We are looking for an experienced computer programmer to develop a custom Kitchen Display System (KDS) and order fulfillment app for our multi-location bakery business. This is a project-based contract with the potential for additional work after completion.
Project Scope:
- Build a custom KDS integrated with Square POS
- Display orders in real time with item-level completion tracking
- Develop a connected order fulfillment app to streamline production and delivery
- Deliver a polished, reliable, bug-tested solution with decent UX that is future-proofed for expansion and long-term maintenance
Requirements:
- Proficiency in JavaScript, Node.js, API integrations
- Strong experience with Square API or similar POS API systems
- Solid database management and cloud hosting skills
- Ability to work independently, meet deadlines, and produce clean, scalable code
- UI/UX design skills a plus
Compensation:
Project-based — Estimated budget $8,000–$12,000, negotiable based on experience and scope. Payment by agreed milestones.
Ownership & Partnership Opportunity:
All code, designs, and related work will be the exclusive property of our company. However, we are open to discussing a future partnership if we decide to offer this product to other bakeries. This would be a shared business opportunity — but the programmer may not sell, license, or distribute the work independently.
About Us:
We operate multiple high-volume bakery locations in NYC. This system will be central to improving our order tracking and fulfillment efficiency.
