Product Designer, eCommerce - Site Design

  • Full-time
  • Alternate Location: San Francisco, United States

Company Description

Since we first 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 sellers 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 a Product Designer on the eCommerce team, you will guide design execution for Square's online shopping and ordering experiences. We are looking for craft in both UX and visual design. You will help build the customization tools and systems that help sellers to represent their brand online (website styling, layouts, documentation), while working within and evolving our Editor experience and functionality. You will contribute to our buyer-facing design system—a system of advanced design customization options for sellers. You will enhance the quality of how sellers build branded websites, and deliver seamless buyer experiences for their customers.

The eCommerce team offers a unique challenge that requires designers to solve for many products and platforms. Our online products are an important part of Square's ecosystem—in this role, you will contribute to Square Online product's design and approach on features that empower businesses and the people behind them.

  • You are passionate about creating inclusive, accessible products
  • You have experience creating systems, including layouts, typography, color, imagery, icons, and animations that bridge the brand identity, user experience, and business needs
