Senior Software Engineer, iOS (Back Office App)

Square
San Francisco, California, US
Full-time

Company Description

Please make an application promptly if you are a good match for this role due to high levels of interest.

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

  • Work closely with designers and product managers to envision an entire ecosystem within the unified Back Office App
  • Bring user experiences to life, delighting sellers who depend on your work, so they can run their business
  • Collaborate with backend engineers, giving guidance on best practices for APIs friendly to mobile experiences

Qualifications

You Have :

  • 8+ years of experience developing in Swift (iOS)
  • A solid understanding of Reactive Swift and Combine
  • Experience with designing and building APIs between mobile applications and backend services
  • Experience working with cross functional partners and across multiple teams
