Staff Software Developer (Dealer Solutions, Europe)

Quick Facts

• Role: Staff Software Developer (Dealer Solutions, Europe)

• Focus: Technical direction for the QFloors ERP migration from legacy desktop to a modern web stack

Description

You will lead technical direction across multiple projects for the QFloors-to-ERP migration, ensuring safe domain sequencing, data modeling, and tenant cutover while desktop and web run side by side. The role requires planning 6+ months ahead across both codebases, holding the line on architecture as teams ship releases. You will act as the most senior engineering voice for platform direction across both teams.

Responsibilities

• Own technical direction for the QFloors-to-ERP migration: domain sequencing, tenant-specific cutover strategy, and integration seams between desktop and web.

• Plan 6+ months ahead, break down work for engineers at different levels, and identify foundational investments before they block delivery.

• Drive the largest program projects to completion—hands-on where it matters most and delegate where it doesn’t.

• Elicit requirements and lead design discussions across Windows desktop, Azure infrastructure, Django services, and Next.js surfaces.

• Evaluate competing approaches by quality risk and guide teams through technology changes when needed.

• Set code review standards across both teams, identify patterns worth turning into standards or automation, and build trust to delegate review responsibility.

• Mentor engineers across all technologies and help desktop-trained engineers become full contributors on the web stack.

• Keep the platform observable, scalable, and cost-efficient; manage the transition away from Azure dependencies without slowing delivery.

• Partner with engineering management, product, and the CTO on the roadmap with proposals and alternatives when blocked.

• Support hiring and onboarding by evaluating technical depth of candidates for both teams.

• Lead architecture and delivery of complex backend systems enabling scalable 3D and computer vision experiences.

• Build mission-critical APIs, data pipelines, and services for high-traffic global applications.

• Define technical direction with leadership, including foundational investments and plans for scale and performance.

• Enable high-quality, high-velocity development through mentoring senior engineers and running architecture reviews.

• Champion backend engineering excellence across scalability, resiliency, observability, and maintainability.

• Lead cross-functional initiatives across multiple teams and business stakeholders.

• Help shape long-term technical vision and engineering culture, including hiring and growth strategies.

Requirements

• 8+ years of software development experience building and operating scalable, reliable systems in production.

• Experience leading end-to-end multi-team migrations or re-platforming with live users and live data.

• Deep computer science fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, networking, databases.

• Strong relational data modeling, including multi-tenant schema design and safe data migration.

• Proven ability to design distributed services with performance, observability, and fault tolerance.

• Strong architectural instincts and ability to make high-leverage decisions across teams and codebases.

• Demonstrated ability to influence and mentor senior engineers and raise engineering practices.

• Exceptional ownership mindset with a drive to deliver lasting impact.

• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

• Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-autonomy, product-driven environment.

Benefits

• Remote-first work model with flexibility to work where you’re most productive.

• Ownership-focused teams and an emphasis on engineering excellence and execution.

• Culture of curiosity, attention to detail, urgency, and delivering on promises.
