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 team People Strategy & Enablement (PS&E) bridges the gap between strategy and impact. We create clarity and momentum for People initiatives, partnering cross-functionally to design and run scalable programs and products that improve decisions, reduce friction, and support sustainable growth. By enabling operational excellence and alignment, we ensure the People team can move faster and with confidence. Our work spans five core areas: strategic planning and roadmap prioritization to ensure the People team focuses on the highest-value initiatives; pillar management to track health, risks, and progress of strategic initiatives with transparency and accountability; project management to provide the discipline and structure required to move initiatives across the finish line — from inception through delivery; design readiness and change management to prepare the organization to adopt and sustain new programs; and People operating rhythms to organize and facilitate planning cadences and forums that keep the organization aligned and moving. The role This is not a typical project management role. As Project Manager for People Operations Intake & Portfolio, you will own the systems, processes, and judgment layer that determines what the Partners, Operations & Insights (POI) organization works on — and in what order. You will be the connective tissue between the People team's ambitions and POI's capacity, serving as the first point of contact for all work requests flowing into POI's four core teams: People Solutions, People Data Analytics & Research (PDAR), People Partners, and Employee Relations & HR Compliance. You will build and run Stripe's POI intake and prioritization process end-to-end — from designing the intake experience for requestors, to triaging and evaluating incoming Jira tickets, to facilitating prioritization conversations with POI and People team leaders. As this function matures, you will expand into a broader portfolio intelligence role: the key strategic partner to all People team requestors, ensuring that the organization's most limited resource — team capacity — is always directed at the highest-priority work. Critically, you will also build an AI agent to power and scale this work. You will design, iterate on, and deploy an intelligent intake assistant that helps with automated scoping, duplicate request detection, time commitment estimation, resourcing recommendations, and prioritization guidance — upleveling the quality of every intake interaction across the org. What you'll do Own and operate the POI intake process end-to-end. Manage the Jira-based intake system, ensuring all incoming requests are triaged promptly, routed correctly, and tracked through their full lifecycle from submission to delivery. Serve as the primary intake partner for People team requestors. Act as a knowledgeable, approachable first point of contact who helps teams scope and frame requests well, setting clear expectations on timelines, effort, and likelihood of prioritization. Facilitate regular intake and portfolio cadences. Set cadence for POI Intake reviews, backlog grooming, and full roadmap reviews. Identify systemic patterns and surface insights to leadership. Synthesize trends across intake submissions to proactively flag capacity constraints, recurring themes, capability gaps, and emerging risks before they become blockers.. Apply strategic judgment to prioritize the POI portfolio. Evaluate incoming tickets against People team SOKRs, the 3-Year Plan (3YP), and establish prioritization frameworks. Build and maintain portfolio visibility and capacity reporting. Develop dashboards and reporting that give POI leadership and People team stakeholders real-time insight into resource allocation, queue depth, and roadmap health. Participate in quarterly business reviews and annual planning cycles. Design, build, and continuously improve an AI agent for intake. Create an intelligent agent that automates and enhances the intake experience, that ultimately can be deployed to reduce time-to-decision and improve requestor experience at scale. Continuously improve the intake experience. Build and maintain requestor-facing documentation, submission guides, communication templates, and onboarding materials that reduce friction and improve ticket quality at submission. Partner with POI leaders and People team leaders on resourcing and prioritization conversations. Prepare and present portfolio data and recommendations to senior stakeholders, facilitating trade-off discussions with rigor, objectivity, and a clear point of view. Who you are We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, we encourage you to apply. Preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement. Minimum requirements 7+ years of experience in project management, business operations, strategy, or consulting with experience navigating complex, matrixed organizations and managing competing priorities. Demonstrated experience designing, building, or significantly improving an intake, triage, or portfolio management process for a delivery team or operations function. Strong analytical and systems-thinking skills. Able to evaluate competing requests against strategic frameworks, make well-reasoned prioritization recommendations, and communicate trade-offs clearly to senior stakeholders. Proficiency in Jira or equivalent ticketing/project management tools. Comfortable with workflow configuration, ticket lifecycle management, capacity planning, and reporting. Proven experience using AI tools (LLMs, AI agents, or automation platforms) to streamline workflows, build lightweight productivity solutions, or automate repetitive operational tasks. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Able to translate ambiguous, incomplete requests into clear, actionable project briefs and present complex portfolio data accessibly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Proven ability to manage relationships with senior stakeholders (directors, VPs), including setting expectations, navigating pushback, and facilitating alignment conversations with confidence. Comfort operating in ambiguous environments where the work is not always well-defined. Able to independently identify the right approach and establish meaningful success metrics. Collaborative, low-ego working style. Able to operate as a strategic partner and trusted advisor rather than a decision-maker, earning credibility through rigor and good judgment. At least 2 years of experience working within or closely alongside an HR, People, or equivalent internal operations team. Preferred qualifications Hands-on experience building AI agents or automation workflows using no-code/low-code tooling. Experience with prompt engineering, RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) concepts, or designing human-in-the-loop workflows for AI-assisted processes. Background in portfolio management, demand management, or capacity planning, including experience with prioritization frameworks (RICE, WSJF, OKR-alignment scoring, or similar). Experience with change management frameworks (e.g., Prosci ADKAR® Model) and designing adoption strategies for new processes or tooling. Familiarity with HR systems (e.g., Workday, Greenhouse, Retool) and People team workflows. Experience building portfolio dashboards or capacity reports using tools like Tableau, Looker, Google Sheets, or similar. Experience building and deploying process documentation, requestor-facing guides, or enablement materials that improve submission quality and reduce intake friction. Familiarity with data privacy and compliance considerations relevant to employee data, particularly in the context of AI tools and automated workflows. Experience using AI tools to increase personal and team productivity. Advanced proficiency in Google Workspace (Sheets, Docs, Slides) and Mac OS. This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office). Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams. A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live. The annual US base salary range for this role is $127,600 - $191,400. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process. Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
