We’re looking for a Manager, Software Engineering to lead our mobile app & hardware team . You will manage a team of 5-8 talented software engineers and partner closely with a dedicated product manager to build, scale, and refine critical components of our backend systems. This role balances technical leadership, delivery execution, and people management.

This is a hybrid position based in our Calgary office. We believe that in-person collaboration a few days a week strengthens communication and team cohesion.

On this team, you'll be building the tools that put payment processing directly in merchants' hands. We create the mobile applications, Smart Terminal experiences, and point-of-sale interfaces that merchants use every day to run their businesses. From tablet-based checkout to handheld card readers, our work spans native iOS and Android apps, EMV terminal integrations, and the APIs that power real-time transactions. The stakes are high- when a merchant swipes a card or taps a terminal, our code is what makes the sale happen. We focus on reliability, speed, and intuitive design because every second counts at the point of sale.
