Senior Software Engineer (Fullstack), Square Capital

  • Full-time
  • Alternate Location: New York, United States

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

Square’s rapidly growing financing platform, Square Capital, has revolutionized the way businesses obtain the funding needed to achieve their goals. Since the product launched in 2014, Square Capital has extended more than $9 billion of business loans to hundreds of thousands of sellers.

Now, Square Capital is building a new suite of financial products for our sellers. You will join a launching team to build an unreleased product that is expected to ship in Q2 2021. The new product will redefine the future of financial services for small businesses on Square.

  • Oversee the entirety of your features, including component design, implementation, automated testing, and roll-out.
  • Define and develop clear and secure APIs that integrate multiple web/app clients with servers.
  • Build well-designed, reliable and scalable fin-tech systems
