The Role

Company Description
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 through Afterpay, 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.
Job Description
The Square International Android team is responsible for identifying and 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 pixel perfect 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 Tap to Pay in all our international markets, adding support for different QR-based payment methods for our sellers in Japan, adding surcharging support for our sellers in Australia, making onboarding improvements for our sellers in the EU, and building other market-specific features for our sellers.
As part of this team, you will:

  • Partner with iOS and server engineers to build innovative new features for our International sellers.
  • Work closely with product managers and designers to iterate on and define product scope and design.
  • Bring high proficiency in Android 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.


Qualifications
You have:

  • 5+ years of industry experience, preferably with a B.S. or equivalent.
  • Proficiency in native Android development using standard tools and frameworks.
  • Proficiency in Java and/or Kotlin for development (we use both).
  • A passion for building mobile products at all levels - from the low level architectural decisions to the individual pixels and overall product experience.
  • An innate desire to build mission critical products that our merchants will depend on every day to successfully run their business.


Android Technologies we use and teach:

  • Kotlin for development, leveraging Square's modern open source library, Workflow
  • Espresso UI for testing
  • Protocol buffers for network transport
  • Gradle for our build environment
  • Dagger, leveraging Square's open source library, Anvil, to simplify dependency injection
  • Compose, LeakCanary, Kotlin Coroutines, Mortar, OkHTTP and more
