Software engineering internship at Stripe in Bengaluru, where interns own real production projects end to end with support from a manager and teammates.

This Bengaluru internship was posted on 10 July 2026 and was still open when we checked on 30 October 2026. The listing stresses that interns operate as real members of their team: writing software that ships to production, joining technical design discussions, and giving and receiving feedback through code review.

About Stripe

Per its listing, Stripe builds programmable financial infrastructure used by more than 10 million businesses, processing trillions of dollars a year. The company describes itself as a place for ambitious, curious and rigorous people, and names recent intern projects that reached production systems. Learn more on Stripe's website.

The role in plain terms

This is a working internship, not a shadowing program. The listing names recent intern projects - expanding Stripe's Payments Foundation Model for anomaly detection, building fraud controls, creating safer payouts, and improving merchant checkout setup - which gives a fair picture of the scope interns actually touch. The listing is also direct that the program is competitive and expectations are high.

What the employer asks for

These responsibilities and minimum requirements are quoted or closely condensed from the employer's listing so the details are not distorted. Responsibilities:

Operate as a real member of the team you join; engage in team discussions, decisions, and the technical design process.
Write software that will be used in production, and has meaningful impact to Stripe's business and users.
Give and receive technical feedback through code reviews or design discussions.
Collaborate with other engineers and cross-functional stakeholders to proactively seek and incorporate feedback.
Learn quickly by asking great questions, working with your intern manager and teammates effectively, communicating the status of your work clearly, and building with the latest AI tooling.

Minimum requirements, quoted from the listing:

A strong fundamental understanding of computer science through pursuit of a Bachelor's or Master's degree in computer science, math, or a related discipline.
Experience and familiarity with programming, either through side projects or classwork. We work mostly in Ruby, Java, Javascript, Go, and Scala. We believe new programming languages can be learned if the fundamentals and general knowledge are present.
Experience from previous internships or other multi-person projects, including open source contributions, that demonstrate evaluating and receiving feedback from mentors, peers, and stakeholders.
Ability to learn unfamiliar systems and form an understanding of those systems, through independent research and working with a mentor or subject matter experts.
Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate development while applying rigorous critical thinking and professional judgement to review, refine, and validate all outputs.

The preferred qualifications add at least one year of university education (or equivalent experience), specialized knowledge in one area balanced with general skills, experience writing well-tested pull requests, familiarity with new code bases in multiple languages, and clear written communication.

Who this role suits

Students partway through a CS, math or related degree who already have some collaborative coding experience - a prior internship, open source, or substantial team projects. If you have never worked on code with other people, build that first; the listing asks for it explicitly.

Practical notes

Stripe internship interviews typically focus on fundamentals and on how you work with others: expect to walk through a project where you took feedback and changed direction. Because the listing highlights AI tooling, be prepared to discuss how you use it critically rather than blindly.

Pay context for this role

Stripe's own posting does not state pay - Stripe says it does not yet publish pay ranges in every country. Job aggregator Talentd lists the current Stripe Software Engineer Intern opening in Bengaluru at Rs 67,000 to Rs 1,00,000 a month; an earlier Stripe intern listing that closed in September 2026 was listed at Rs 92,000 to Rs 1,00,000 a month (listings seen 30 October 2026). These figures come from the aggregator's own listing data, not from the employer, so treat them as unverified estimates and confirm the actual stipend in the interview or offer letter.

How to apply
