The role

4 years of wrestling with Communication taught you what good code feels like, and we want that instinct on our Process Engineer team. The $63,000 - $101,000 is the floor, not the ceiling; with 3 years and technology ownership, this Square role keeps rising.

Key Responsibilities

  • Tune gRPC caching so Square survives the Gainesville launch spike on the same hardware
  • Shave milliseconds off the technology hot path that Square users feel every click
  • Question the unfussy Go pattern everyone copied and propose something cleaner
  • Enhance test automation frameworks to increase release confidence
  • Trace a technology number back through Git services until it finally adds up
  • Pair with technology analysts so Square's Go models match real behavior

What You'll Bring

  • Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
  • Knowledge of FL-specific regulations relevant to technology work
  • 4 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
  • Equal parts Express.js depth and Redis curiosity
  • Mid-level-caliber judgment about when to escalate and when to absorb
  • The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking

Square is the fun-loving FL company that built its name on technology work nobody else wanted to do properly. At Square you can challenge your skip-level's plan and still get a thank-you for it.

Square offers $63,000 - $101,000 plus the autonomy to set your own schedule and the support to keep growing.

This posting reflects an open need we are working to close this quarter.
