Company Description

We started with a simple idea—that everyone should be able to accept credit cards—and we’ve been rethinking buying and selling ever since.

For sellers, we’re creating one cohesive service to run your entire business, from a register in your pocket to analytics on your laptop. For buyers, we’re making it faster to order from the businesses you love and more fun to pay your friends back.

Buying and selling sound like simple things—and they should be. Somewhere along the way, they got complicated. We’re working hard to make commerce easy for everyone.

Job Description

Square’s rapidly growing small business financing product, Square Capital, has revolutionized the way businesses obtain the capital needed to accomplish their goals. Unlike traditional financing products, Square Capital offers are extended to pre-qualified sellers with no application process, funds are deposited as soon as the next business day, and repayment happens as a fixed percentage of daily card sales. Since the product launched in 2014, Square Capital has already extended more than $400 million to tens of thousands of Square sellers - and we’re just getting started.

As a software engineer on Square Capital's Investor Experience team, you will help us build a scalable, secure, and full-featured platform that makes investing in Square Capital easy. Our investor platform spans the stack, from a web-based investor portal on the front-end to data-crunching jobs and millions of dollars in money transfers on the back-end. If you have a passion for the intersection between finance and technology, and a dedication to precision and detail in software design and development, we want to work with you!

Qualifications

You will:

  • Work closely with our product and investor relations teams to design and build a beautiful and functional investor portal
  • Orchestrate the reliable, secure, and accurate movement of millions of dollars per day to and from our investors
  • Scale our investor platform to serve hundreds or thousands of investors
  • Build reporting and analytics features that operate over massive amounts of data, while maintaining high performance and absolute accuracy
  • Design fault tolerant systems so the team can be brave and move fast, without ever negatively impacting our customers.

You have:

  • Interest in working full-stack, from optimizing database transactions to building distributed systems and frontend web applications.
  • Passion for building products that are beautiful outside and inside – from their user experience to their robust and elegant design.
  • Strong software development skills and computer science fundamentals.
