Description

We are looking for an expert in customer education and digital onboarding to build self-service learning programs that help sellers start transacting with confidence on Square.

You will develop the content, learning modules, and programs that support a high-velocity sales organization serving sellers with different needs, experience levels, and business types.

Responsibilities:

  • Build self-service learning programs
  • Define the learning strategy for seller onboarding, connecting seller needs with clear learning objectives, content, and measures of success.
  • Design and launch modular learning paths, short-form videos, interactive tutorials, setup guides, webinars, and on-demand courses.
  • Adapt learning paths to different business types, products, roles, and levels of technical experience.
  • Stay close to the work: develop outlines, scripts, storyboards, and sample modules while guiding contributors and production partners.
  • Shape the self-service onboarding portal
  • Guide product and operational decisions for a portal that brings onboarding guidance, learning resources, and progress tracking into one experience.
  • Translate seller research and learning needs into requirements for navigation, content discovery, guided setup, and personalized recommendations.
  • Partner with Product, Design, and Engineering to prioritize features, evaluate tradeoffs, test prototypes, and launch improvements.
  • Define how sellers move between independent learning, live education, and assisted onboarding when they need additional help.
  • Establish ownership for publishing, maintaining, and improving the portal after launch.
  • Connect learning to the sales and onboarding journey
  • Design programs for a high-volume sales environment, where sellers need timely guidance without relying on one-to-one training.
  • Partner with Sales and Onboarding to introduce relevant learning at the right moments, from purchase through setup and first use.
  • Develop recommendations, communications, and reminders that help sellers start learning, complete key tasks, and stay on track.
  • Build scalable live training programs, including webinars and group sessions that complement on-demand content.
  • Measure and improve outcomes
  • Define success beyond content views and course completion: measure setup progress, time to first use, product adoption, seller confidence, and demand for assisted support.
  • Use learning analytics, seller research, support questions, and experiments to identify where sellers get stuck.
  • Test and improve content formats, learning paths, and portal experiences based on evidence.
  • Evaluate AI-assisted guidance and content tools that improve learning and production efficiency, with clear standards for accuracy, privacy, and human review.

Requirements:

  • Extensive experience building customer education, digital learning, or self-service onboarding programs at scale, ideally supporting a high-velocity sales organization.
  • A track record of taking customer-facing learning programs from concept to launch and demonstrating improvements in onboarding or product adoption.
  • Deep expertise in instructional design, adult learning, curriculum development, and task-based learning.
  • Hands-on experience producing modular courses, video tutorials, interactive learning, webinars, and written guidance.
  • Experience with learning management systems, digital authoring tools, content management platforms, and learning analytics.
  • Strong product judgment and experience partnering with Product, Design, and Engineering on customer-facing portals or digital learning experiences.
  • Experience building content production and maintenance processes, including quality review, accessibility, localization, and version control.
  • Analytical skills and the ability to connect learning engagement with customer behavior and business outcomes.
  • Strong writing and storytelling skills, with the ability to make complex concepts clear and actionable.
  • The ability to lead complex programs across teams without direct reporting authority, make decisions independently, and align senior stakeholders.
