Head of Mobile, Square

2 weeks ago


Oakland, California, United States Block Full time

Company Description
Since we opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely - and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take a payment and never miss a sale, we saw sellers stymied by disparate, outmoded products and tools that wouldn't work together. So we expanded into software and started building integrated, omnichannel solutions - to help sellers sell online, manage inventory, run a busy kitchen, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. And across it all, we've embedded financial services tools at the point of sale, so merchants can access a business loan and manage their cash flow all in one place.
Today, we're a partner to sellers of all sizes - large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex commerce operations, sellers just starting out, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our seller's scale, so do our solutions. We all grow together.
There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We're building a business that is big, meaningful, and lasting. And we are helping sellers around the world do the same.
Job Description
As the Head of Mobile at Square you will lead our expansive mobile efforts, encompassing the development and refinement of iOS and Android applications as well as Square's embedded operating system (based on Android Open Source) for our Square Terminal and Register devices.

You will:

  • Lead a team of 400+ software engineers and engineering managers.
  • Lead the strategic planning and execution of mobile and Square's in-house devices development projects.
  • Drive the integration of advanced mobile technologies and custom hardware solutions into Square's product lineup.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align mobile development with company objectives.
  • Foster a culture of innovation, excellence, and accountability within the mobile org.


Qualifications

  • 15+ years relevant software development experience, with a deeper focus in mobile.
  • 10+ years of experience leading scaled engineering teams.
  • Demonstrated experience building and driving execution for design-focused and business-critical mobile applications to a diverse and complex user base
