Stripe Internships 2026 in Ireland
Stripe invites students and recent graduates across all education levels to apply for its emerging-talent programme in Ireland. This competitive initiative spans internships, apprenticeships, and early-career roles, offering participants the chance to work on technology and products shaping how money moves and businesses grow. Most openings sit within engineering teams, though Stripe also hosts interns in machine learning, data science, and other business functions.
What the Programme Offers
Selected interns receive structured onboarding and dedicated mentorship. Stripe assigns each intern a manager accountable for their development and a mentor to help them navigate the role. The company describes a community of curious and rigorous people where interns hold genuine agency to pursue meaningful work and influence decisions across teams.
Interns work across large portions of Stripe’s stack on projects addressing urgent business needs. Stripe states that intern work will likely ship to real businesses, meaning projects carry practical outcomes rather than purely academic scope. This hands-on approach ensures participants contribute directly to products used worldwide.

- Engineering
- Product

Academic performance matters, and Stripe factors GPA into its review process. The company also recruits from schools with a history of strong performance. Exceptional candidates from varied backgrounds receive consideration, as Stripe values education as one demonstration of ability rather than the only route.
