Square
Sr. Product Manager, Payment Enablement
Square, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
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 Platform is an open, global financial services platform for sellers and developers who serve our sellers. It provides the necessary components to manage identity, process payments across multiple channels, hold and transfer funds, and provide accounting, reconciliation, and reporting in a secure and compliant way.
We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Identity Platform team. We're responsible for ensuring that we know who we're doing business with when onboarding (and if needed, offboarding) sellers to payment products and methods. Sellers and developers rely on this platform to keep track of the sensitive details of their business, to manage who can make changes, and to make it painless to stay within the bounds of the law regardless of how their business evolves.
The Payment Enablement product has the mission to allow all types of sellers to enable financially regulated products by providing solutions for Square to centrally manage financial capability enablement while ensuring that all regulatory, risk, and partnership requirements are met. We protect the business, but bias towards enablement and inclusivity over exclusion and gatekeeping.
