What you'll do

As a Procurement Operations and Transformation PgM, you'll combine deep process thinking, analytical rigor, and hands-on technical capability to fundamentally improve how Stripe's global procurement organization operates. You'll diagnose workflow inefficiencies, design better operating models, and build or deploy AI-powered tools that make those improvements permanent and scalable. Embedded directly within Procurement teams - Strategic Sourcing, Third Party Risk, Contracting, Procurement Operations, etc. - you'll be equally comfortable whiteboarding a process map, pulling and interpreting operational data, and shipping an automation that removes manual work for good. Your measure of success is the number of workflows you've permanently transformed and the extent to which those in your global team start any task with an AI tool.
Responsibilities
• Identify and document the highest-leverage workflow transformations within your group's day-to-day work by understanding their processes and outputs
• Build and maintain a structured backlog of workflow improvement opportunities, using data and stakeholder input to sequence work effectively
• Build and deploy AI-powered tools, automations, and intelligent workflows that eliminate manual effort and enhance procurement capabilities, including autonomous agents, data products, and integrations with Stripe's procurement tech stack
• Work across Procurement Enablement and partner teams to uncover AI use cases, document requirements, and translate complex procurement workflows into scalable technical solutions
• Coach and partner across Procurement through a progressive journey: from awareness, to first win, to regular AI integration, to full workflow transformation, to self-sufficiency
• Develop operating models, SOPs, and process documentation that make improved ways of working repeatable and scalable
• Teach Procurement SMEs not just to use AI tools, but to design, build, and oversee their own automated workflows over time

• Track record of coaching, teaching, or enabling others - formally or informally - with evidence that people you've helped changed how they work
• Familiarity with process improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, process mapping, etc.) or structured consulting frameworks
Preferred qualifications
