The Senior Frontend Software Engineer will build international product features, collaborating with teams to enhance seller experiences and ensure project quality.
The summary above was generated by AI
Since we opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely, and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take payments 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, offer buy now, pay later functionality, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. 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 in one place. Afterpay furthers our goal to provide omnichannel tools that unlock meaningful value and growth, enabling sellers to capture the next generation shopper, increase order sizes, and compete at a larger scale.
Today, we are a partner to sellers of all sizes - large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex operations, sellers just starting, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers grow, so do our solutions. There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We're building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.
The Role
The Square International Web & Server team is responsible for building locally remarkable product features for all non-US markets across all of Square's products. We're looking for engineers that are passionate about building exceptional product experiences and aren't afraid to jump into different parts of the codebase to solve important problems for our international sellers.
Recent projects on this team have included launching new pricing models in international markets, building global payment workflows for F&B sellers, enhancing tax automation in Canada, making onboarding improvements for our sellers in the EU, and building other market-specific features for our sellers.
You Will
  • Partner with Web, Platform, and Mobile engineers to build innovative new features for our International sellers.
  • Work closely with product managers and designers to define our seller experience and product scope.
  • Bring high proficiency in frontend and middle-tier development, taking responsibility for the successful delivery of projects, including planning, risk management, development, testing, rollout, and maintenance.
  • Hold yourself and your team to the highest standard of engineering excellence and prioritize quality over quantity.

You Have
  • 8+ years of industry experience, preferably with a B.S. or equivalent.
  • Proficiency in React, Javascript/Typescript, Ruby, or Java development using standard tools and frameworks.
  • A passion for building products at all levels - from the low level architectural decisions to the individual pixels and overall product experience.
  • An innate desire to build highly impactful products that our merchants will depend on every day to successfully run their business.

Technologies We Use and Teach
  • Javascript/Typescript, Ruby, and Java
  • Next.js and React web frameworks
  • Unit tests, integration tests, and E2E tests
  • HTTP, JSON, gRPC, and Protocol Buffers
  • MySQL
  • Amazon Web Services
  • Event driven architecture
