Our Client is a B2B SaaS startup specializing in innovative POS system solutions for the restaurant industry. We are seeking a hands-on, results-driven R&D Technician (Tech Lead Track) to own E2E technical delivery of new features development, product enhancements, and critical R&D initiatives. You will lead cross-functional efforts to accelerate multi-region product rollout and drive the transition from a chaotic development environment to a structured, agile-powered workflow.

Key Responsibilities

➢ Lead the full lifecycle development of controlled, high-priority modules (e.g., POS integrations, multi-region scaling solutions, core product features) from design to deployment and post-launch optimization.

➢ Oversee full agile workflows (daily standups, sprint planning, code reviews, retrospectives); mentor junior engineers and establish agile/Scrum best practices; align with founders on backlog prioritization and mitigate scope creep from non-technical stakeholders.

➢ Build and maintain mobile (React Native) and web (React) features; develop scalable APIs/backend logic (Golang/Node.js); partner with PM/QA to deliver production-ready, compliant code; research and pitch technical roadmaps and innovations.

➢ Ensure R&D outputs meet fintech/POS industry compliance standards; maintain system reliability via rigorous testing, monitoring and troubleshooting.

Requirements

➢ 5+ years software engineering experience, with 2+ years leading small teams/cross-functional projects.

➢ Proven track record in SaaS scaling (high-traffic POS/fintech systems); multi-region deployment and MongoDB sharding experience preferred.

➢ Expertise in Kubernetes (deployment strategies, resource management, cluster optimization). ➢ Full-stack proficiency: Node.js, React (web) and React Native (mobile, required).

➢ Backend development skills in Golang/Node.js (scalable APIs/distributed systems).

➢ MongoDB (multi-region/sharding) data modeling experience for high-volume apps.

➢ Strong agile/Scrum knowledge; Scrum certification (CSM/CSP) a plus.

➢ Fluent in English (verbal/written) for cross-region and stakeholder communication.

➢ Data-driven decision-maker, balancing speed and quality in fast-paced environments.

➢ Proactive problem-solver with a focus on mentoring and building high performing teams.
