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.
