About the Role:

The Hardware Deployment & Configuration Specialist is responsible for the internal preparation, configuration, and quality control of payment terminals and POS hardware prior to merchant deployment. This role plays a critical part in ensuring devices are properly RKI’d, file-built, tested, labeled, and shipped accurately. The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, process-driven, and organized, with a strong sense of accountability to ensure every device is fully functional and delivered to the correct destination.

Responsibilities:

Perform Remote Key Injection (RKI) on payment terminals and related devices.

Configure devices according to merchant file builds and deployment specifications.

Test hardware and payment functionality to confirm readiness.

Stage, prep, label, and package devices for shipment.

What Success Looks Like:

Deployment timelines are predictable and reliable, enabling sales, deployment, and support teams to plan with confidence and execute smooth merchant go-lives.

Operational errors, shipment mistakes, and hardware-related support escalations are materially reduced through disciplined process execution and inventory accuracy.

Internal stakeholders trust the build and staging process, benefiting from clean handoffs, audit-ready documentation, and consistent execution that protects the merchant experience.

As volume scales, the deployment function remains structured and controlled, reducing friction and allowing leadership and cross-functional teams to focus on higher-impact priorities.
