Hello SHPE @Georgia Tech!

Square is thrilled to be launching our University Programs efforts this year and we would love for YOU to consider joining our team! Square is a mobile payments startup in San Francisco looking for Computer Science and Engineering majors to help us quickly and securely processes millions of dollars each day. At Square we value design, user experience, and accuracy. If it's not beautiful, reliable, and magical, we won't ship it. We're looking for people who share our values and are passionate about simplifying the world of payments.

Jack Dorsey is the creator, co-founder, and Executive Chairman of Twitter, Inc. and the co-founder and CEO of Square, Inc. Originally from St. Louis, Jack's early fascination with mass-transit and how cities function led him to Manhattan and programming real-time messaging systems for couriers, taxis, and emergency vehicles. Through this work, Jack witnessed thousands of workers in the field constantly updating where they were and what they were doing; Twitter is a constrained simplification designed for general usage and extended by the millions of people who make it their own every day. As part of Jack's continued devotion to simplifying the complex and making technology accessible to everyone, everywhere, Jack co-founded Square in 2009. Square enables anyone to accept credit card payments on their mobile device and has empowered hundreds of thousands of individuals and merchants to start and grow a business. Jack was recognized as one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people and was named an "outstanding innovator under the age of 35" by MIT's Technology Review.

There are a number of GA Tech alum here. Square is growing at a very fast pace we are seeking interns / co-op and full-time grads for positions in iOS, Android, Ruby, and Risk.  We will be attending the Career Fair on 9.12, will conduct on-campus interviews on 10.10, and then will bring finalists on-site to interview shortly thereafter.

Please apply for positions through JobMine as well as our careers site: https://squareup.com/jobs

We look forward to meeting you this fall! If there ways for us to partner with you on campus please don't hesitate to reach out. 

Best,
Saqi
