Product Marketing Manager, Commerce Platform

The Square Inventory, Fulfillment and Merchandising (IFM) team, formed by the acquisition of Stitch Labs in July 2020, 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.

As a Product Marketing 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. You will need to be both customer-focused and data-driven, digging into understanding our sellers, their needs, and their behavior. You will translate these insights into strategies that ensure the right customers are getting the right message, through the right channels, and represent the customer's voice in product strategy decisions. The ultimate goal is to make sure we are building the right products for our audiences, and to drive growth and usage of these products and features across the Square portfolio.
