Content Designer, Seller Experience
United States, Canada
Employees can work remotely

Company Description
Since we opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely, and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take payments and never miss a sale, we saw sellers stymied by disparate, outmoded products and tools that wouldnt work together.
So we expanded into software and started building integrated, omnichannel solutions to help sellers sell online, manage inventory, offer buy now, pay later functionality through Afterpay, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. Across it all, weve embedded financial services tools at the point of sale, so merchants can access a business loan and manage their cash flow in one place. Afterpay furthers our goal to provide omnichannel tools that unlock meaningful value and growth, enabling sellers to capture the next generation shopper, increase order sizes, and compete at a larger scale.
Today, we are a partner to sellers of all sizes large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex operations, sellers just starting, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers grow, so do our solutions. There is a massive opportunity in front of us. Were building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.
Job Description
The Square Seller Experience team is looking for a Content Designer for Squares AI products and chat experiences.

You will partner with product designers, product managers, researchers, engineering and legal to increase usability and ease of use across our products. Youll also help to build the processes we will rely on to grow the Content Design discipline within our team and across the company. You will report to the Design Manager.

Qualifications
You will:
Define and drive the conversational UX of our AI and chat experiences, in collaboration with subject matter experts, content writers, product managers, and other partners across Square.
Design conversational touch points such as greetings, transitions, proactive notifications, and hand-offsbalancing multiple constraints, goals, and stakeholders to create a smooth seller experience.
Plan for, strategize, and evangelize ways to implement emerging technologies such as GPT-4 and other ML-driven dialogue models.
Be hands-on designing and writing for AI product teams. This includes the smallest micro copy to the most visible headlines and everything in between.
