# Edward Dal Santo > Engineering at Stripe Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/edwarddalsanto I'm a passionate Software Engineer with a thirst for learning and building intuitive, reliable, scalable products. I've been a contributor and leader in Stripe's Banking-as-a-Service org for over 5 years now. In my spare time, I delve in to exercise, side projects, reading, films, family, friends, hiking, and travel. And most recently, and importantly, I had my first child and could not be more stoked. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ Stripe Jan 2019 – Present | New York City Metropolitan Area In Nov 2023, I transitioned to Stripe Capital, which provides businesses with access to financing. For over 4 years before that, I worked on Stripe Issuing, which provides an API and Dashboard for instantly creating virtual and physical cards. These cards allow one to control expenses, reduce operational burden, and expand new lines of business.
