Principal Designer – Cash App

Cash App, a product of Block, Inc., was created in 2013 to make peer‑to‑peer payments simple.

Cash App serves 57 million monthly active customers worldwide, and our goal is to redefine how people relate to money so it feels relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Driven by innovation, collaboration and impact, Cash App has thousands of employees working across office and remote locations.
