Product Manager, Square Invoices

  • Full-time

Company Description

We believe everyone should be able to participate and thrive in the economy. So we’re building tools that make commerce easier and more accessible to all. We started with a little white credit card reader but haven’t stopped there. Our new reader helps our sellers accept chip cards and NFC payments, and our Cash app lets people pay each other back instantly. We’re empowering the independent electrician to send invoices, setting up the favorite food truck with a delivery option, helping the ice cream shop pay its employees, and giving the burgeoning coffee chain capital for a second, third, and fourth location. Let’s shorten the distance between having an idea and making a living from it. We’re here to help sellers of all sizes start, run, and grow their business—and helping them grow their business is good business for everyone.

Job Description

 

We have an incredible team that is on a mission to make commerce easy for all types of businesses. Square Invoices focuses on helping our merchants create professional looking invoices so that they can get paid quickly from anywhere, at anytime.

In this role, you will also collaborate closely with designers, engineers, analysts, marketing, and other cross-functional team members within the organization to ensure that our product reaches customers and provides a remarkable, delightful experience. Thus, on any given day, your job may include identifying growth levers for the product, building new experiences, iterating on experiments, and planning or prioritizing initiatives. You should also be willing to take risks and push boundaries, trying anything and everything that helps drive Square Invoices’ long-term success!

You will:

  • Help shape and drive the strategy for Square Invoices

  • Prioritize a roadmap and champion for requests from outside the team

  • Work with our executive leadership team as well as leaders across product to grow our active seller base

  • Influence key stakeholders throughout Square in order to align resources and prioritization

Qualifications

You have:

  • 3+ years of experience in a product management role, ideally with a product during a product of hyper-scaling, that has served millions of customers, internationally.

  • Strong customer empathy and experience shaping product direction and execution based on customer needs

  • Comfort with data analytics and statistics to retrieve, manipulate, and visualize data as necessary in order to design effective experiments and use quantitative intuition to interpret results

  • Creativity, strategic thinking, and leadership skills

Ideal Candidates May Have:

  • Experience with building their own company or participating within a startup during a hyper-growth phase
