Product Lead, Shopping - job 1 of 2

Cash App began as an idea at Block in 2013, initially built to simplify peer-to-peer payments. Today, it has grown into one of the top-ranked Finance apps in the App Stores, used by over 55 million monthly active customers to send, spend, borrow, and invest their money. Our mission is to redefine the world's relationship with money—making it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

In the U.S., we've integrated Afterpay's Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) functionality directly into Cash App to help customers manage their money more flexibly. Globally, Afterpay (Clearpay in the UK) serves 11M+ active customers and partners with over 64,000 top retailers including Anthropologie, DSW, Revolve, GOAT, Levi's, Ray-Ban, Uber, and more.

Afterpay increases customers' purchasing power, and empowers responsible spending through flexible payment options like Pay in Four and longer-duration Pay Monthly. Our mission is to increase access to simple, scalable credit solutions.

Cash App operates as a distributed, remote-first team, with hubs and offices across global markets. While remote by design, we emphasize intentional in-person collaboration through regular onsites to drive high-quality execution and velocity.
