Our purpose is economic empowerment.
The Role

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, 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.
The Role
The Onboarding team is responsible for the experiences within our mobile apps that help establish our Sellers identity with the product we provide and support them as issues arise. This spans features across authentication (sign-in and multi-factor), user onboarding, payment activation (Know Your Customer), account security, and identity management (remediation).
As an Android engineer on the team you will have a key role in designing, building, and improving our existing experiences in these areas across our Android mobile applications. This includes our flagship products Point of Sale , Square Register , Square Terminal , Square for Restaurants , Square for Retail , Square Appointments , Square Invoices , Square Payroll , Square Team .
You Will

  • Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of critical features within Onboarding.
  • Collaborate with product managers, designers, and engineers across teams to deliver high-quality, scalable features
  • Advocate for best practices in Android development, ensuring code quality, performance, and maintainability
  • Provide technical mentorship and guidance to engineers, promoting a culture of learning and new ideas
  • Identify and improve our Android development processes and tools, contributing to the technical roadmap


You Have

  • 12+ years of experience architecting and leading complex Android projects at scale
  • Experience working across teams to deliver cohesive, user-focused solutions
  • Experience mentoring engineers and improving Android development processes that span across the organization


Technologies We Use and Teach

  • Kotlin, Java for mobile development; Gradle for build tooling
  • Compose, Workflow, Dagger, Anvil, Coroutines, RxJava, Retrofit, OkHttp
  • Performance related tooling such as LeakCanary, Perfetto, Macrobenchmark
