We're developing these products in the open - you can read more about them at bitkey.build and mining.build. Within Proto, our Bitcoin Products team delivers the product and go-to-market strategy, software, firmware, and custom silicon needed to make Bitkey and our ambitious mining initiatives a reality. Come build the future of money with us!

The Role

We are looking for an ASIC Validation Engineer to help bridge the gap between custom mining silicon design and real-world operation. In this highly hands-on, lab-focused role, you'll work closely with ASIC designers and system engineers to debug issues, build test infrastructure, and generate the data needed to enable rapid design iteration and system-level development.

You Will:

• Bring up new silicon on bench platforms, evaluation boards, and system hardware
• Debug issues across ASIC, board, firmware, and system interactions
• Develop bench tests, scripts, and tools to exercise silicon features and collect data
• Build and maintain test setups (lab automation, instrumentation, fixtures, scripts)
• Partner with ASIC designers to validate functionality and root-cause failures
• Work with system engineers to ensure silicon performs correctly in target system environments, including mining systems
• Generate and analyze data to support design decisions, characterization, and bring-up
• Create lightweight, reusable test workflows and documentation for the broader team
• Support early manufacturing efforts with practical validation and debug, as needed

You Have:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
• 4+ years of experience in silicon validation, hardware test, or related roles
• Strong hands-on experience in a lab environment (bench bring-up, debugging, instrumentation)
• Solid understanding of digital systems and basic analog concepts
• Experience writing scripts or tools (Python preferred) for test and data analysis
• Comfortable debugging issues that span multiple layers (ASIC ↔ board ↔ system)
• Clear communication skills and ability to work closely with cross-functional teams

Preferred:

• Experience with ASIC or FPGA bring-up and validation
• Familiarity with common interfaces (SPI, I2C, JTAG, UART, etc.)
• Experience using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, etc.)
• Exposure to high-performance, power-dense systems (e.g., mining ASICs, accelerators, or similar)
• Experience building test automation or internal tooling
• Familiarity with data analysis and visualization

Nice to Have

• Experience working with early silicon / first bring-up environments
• Exposure to manufacturing test or ATE
• Experience working on systems with tight power, thermal, and performance constraints

Why This Role Matters

This role enables the team to move fast. By building the right test infrastructure and quickly turning hardware behavior into actionable data, you'll help both ASIC and system teams iterate faster and make better decisions across silicon and mining system development.

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 wouldn’t 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, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. 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 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. We’re building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.

As our subject matter expert for global import compliance, you'll bring deep industry knowledge and an established network of supplier relationships. You'll quickly assess our current program against industry benchmarks, optimize existing partnerships, and strategically develop new capabilities where needed. Where industry standards don't exist or don't fit Block's unique needs, you'll have the confidence and expertise to define what "good" looks like and establish performance standards that drive results. You'll have the autonomy to implement your vision while protecting Block's brand and partnerships in every market we operate.

You Will

• Design and optimize customs clearance networks for speed, cost, and compliance accuracy

As our sellers grow, so do our solutions. There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We're building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.

The Role

As an Enterprise Account Executive, you'll be the tip of the spear for Square's most strategic, high-value deals. You'll navigate multi-threaded sales cycles with executive stakeholders involving technical integrations and cross-functional alignment. This is a role for a seasoned enterprise seller who owns the full deal lifecycle — from cold outreach to signed contract — and thrives in the complexity that comes with it.

You'll join a high-performing enterprise sales team that is deeply supported and strategically prioritized. Square is making significant investments to bring Square upmarket at scale and enable enterprise sales success. This is a team that operates with rigor, moves with urgency, and takes pride in signing the largest deals for the company.

You Will

• Craft and Lead Deal Strategy: Develop sophisticated, insight-led sales narratives tailored to client business priorities. You will identify the right entry points, mapping stakeholder influence, and building compelling business cases that create clear ROI.
• Own the Full Sales Cycle: Manage your pipeline end-to-end with precision — from prospecting and discovery through negotiation and close — qualifying rigorously and driving momentum at every stage without losing sight of the details
• Lead Technical, Complex Sales Cycles: Partner closely with Solutions Engineering to scope platform requirements and API integrations. Translate deeply technical concepts into language that resonates with executive decision-makers and know when to bring in the right expert at the right moment
• Orchestrate Internal Alignment: Quarterback cross-functional stakeholders across Finance, Legal, Risk, Product, Solutions Engineering, and Account Management — proactively surfacing blockers, resolving ambiguity, and ensuring everyone is aligned and moving in the same direction
• Represent Square at the Highest Level: Represent Square in C-suite meetings, on stage at industry conferences, or in working sessions with a prospect's technical team — with executive presence that is polished, credible, and authentic
• Build Block's Enterprise Network: Represent Square at industry events, trade shows, and networking functions; develop lasting relationships with senior leaders at leading brands and platform partners
• Be a Multiplier for the Business: Channel the voice of the customer internally to influence product roadmaps and go-to-market strategy; apply AI tools to sharpen your research, automate workflows, and increase your overall output

You Have

• 8+ years of enterprise sales experience, with a track record of closing complex, high-value deals with end-to-end ownership
• Deep experience in technical sales cycles — you're fluent in conversations involving API integrations, custom development, and platform configuration, and you collaborate naturally with Solutions Engineering teams
• A proven ability to orchestrate multi-stakeholder deals — internally and externally — with exceptional communication, follow-through, and organizational discipline
• Executive presence that's equally at home on a conference stage, in a C-suite boardroom, or on a discovery call with a technical champion
• Experience selling a complex ecosystem of SaaS or fintech products, ideally in payments, commerce, or adjacent verticals
• The ability to operate independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment — you don't wait to be told what to do next
• A talent for translating complexity into clarity — whether that's simplifying a technical integration for a CFO or structuring an ambiguous problem for an internal stakeholder
• A BA/BS degree or equivalent professional experience
• Willingness to travel ~40%

Why This Role

Square is growing our upmarket sales motion. We've built the infrastructure, the product depth, and the brand credibility to compete at the highest level — and we're accelerating. This role is for someone who wants to be at the center of that momentum: closing deals that matter, building relationships that last, and helping shape what enterprise sales looks like at one of the most consequential companies in commerce

Initially built to take the pain out of peer-to-peer payments, Cash App has gone from a simple product with a single purpose to a dynamic ecosystem, developing unique financial products, including Afterpay/Clearpay, to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 50+ million monthly active customers. We want to redefine the world’s relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App has thousands of employees working globally across office and remote locations, with a culture geared toward innovation, collaboration and impact. We’ve been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.

