In this role, you will act as the first line of engineering defense: driving manual APK releases and OTA deployments, managing third-party integrations, triaging live production crashes, and debugging partner outages. You will bridge the gap between core developers, external integration partners, and operations to maximize developer bandwidth.
Key Responsibilities
Production Incident Management & Debugging: Triage, investigate, and diagnose production issues across custom POS terminals, headless apps, and integrated merchant hardware. Follow Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to conduct initial Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and escalate actionable bug reports to core engineering.
Partner & Vendor Integration Support: Act as the technical point of contact for external partners and hardware vendors (e.g., transit authorities, oil merchants). Assist third-party engineering teams with SDK onboarding, client configuration updates, and end-to-end integration debugging.
Log Analysis & Outage Investigation: Capture, inspect, and analyze system, device, and network logs during active vendor downtime or transaction failures to pinpoint points of failure across devices, SDKs, and backend services.
Release & Deployment Management: Coordinate manual APK release processes and custom Over-The-Air (OTA) updates for production terminals operating outside the standard Google Play ecosystem.
Support Tooling & Automation: Develop lightweight scripts, utilities, and internal tools to automate repetitive diagnostic tasks, log parsing, configuration pushes, and reporting workflows.
- Monitoring & Metrics: Track app crash rates, operational health metrics, and transaction telemetry across deployed fleets to proactively spot anomalies before they impact merchants.
3 to 5 years of relevant professional experience
Proven success working in a fast-paced production support environment
Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively in writing, with a successful track record of responding to and resolving customer issues
Excellent written and oral communication skills
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Ability to effectively work and collaborate with cross-functional teams
Possess the ability to understand business problems and provide data, solutions, or information related to business requirements
Technical Skills:
Hands-on Android Foundation: Practical experience building or maintaining at least one Android application. Must have a working understanding of the Android lifecycle, basic app architecture, and debugging workflows.
Technical Troubleshooting: Hands-on proficiency using adb, reading Android Logcat, analyzing stack traces, and inspecting network traffic/API payloads (REST APIs, HTTP status codes, JSON).
Scripting & Tooling: Ability to write basic scripts (Python, Shell, or Bash) to parse logs, automate routines, or interact with APIs.
Understanding of Constrained Environments: Familiarity with Android development constraints (working with XML layouts, memory limits, and background execution). Experience with custom Android builds, AOSP, or devices lacking Google Play Services is a strong plus.
Communication & Collaboration: Strong verbal and written communication skills to articulate technical issues clearly to third-party partners (e.g., Hitachi), merchant teams, and internal engineering leads.
Preferred Qualifications
Prior experience in fintech, POS terminal development, payment gateways, or payment SDK integrations (e.g., card payment rails, UPI, transit/NCMC implementations).
Familiarity with hardware/software payment certification lifecycles (L1, L2, L3 certifications across RuPay, Visa, Mastercard).
- Exposure to fleet device management, soundboxes, or smart payment hardware deployments.
