Tech Lead – Internal Tools & Automation
Location: Onsite in Livermore, CA
About the Role
Ronbow is a fast-growing cabinetry company reinventing how the $300B home renovation market works. We're looking for a hands-on Lead Software Engineer to own and modernize the backbone systems that power our business — from ERP integrations to production workflows.
This is not a DevOps or IT support role — it's a builder role. You’ll lead the technical development of our internal tools, connect fragmented systems, and partner with production, sales, and operations to create scalable software that drives real outcomes in the physical world.
If you’re frustrated by messy workflows and half-working ERP logic — and you want to be the person who fixes it — we’d love to talk.
What You’ll Own
Architect, build, and refactor ERP-related tools and backend services
Streamline internal workflows for order management, production, and delivery
Connect and extend systems like Odoo via API integration and custom modules
Build simple front-end dashboards (React or similar) for internal users
Collaborate with production, sales, and operations to identify automation opportunities
Mentor junior developers (in-house or offshore) and lead small projects
What We Work With
Python, Node.js, JavaScript/TypeScript
SQL, GCP, basic data pipeline work
ERP systems: Odoo (current), NetSuite (potential), custom connectors
React (or any modern JS framework)
Git, Jira, Notion, Google Workspace
Physical systems integration (factory floor, barcode, etc.)
What You’ll Get
End-to-end ownership: define, build, and ship what matters
Direct impact: your work will touch orders, revenue, and real-world execution
Zero bureaucracy: no layers, no legacy politics — just code + outcome
Collaborative exec team: your input shapes product and operational strategy
A front-row seat to what it means to build the “Tesla of cabinetry”
What We’re Looking For
2+ years of full-stack or backend software development experience
Strong fundamentals in data modeling, API design, and business systems logic
Experience with ERP platforms (Odoo, NetSuite, SAP, or similar)
Comfortable leading technical projects independently
Builder mindset: you simplify, automate, and iterate — not just maintain
Fluent in English; Mandarin is a plus (some teammates speak Chinese)
Bonus If You Have
Prior experience working with manufacturing, supply chain, or factory systems
Built custom workflow tools or internal applications
Familiarity with barcode/label printing, warehouse logic, etc.
Startup experience or small-team autonomy
