Job Description
The Block Brand and Purpose team mixes creative, communications, and data to build the Block brand and communicate our purpose of economic empowerment. We're curious, quirky designers, writers, strategists, technologists, analysts, and economists who work on everything from big brand campaigns to deep data analysis.
We're looking for a creative software engineer to help bring the Block brand to life through creative interactive experiences. You are well versed in an appropriate mix of front-end development and prototyping tools, and have experience with animation and 3D rendering for the web. You create flexible code that can be iterated upon, and pride yourself on being up on the latest best practices. Thriving on exploration and experimentation, you are at the heart of co-creating ideas and bringing them to life. Your skills complement your application of technology, including (but never limited to): a precise eye for intelligent UX, great design, and a strategic foundation. Block is an art-forward brand and you will work with multiple teams to create experiences that promote our purpose, tell compelling narratives, and express our identity. No idea is too out there. You will report to the Creative Software Engineer Lead.
