PaymentsHub helps connect to Bluetooth card reader to perform contactless, chip insert or swipe transactions, to sign and tips on screen which will be processed in transaction, as well as void transaction/ full refunds. Intuit has external partner, ShopKeep who has opted to consume this framework to process payments for their Point of Sale (POS) system. New features being integrated into PaymentsHub Framework are to customize PaymentsHub framework such that it is configurable for external clients like ShopKeep, which includes configurable UI, support partial refunds, process merchant gift cards and give decrypted track2 data to perform further transactions on merchants’ system, make sign and tips on screen configurable for external clients, support Auth and capture, i.e. sign and tips on paper and process transaction at merchant closing time.
Develop new features in PaymentsHub framework for Intuit apps and/ or Intuit partners, like ShopKeep using Objective C or Swift.
Develop separate workspace for Intuit partners, which shares the same source code but has different access levels of files, such that all the files are not exposed in the framework.
Maintain Objective C- Swift interoperability in the framework.
Migrate PaymentsHub Swift code to latest versions of Swift such that it is up to date with latest releases.
Write automated shell scripts to generate universal fat binary of PaymentsHub to be consumed by Intuit partner apps.

Maintain PaymentsHub framework such that added new features does not affect internal Intuit apps, GoPayment and QuickBooks mobile.
Fix and keep track of reported framework issues or bugs using JIRA board in Agile environment.
Make architectural decisions of the new module to ensure maximum reusability of the code inside the framework, while ensuring minimum complexity.
Migration of entire third party PaymentsHub to new repository dedicated for third party partners only.
Removed extra dependencies of other frameworks from PaymentsHub SDK making it easier to be consumed by third party partners.
Write Integration Tests for each new API added into the framework such that all Jenkins jobs builds properly, and features are tested with appropriate test cases.
Communicate and gather requirements from Intuit partners, design and build features for them inside PaymentsHub framework.
Actively communicate with back end team to leverage new Refunds, Gift Card and Auth Capture APIs into the framework.
