    Job Description

    Square is looking for a Designer to join our award-winning Creative Studio team, with a focus on our Core Point of Sale. This includes the Square Point of Sale app and its associated add-on products, like Invoices, Gift Cards, Team Management, Marketing, and Loyalty. This is the central foundation of our business. You will work with our different product teams, including PMs, PMMs, Product Designers and Engineers to create smart solutions that help tell the story of Square’s growing ecosystem of products. We work across the latest platforms, covering web and mobile experiences, UX/UI, product development, visual design, prototyping, experiential installations, photography, video, and animation.

We are looking for deep collaboration, rapid prototyping and an open feedback cycle. We create a lot of content, from paid marketing assets to website updates to informative videos, but we need someone who can empathize with the needs of our sellers, and who can help us tell them a story visually that they will understand.
