About the role

You'll be the bridge between Product Marketing and the demos our field and marketing teams put in front of customers. You'll take product positioning and messaging and turn it into demo-ready narratives, then use AI-assisted tooling to get them built. You'll track product launches so our demos stay current, scope Executive Briefing Center (EBC) demos with Solutions Architects and the EBC team, curate and update our demo library, and act as the primary liaison for event content with Product Marketing. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 3+ years in a technical, customer-facing, or product role such as solutions engineering, sales engineering, technical product marketing, developer relations, or software engineering
  • Deep technical product fluency: you can explain how APIs and products fit together and judge what can be demoed reliably
  • Strong storytelling and written communication, you can turn a positioning doc into a narrative a customer will remember
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex) to prototype and build software
  • Strong judgment and taste about what matters to a customer audience, from developers to executives
  • Comfortable owning projects end to end across Product Marketing, Solutions Architects, Product, Design, and Engineering
More about this role

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.

Demo Engineering shows customers how Stripe works instead of just telling them. AI has made demos faster to build, which raises the bar on everything around the build: picking the right story, scoping it to what a customer needs to see, and keeping it current as Stripe ships. We're looking for technically fluent storytellers who know Stripe's products deeply and can turn positioning into demos that land in our most visible customer moments.
