Product Manager, OmniChannel Items Management

Since we first opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely – and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take a payment 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, run a busy kitchen, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. And 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 all in one place.

Today, we’re a partner to sellers of all sizes – large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex commerce operations, sellers just starting out, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers scale, so do our solutions. We all grow together. 

There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We’re building a business that is big, meaningful, and lasting. And we are helping sellers around the world do the same.

The Square Inventory, Fulfillment and Merchandising (IFM) team is on a mission to help sellers successfully expand their business into omnichannel sales. We are building the tools to help our sellers to sell across stores, marketplaces, ecommerce sites, and anywhere else they need to grow their business. As part of omnichannel selling, we are also building the tools needed to fulfill these new orders in any way their buyers want from guaranteed two day shipping to curbside pickup to on-demand delivery. We are building an omnichannel hub where sellers can manage all of their products and inventory in one place and sell them across multiple channels with multiple fulfillment methods. In this role, you will be leading how sellers can manage all of their products in one place, and merchandise and sell them across multiple channels.

As a Product Manager on the IFM team, you will impact millions of small businesses that are expanding their sales online and help them transition to successful omnichannel businesses.
