Primary Responsibilities
Lead the POS engineering teams responsible for designing, developing, deploying, supporting, and continuously improving POS applications and services.
Define and guide well-architected POS, store systems, and cloud-connected retail platform designs that balance performance, reliability, scalability, security, maintainability, and cost.
Provide hands‑on technical leadership across Java, C++, Node.js, React, Electron JS, Windows application development, REST APIs, Spring Framework, MongoDB/NoSQL, AWS, Azure, and CI/CD practices.
Leverage AI, AI agents, and AI-assisted development tools such as Codex, Devin (Windsurf), and similar platforms to improve engineering productivity, code quality, testing, documentation, and troubleshooting.
Oversee development of POS applications and services that support and integrate with store and POS peripherals.
Lead integrations with retail back‑office, loyalty, promotions, fuel dispensers, quick-service restaurant systems, payments, tax, and customer experience platforms.
Drive tax integration for retail transaction flows, with focus on accuracy, auditability, reliability, and performance.
Integrate store applications with cloud-hosted services in AWS and Azure using secure APIs, event-driven patterns, data flows, monitoring, and access controls.
Apply AWS expertise across services such as AWS Lambda, EC2, Fargate, S3, SNS, SQS, API Gateway, Auto Scaling, and Kinesis, and use Infrastructure as Code tools such as CloudFormation and Terraform.
Champion fast, reliable checkout and store workflows by improving transaction processing, peripheral communication, offline and online behavior, observability, and incident response.
Build an automation-first engineering culture across provisioning, deployment, configuration management, testing, monitoring, documentation, and operational support.
Mentor managers, architects, developers, and cloud engineers in secure software development, application architecture, DevOps, testing, debugging, and production support.
Partner with product, security, infrastructure, data, support, vendors, and business stakeholders to clarify requirements, manage backlogs, communicate progress, and deliver customer-focused outcomes.
Manage multiple projects, vendors, contracts, budgets, software assets, hardware assets, and delivery commitments with clear prioritization and transparent reporting.
Evaluate emerging technologies, tools, frameworks, and retail platform capabilities that improve reliability, security, customer experience, engineering velocity, and total cost of ownership.
