STRATEGIC MANDATE: At Scidecs, we do not merely deploy software; we architect the digital future of the world's most complex enterprises. As a Senior Odoo Technical Consultant, you are the vanguard of this mission. You will be responsible for translating high-stakes business requirements into resilient, scalable, and upgrade-safe technical architectures. Your work will directly impact the operational sovereignty of Tier-1 industrial clusters, global distributors, and high-growth service firms across India and the Middle East. This role requires a rare blend of deep engineering expertise, architectural foresight, and a relentless commitment to zero-defect delivery.TECHNOLOGICAL SOVEREIGNTY: We believe in the purity of the Odoo core. Your primary directive is to maintain 'core separation'—ensuring that every customization we build is modular, upgrade-safe, and isolated from the standard Odoo code. You will lead the development of complex functional extensions, from multi-entity financial engines to custom MRP II schedulers. You are expected to be an expert in Python, PostgreSQL optimization, and the Odoo ORM. You will oversee the deployment of high-availability cloud infrastructures on Odoo.sh, AWS, and GCP, ensuring that our clients' data is secure and their systems are performant under massive concurrent loads.
