KEY DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITES:

Lead a team of engineers responsible for designing, developing, deploying, supporting, and continuously improving DEX forecourt applications and services, including dispenser software, payment integration, and media/display systems.

Guide well-architected forecourt and cloud-connected retail platform designs that balance performance, reliability, scalability, security, maintainability, and cost.

Oversee integration with fuel dispenser hardware and OEM platforms (Gilbarco/GVR Flex Pay, Invenco, Dover Anthem) including CRIND firmware, SPOT protocol, and Conexus XML standards.

Drive dispenser payment and media integration work, including display/screen protocols, Neocloud media APIs, and secure device communication.

Own security posture for embedded forecourt devices, including Secure Boot, TPM2-sealed LUKS encryption, firmware update (fund) processes, and PCI/P2PE compliance across the payment attack surface.

Integrate forecourt applications with cloud-hosted AWS services using secure, event-driven patterns, monitoring, and access controls.

Champion reliable dispenser-to-cloud transaction flows by improving device communication, offline/online resiliency, observability, and incident response for field-deployed hardware.

Leverage AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity, code quality, testing, and documentation.

Lead vendor-facing technical engagement with forecourt hardware and payment partners (Gilbarco/GVR, Invenco) on integration issues, support escalations, and roadmap alignment.

Build an automation-first engineering culture across device provisioning, deployment, configuration management, testing, monitoring, and self-service tooling (e.g., install/documentation distribution portals).

Mentor engineers in secure software development, embedded systems, cloud architecture, DevOps, testing, debugging, and production support for field hardware.

Partner with product, InfoSec, IT strategy, field operations, hardware vendors, and business stakeholders to clarify requirements, manage backlogs, communicate progress, and deliver customer-focused outcomes.

Manage project delivery, vendor relationships, and support commitments across a distributed fleet of forecourt devices, with clear prioritization and transparent reporting.
