As lead designer for Square Payroll, I led the end-to-end redesign of the payroll experience across desktop, mobile, and the employee-facing pay experience. Supporting more than $7B in annual payroll volume, the work spanned the full payroll ecosystem—from onboarding employers and running payroll to helping employees access and understand their pay. We balanced the complexity of compliance with the need for simplicity, enabling faster first payroll runs, reducing setup friction, and introducing proactive alerts that surfaced issues before they could impact payday. The redesign reimagined the entire payroll lifecycle, creating a unified experience that supports businesses of every size while helping employers run payroll with confidence and ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time.
