traffic replay, synthetics, failover drills, dependency analysis, CI/CD gates, and incident data to turn those findings into platform fixes, service-owner asks, and reusable readiness checks across networking, HADR, and service teams. This role is based in Bangalore and serves as a senior technical anchor for Core Infrastructure in India, with direct cross-region influence across AMER, EU, and APAC. What you'll do As a Staff Engineer on REP, you will play a key leadership role in enabling Stripe's infrastructure to power all of our products, globally and at scale. You will decide how Stripe validates that a new region can safely take traffic and continue working through network loss, failover, and deploy changes. You will define the checks that must pass before launch or failover, build validation systems that replay real production paths against regional infrastructure, and turn those checks into CI/CD gates, operator workflows, and concrete fixes for service or platform owners. You will also help build Core Infrastructure's senior technical bench in Bangalore through design review, mentoring, and cross-region technical leadership. Responsibilities • Define evidence-based readiness criteria for regional launches, traffic migrations, and failovers — replacing manual checklists with repeatable, globally consistent patterns • Proactively identify and mitigate risks on critical payment paths; use system data to drive ownership and validate that platform mitigations measurably reduce impact • Lead end-to-end cross-functional delivery for new-region infrastructure, including safe service behaviors for remote control planes • Build reusable validation tooling that accelerates infrastructure integration for new acquisitions and reduces high-priority blockers • Convert recurring operational friction into scalable platform capabilities used across teams • Lead technical conversations and define decision mechanisms across Core Infrastructure and product teams • Develop and communicate a multi-year technical strategy for REP with clearly defined quarterly milestones and success metrics • Debug production issues across services and levels of the stack • Mentor and grow senior engineers, elevating technical planning, design standards, and cross-region execution from Bangalore • Collaborate effectively in a global, distributed envir