The Role

As Block has scaled, so has the complexity of our regulatory environment. The Settlements and Supervision Operating Model (SSOM) - is Block's centralised governance and execution engine for managing our most critical regulatory commitments. SSOM exists to bring rigour, consistency, and accountability to how Block engages with regulators, auditors, consultants, and partners across a range of high-priority regulatory matters..

SSOM is led by a lean, fully dedicated cross-functional core team drawn from Compliance, Legal, BizOps, Data Science, and Finance. We move fast, operate with precision, and are deeply committed to getting this right for Block, our customers, and our regulators.

The Opportunity

This is not a typical program management role. As a SSOM Program Manager, you'll be the driving force behind how Block uses intelligent tooling, automation, and AI to execute one of its most complex and consequential programs. You'll identify where AI and automation can eliminate manual effort, reduce risk, improve tracking accuracy, and accelerate remediation - and then you'll build it, champion it, and embed it into how the SSOM and its partners operate every day.

You'll partner with Compliance, Legal, Data Science, BizOps, Customer Support and Engineering to bring AI-powered workflows to a high-stakes, high-scrutiny environment. You'll be the person who makes the complex feel manageable, and the possible feel inevitable.

We're looking for someone who deeply understands both the gravity of regulatory execution and the transformative potential of AI — and who can bridge those two worlds with credibility, rigour, and genuine enthusiasm.

You will:

• Champion AI & Automation Adoption: Act as the primary evangelist for AI and automation tools within the SSOM Core Team and across the broader Matrix Team - running demos, enablement sessions, and hands-on workshops that build genuine capability and enthusiasm in a regulatory program context.
• Identify & Build Automation Opportunities: Proactively map SSOM workflows end-to-end to identify high-impact automation opportunities - from requirements tracking and remediation pipeline management to regulatory reporting, escalation workflows, and document generation.
• Own the AI & Automation Roadmap: Partner with SSOM leadership and BizOps to define, prioritise, and deliver a rolling roadmap of AI-powered initiatives that measurably improve the speed, accuracy, and consistency of SSOM execution.
• Drive Tool Optimisation: Oversee the adoption and continuous improvement of program management tooling - ensuring automation, AI-assisted insights, and workflow enhancements are embedded into how the SSOM executes against regulatory commitments.
• Translate AI for a Regulatory Audience: Bridge the gap between technical capability and regulatory program reality - communicating the value of AI tools in plain language, with clear use cases, risk considerations, and practical guidance tailored to Compliance, Legal, and BizOps stakeholders.
• Build Scalable Frameworks: Develop reusable playbooks, automation blueprints, and AI-assisted templates that allow the SSOM to scale governance and remediation execution consistently across settlements, supervision workstreams, and future scope expansions.
• Measure What Matters: Define and track KPIs for AI and automation initiatives - including time saved, error reduction, tracking accuracy, and remediation velocity - and report insights to the Steering Committee with clear recommendations.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Data Science, Engineering, Compliance Analytics, and external consultants to ensure the SSOM has access to the best tooling, pilots, and AI innovations - and that sensitive regulatory data is handled with appropriate controls.
• Stay Ahead of the Curve: Continuously evaluate emerging AI platforms, agentic tools, and automation technologies - bringing informed, opinionated recommendations on what to adopt, pilot, or watch, with a clear eye on risk and compliance implications.
• Roll Up Your Sleeves When It Counts: Step in as a hands-on generalist when the situation demands it - whether that's troubleshooting a complex workflow breakdown, facilitating a working session to unblock a stalled workstream, or leading a targeted intervention to get a remediation track back on course. You know when to let the tools do the work, and when to get in the room and do it yourself.

You will:
Qualifications: Like us, you'll be deeply committed to delivering positive outcomes for Block, our regulators, and our customers - and passionate about using AI to make that execution faster, smarter, and more reliable.

• You have 8+ years of experience in program management, BizOps, regulatory operations, or a related field - with a clear track record of driving process improvement and technology adoption in complex, cross-functional environments.
• You are genuinely excited about AI and automation - you've used tools like AI assistants, workflow automation platforms, and LLM-powered tools, and you have real opinions about what works and what doesn't.
• You have experience leading change management and enablement initiatives - you know how to bring sceptical stakeholders on a journey and make new technology feel accessible, not threatening, in risk-sensitive environments.
• You're analytically strong - comfortable with program tracking data, remediation metrics, and building business cases for tooling investment.
• Your EQ and ability to influence without authority will be just as important as your technical chops - the SSOM spans Compliance, Legal, Engineering, and BizOps, and you'll need to earn trust across all of them.
• Experience in regulated industries - fintech, financial services, or similar - is a strong advantage. Familiarity with AML/BSA, CFPB supervision, or consent order management is highly desirable.
• You understand the stakes: this program has direct visibility to Block's Steering Committee and Board of Directors. You bring the judgement, discretion, and professionalism the environment demands.
