Product Manager, Business Operations Platform

Full-time

Company Description

Square builds common business tools in unconventional ways so more people can start, run, and grow their businesses. When Square started, it was difficult and expensive (or just plain impossible) for some businesses to take credit cards. Square made credit card payments possible for all by turning a mobile phone into a credit card reader. Since then Square has been building an entire business toolkit of both hardware and software products including Square Capital, Square Terminal, Square Payroll, and more. We’re working to find new and better ways to help businesses succeed on their own terms—and we’re looking for people like you to help shape tomorrow at Square.

Job Description

From the inside, all of Square’s product services are organized into business units with their own product and engineering teams. Underneath, there’s a connected platform team that supports the network. We are that platform. Through various API technologies, we collect live data from across Square’s ecosystem and centralize it into a single-pane-of-glass view. On top of this centralization, we offer a suite of tools that power risk, compliance, customer success, and all other operational teams across the entire company. We enable product and engineering across the company to visualize how they connect into the bigger picture of Square and build solutions on the platform to optimize their operational responsibilities.
