Senior Software Engineer - Developer Platform at Square

  (Posted Nov 3 2016)

About the company
We started with a simple ideaโ€”that everyone should be able to accept credit cardsโ€”and weโ€™ve been rethinking buying and selling ever since.

For sellers, weโ€™re creating one cohesive service to run your entire business, from a register in your pocket to analytics on your laptop. For buyers, weโ€™re making it faster to order from the businesses you love and more fun to pay your friends back.

Buying and selling sound like simple thingsโ€”and they should be. Somewhere along the way, they got complicated. Weโ€™re working hard to make commerce easy for everyone.

At Square, we value diversity and always treat all employees and job applicants based on merit, qualifications, competence, and talent. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. We will consider for employment qualified applicants with criminal histories in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.

Job position
Permanent - Remote work is NOT possible
Relocation compensation available
