Squarespace is looking for a VP of Software Engineering to lead our Product Platform organization. Product Platform exists to solve the problems that cut across every product team so those teams can ship better products, faster. Your customers are internal: the product teams taking Squarespace to market. What you own is the layer underneath them, spanning identity and access, user accounts, our design system, media, communications, APIs and service frameworks, the external developer environment, and the shared AI capabilities behind our newest products.
This is a platform-as-product leadership role - your mission is to consolidate overlapping capabilities, drive adoption of shared foundations, and turn the platform into a source of velocity and product quality.
We’re looking for someone who is excited to grow a leadership team, and who has demonstrated experience operating as a close partner to infrastructure, product management and commercial teams.
This position reports to Squarespace’s President and is based in NYC (3x/week hybrid).
The base salary for this position will vary based on job-related criteria including relevant skills, experience, and location, among other factors.
In addition to the cash compensation above (which includes base salary and, where applicable for eligible roles, may include overtime pay), Squarespace employees are eligible to be granted an option to purchase our common stock. Sales positions generally offer a competitive On Target Earnings (OTE) incentive structure in addition to base salary.
