Compensation Operations Partner

Runs Square payments and the Cash App money app
Block is one company built from many blocks, all united by the same purpose of economic empowerment. The blocks that form our foundational teams — People, Finance, Counsel, Hardware, Information Security, Platform Infrastructure Engineering, and more — provide support and guidance at the corporate level. They work across business groups and around the globe, spanning time zones and disciplines to develop inclusive People policies, forecast finances, give legal counsel, safeguard systems, nurture new initiatives, and more. Every challenge creates possibilities, and we need different perspectives to see them all. Bring yours to Block.
We are looking for a Compensation Operations Partner, AI & Automation to join our team in an AI-first operating model—one where compensation rules, decisions, and reporting are increasingly encoded into automated workflows and self-service tools rather than handled case by case. As our primary compensation archetype, our Program Leads operate as internal product owners. Beyond hands-on partnership, they architect scalable frameworks, build self-service governance, and drive strategic total rewards programs across the company.
Working as part of a lean pod of peer Program Leads, you will take full ownership of major program pillars while collaborating closely on overarching compensation philosophy, automation initiatives, and data-driven tooling.
