About
POS technician candidate who has worked both sides of the counter. Years of experience running ticket-driven kitchens in high-volume food operations, plus hands-on experience designing, deploying, and supporting a cloud restaurant POS platform end to end — receipt and kitchen printers, cash drawers, QR and card payment flows, Linux servers, networking, and AI-enhanced analytics. Comfortable diagnosing a fault on site, explaining the fix plainly to a non-technical merchant, and documenting it afterward.
Experience
Founder & Technical Lead - SmartOrdr - London, ON / Oman
(2026-03)
Designed, built, and support a cloud POS for restaurants covering order entry, kitchen display, cash drawer and receipt printing, QR payments, delivery dispatch, loyalty, inventory, and owner reporting.
- Integrate and troubleshoot restaurant hardware — thermal receipt and kitchen printers over USB and network, cash drawer triggers, and QR payment flows — diagnosing real field faults such as duplicate receipts on slow printers and payment confirmations that failed to post.
- Deploy and maintain the platform on Linux servers using Docker, nginx, and Redis, with SSL, backups, and remote monitoring; run upgrades and rollbacks without interrupting live service.
- Built an offline, on-premise edition (Docker bundle with a Windows installer) so a location keeps taking orders when its internet drops; wrote the install guide and boot smoke-test checklist used at setup.
- Integrated a payment gateway with tokenized checkout and signed webhook verification, and completed a PCI DSS SAQ A self-assessment with no outstanding blockers.
- Applied AI where it genuinely helps a merchant: conversational ordering, voice order capture, automated reading of supplier invoices into the books, and sales analytics.
Kitchen Supervisor - Chef on Call - London, ON
(2022-11 - 2026-03)
Led the kitchen team through daily production, keeping output on time and accurate every shift in a high-volume operation.
- Trained new staff on equipment handling, knife skills, safe lifting, hygiene, and sanitation — the same patient, step-by-step approach a merchant needs at a POS install.
- Maintained inventory, FIFO stock rotation, and ordering; received deliveries and lifted, carried, and stored supplies up to 50 lbs.
- Supported bookkeeping and accounts for the operation alongside kitchen duties.
