  • Develop and optimize CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployments and improve reliability.
  • Manage cloud infrastructure within Google Cloud Platform (GCP), ensuring uptime, scalability, and cost-efficiency.
  • Debug complex technical issues using logs, stack traces, and performance monitoring tools.
  • Implement and maintain security best practices, managing sensitive data, keys, and secrets.
  • Integrate and manage payment APIs (e.g., Stripe) and ensure secure financial transaction processing.
  • Monitor application performance using tools such as Heroku, New Relic, Rollbar, and Crashlytics.
  • Diagnose slow queries, optimize MongoDB schemas and indexes, and improve API performance.
  • Conduct cost-benefit analyses on third-party tools to balance efficiency and expense.
  • Maintain DNS records, application certificates, and software versioning.
  • Ensure data integrity and structure for financial reporting and analytics.

  • SQL knowledge
  • Data visualization tools (Sigma)
  • Figma familiarity
  • Experience in building projects from the ground up
  • Experience developing software for franchise systems

Ideal Candidate

You’re an experienced engineer who enjoys solving complex technical challenges at the

systems level. You understand how to build for scale, security, and performance — not just for

today’s needs but for future growth. You’re comfortable owning both architecture and code,

working cross-functionally, and helping a small engineering team deliver world-class software.
