Company Description

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.

Job Description

User Research champions the human-centered exploration of complex problems using evidence, data and insight to help us make better decisions. This User Researcher role is part of the User Research team within Square eCommerce. You will work in partnership with outstanding product managers, designers, marketers, analysts, engineers, alongside other researchers and partners to provide insights that guide remarkable omnichannel solutions to support our sellers.

  • Provide high-quality research outcomes.
  • Connect insights and approaches across multiple squads and data sources to encourage a holistic view that is biased towards action.
  • Shape User Research capabilities and processes, playing an important role in scaling methods, tools and activities that provide value.

Qualifications

You have:

  • 3+ years' experience conducting UX research.
  • Experience with both qualitative and quantitative research methods such as interviews, moderated and unmoderated tests, heuristic evaluations, benchmark studies, contextual inquiries and surveys.
  • Your day-today consists of leading multiple mixed-methods research projects simultaneously end to end: gather requirements, develop guides/screeners/surveys, recruit, moderate, analyze and communicate insights.
  • Ability to work within tight timelines and with excellent project management skills
  • A passion to build user-focused products that solve essential problems.
  • A Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology, Behavioral Economics, Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Information Science, Psychology, Sociology, or a related field. Bonus for candidates with a Graduate Degree.
