Software Engineer (Infrastructure)

Who we are

Clients range from single-location retailers to franchise groups with hundreds of stores, all running our point-of-sale and loyalty software. Founded in 2010, the business writes the billing, metering and customer portal software that small water and electric utilities run on. Most engineers work remotely and come into the office one week a quarter for planning.
