About the role

This is a new position. We are adding a Staff-level engineer to hold technical direction across multiple projects.

We have recently acquired QFloors, a company building an ERP solution for the flooring industry. We are in the process of modernizing and integrating this platform with the rest of our system.

The migration of QFloors from our 20+ year-old desktop software system to a up-to-date web stack is the largest engineering program in this part of the company. It is multi-tenant, runs on live customer data, and moves one business domain at a time while dealers keep working. Each domain has to be designed once and land correctly in both codebases, in the right order, with a safe cutover per tenant.



That takes someone who designs six plus months ahead, sees across both sides (Desktop & Web), and can hold a line on architecture while the teams ship every release.

You will not be the manager of these teams, and you will not be a specialist confined to one stack. You will be the most senior engineer in the room for both, and the person the engineering manager and the CTO look to for what the platform should become.

About you

You have a passion for solving complex problems and working on products used by millions of people. You enjoy setting the bar high and clearing it. You can lead by example, but you know when to step aside and let the team run with the ball. Your technical knowledge is matched only by your passion to design, create, and succeed with others.

You want to build on your experience. You are interested in making a big impact, but perhaps you are currently limited in your growth potential. Join us and you will work directly with our talented engineering team to push our product to new heights.

We hire humans, not job descriptions.

We’re happy to create unique roles and compensation for the right talent.

About our stack

- Web : Python, Django, Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, AWS
- QFloors desktop : C++ on Windows, PostgreSQL, delivered through Azure Virtual Desktop

What you'll do





- Own the technical direction of the QFloors-to-ERP migration across both teams: the domain sequencing, the data model each domain lands on, the cutover strategy per tenant, and the seams that let the desktop and the web ERP run side by side until the last domain moves.
- Design six-plus months ahead. Anticipate what both teams will need, break the work down so engineers at different levels can be productive on it, and identify the foundational investments before they become blockers.
- Drive the largest projects in the program to completion, staying hands-on in the code where it matters most and delegating where it doesn't.
- Elicit requirements and lead design discussions across the full range of technologies both teams use, from the legacy desktop code to the Django services and the Next.js surfaces in Roomvo Pro.
- Evaluate competing approaches on quality risk, considering the technology, the delivery process, and the team's expertise, and guide the teams to the best one. Be willing to change a technology in use and lead everyone through the change.
- Set the bar for reviews on both teams. Review the work and the feedback other reviewers give, spot the patterns worth turning into standards or automation, and build the trust that lets you delegate review responsibility.
- Mentor everyone, on every technology either team uses. Grow the engineers who came up on the desktop side into full contributors on the web stack.
- Keep the platform observable, scalable, and cheap to run. Know the strengths and limits of what we use, including the Azure footprint the desktop product still depends on, and make sure the transition off it creates no dr
