This role directly manages and oversees all POS device repair operations. Key Responsibilities 1. POS Hardware Quality Assurance & Design Strategy Manufacturer Liaison: Serve as the main technical point of contact with all POS hardware manufacturers. Design Adherence & Vetting: Rigorously review and audit manufacturer design specifications and component lists to ensure strict adherence to the company's recommended designs, quality standards, and use of robust, reliable components. Design for Serviceability (DFS): Proactively recommend specific design updates, modifications, and material changes to manufacturers that simplify repair processes, reduce component costs, and improve the Mean Time to Repair (MTTR). Component Reliability: Evaluate and approve critical hardware components (e.g., batteries, screens, printers) based on reliability data, failure rates, and long-term supply stability. Failure Analysis: Partner with Engineering/Data teams to conduct root cause analysis (RCA) on recurring hardware failures and translate these findings into concrete, mandatory design improvements for manufacturers. 2.

Spare Part Management: Define and validate the list of required spare parts that must be provided by the manufacturer, ensuring they are the most critical and highest-failure-rate components suitable for the local repair environment. 3. POS Repair Operations Oversight Repair Strategy: Define the strategy and operational model for all POS device repair operations, including internal repair centers and outsourced service providers. Performance Management: Manage and monitor the performance of the repair function against key metrics, focusing intensely on reducing Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) and improving the First-Time Fix Rate. Process Standardization: Develop and enforce standardized repair procedures, diagnostics, and quality control (QC) protocols to ensure consistent, high-quality repair outputs across all channels.
