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.

Restaurants today operate in an increasingly dynamic landscape, and we're building a modern product ecosystem to support this. The Restaurants team at Square empowers Food & Drink businesses of all kinds to start, run, and grow their businesses through advanced workflows, specialized products, business insights, and inclusion in the greater Square ecosystem. In everything we build, we focus on efficiency, automation, and reliability: themes of paramount importance in a fast-paced environment where great hospitality is key.

We are looking for an experienced engineering manager to lead a product development team focused on growth and onboarding, helping restaurant owners and managers get started on Square for Restaurants and growing their use of the full platform. This team focuses on improving our customers' experience from raising awareness of Square's offerings, through product choice and evaluation, to configuration and integration across the ecosystem. 

Working with the Growth product manager, you will define the product strategy and roadmap, conceive and execute on growth experiments, and work closely with our Data Science, Marketing, and Engineering teams. Our approach is both customer-focused and data-driven, meaning you will need to dig in deeply to understand our customers and be adept at analyzing the metrics to derive where gains (large and small) can be created.

As part of this role you will:

• Lead a full-stack team of 6-7 web engineers
• Grow and develop your team through hiring, coaching, and team leadership. You will have a strong start, with a starting team of amazing engineers and a growth-oriented culture

• Closely collaborate with design, product management, data science, and marketing partners to define goals in a scientific and rigorous manner and reach them together.
• Foster an environment that enables the team to execute quickly while maintaining a high standard for quality

You are:

• Experienced in coaching and developing engineers through senior levels, and growing engineering teams through hiring and career development 
• Focused on the customer, and naturally apply that focus at all times to product definition, design, engineering, and operations
• Prepared to support your team with engineering insight as well as people leadership. You will be called upon to advise engineers on design and process; represent your engineering team to leadership and partners; and ensure excellent technical output from your team
• Eager to collaborate closely with cross-functional partners and peer EMs, as partners with shared goals and openness to each others' ideas

Technologies that will be used by your team:

• Web development in Ember.js
• Server-side development, primarily in Java in a Square service stack
• Mobile development on Android (Kotlin) and iOS (Swift)
• Thorough automated testing on all stacks (unit, integration, and snapshot, as appropriate)
