Description
Position at Point of Rental Software
What You'll Do
Own the Global API and unified platform, ensuring the infrastructure that Elite, Syrinx, and Essentials all depend on stays reliable and well-documented.
Lead and mentor a small team of engineers, balancing hands-on technical guidance with day-to-day people management.
Stay in the codebase yourself, this is not a pure-oversight role. You're expected to ship real code, not just review pull requests.
Drive daily use of agentic AI development tools across the team, building reusable skills, sub-agents, and workflows rather than relying on one-off prompting.
Produce and maintain the technical artifacts such as, ERDs, swim-lane diagrams, and API flow documentation that keep cross-team dependencies visible to everyone who needs them.
Partner with engineering and product leadership across every RMS product to keep the Global API roadmap aligned with what each product line actually needs.
Estimate realistically, flag risk early, and deliver on commitments without requiring follow-up.
Manage scheduling, time off, performance conversations, and other standard people-management responsibilities for your team.
Recommend headcount, tooling, and process improvements to engineering leadership, and participate directly in hiring for your team.
Serve as the person other teams turn to when they need to understand how a change to the Global API will affect their product.
What You Bring
8+ years of professional software development experience, ideally including ownership of a shared API, integration layer, or platform used by multiple products or teams.
Daily, hands-on experience with agentic AI coding tools. You should be comfortable building custom skills, sub-agents, or workflows around these tools, and able to speak specifically to what you've built.
Strong full-stack experience: backend (Node, Python, .NET, PHP, or similar) and front-end SPA framework (Angular, Vue, React, or similar)
Solid experience with an RDBMS (MySQL, Postgres, Oracle, or similar), including comfort designing and revising ERDs on the spot.
Strong, proactive communication skills. This role sits between multiple teams and requires someone engaged with collaborative
A track record of realistic estimation and delivering on commitments without needing to be chased.
Preferred: CS/Math/Computer Engineering degree, or equivalent hands-on experience with algorithms, design patterns, and data structures.
