Senior Software Engineer (Odoo)

We are adding a second senior Odoo developer to work alongside our existing Odoo developer on our payment integration for Odoo 19. The module covers POS card terminals, website payments, saved cards (card on file), and batch reconciliation. The two developers will own separate workstreams, review each other’s code, and share the roadmap.

The existing developer has about three years of Odoo experience across POS, Sales, Inventory, Manufacturing, and Payroll, with REST APIs, cron jobs, and PDF reports. We want the new hire to add depth in payment security, testing, and integration design, so the profile below is more senior and more security-focused.

You will build and maintain Odoo modules that connect to SOAP and REST payment APIs, handle failure cases safely, and keep card data and credentials out of Odoo. You will review pull requests and help raise the quality bar for the whole team.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain Odoo modules in Python and JavaScript (OWL), including payment provider, POS payment interface, and website payment flows.
• Integrate with SOAP and REST payment APIs: device pairing, payment requests with polling and cancellation, tokenized cards, and batch reconciliation.
• Move syncing and scheduled work to background jobs, so no gateway call blocks a login or a save.
• Apply secure-by-default practices: access rights and record rules, authenticated routes with ownership checks, signed tokens, rate limiting, and no card numbers, CVV, or credentials stored in Odoo.
• Write unit and integration tests, including failure paths such as gateway down, duplicate requests, and customers not yet synced.
• Complete a pre-QA checklist and a code quality scan on every ticket, and review pull requests, especially payment-related ones.
• Support upgrades across Odoo versions and troubleshoot merchant issues.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of Odoo development, including 3+ years on Odoo 16 or later.
• Strong Python, plus JavaScript with OWL for POS and website front ends.
• Hands-on experience with Odoo POS, payments, or accounting modules.
• Experience integrating REST and SOAP APIs (for example requests, zeep) with retries, timeouts, and idempotent handling.
• Solid understanding of Odoo access control (ir.model.access, record rules, groups) and controller authentication.
• Working knowledge of PCI DSS basics: tokenization, hosted forms, and why card numbers and CVV must not be stored.
• PostgreSQL and SQL skills; Git and pull-request workflows.

Preferred

• Payment gateway, terminal (EMV), or surcharging experience.
• Familiarity with Odoo’s payment and point_of_sale modules internals.
• Automated testing with Odoo’s test framework and tours.
• Experience with other platforms we support (NetSuite, Business Central, Magento).

Benefits

• Employer paid benefits (including Medical, Dental, Vision, & life insurance) for selected plans for the employee.
• Retirement 401(k) plan with company match.
• Gym access, dry cleaners, car wash conveniently located within building.
• Generous PTO plan with an additional 9 Days Company Paid Holidays per year.
