Automotive Application Developer (Experience Required)

Bob Mills is seeking an Automotive Application Developer / Software Developer / Internal Tools Developer to design, integrate, and maintain the software systems powering our sales, service, inventory, and finance operations. In this role, you will bridge the gap between our core Dealer Management System (DMS), customer-facing digital retailing platforms, and internal reporting tools - ensuring real-time data accuracy and smooth workflows across every store in the group.

About Us: Bob Mills Auto Group is a family-owned and operated automotive group proud to serve the South Carolina community. We believe our people are our greatest asset. We treat our employees like family, offering a high-energy environment where your hustle is met with genuine support and professional growth.

Job Type: Full Time Pay: $70,000 - $90,000 per year Work Location: Onsite to start; hybrid may be considered once you know the business

What You'll Build:

Partnering directly with our dealership teams, you’ll spot operational bottlenecks and ship software that eliminates them. Your initial projects include:

• Reconditioning Tracker: An end-to-end platform tracking used vehicles from acquisition to frontline-ready, featuring real-time stage timers, bottleneck alerts, and cost tracking.
• Service Scheduling & Check-In: A modern booking engine with dynamic advisor capacity, mobile check-in, transparent menus, and automated SMS/email reminders.
• Mobile Floor Tools: Mobile-first task boards, cross-department handoff alerts, and digital approvals to replace paper clipboards and whiteboards.
• Live Executive Dashboards: Real-time reporting tracking recon turn-times, service throughput, appointment show rates, and vendor cost savings.
• Ecosystem Integrations: Seamless REST API and data feed connections linking our DMS (Dealertrack), CRM, inventory, phone/SMS, accounting, and OEM systems.

Qualifications

• Proven Builder: 2+ years of experience building and shipping production web applications from scratch.
• Full-Stack Mastery: Strong command of a modern stack (e.g., TypeScript/JavaScript with React and Node.js, Python, or C#/.NET).
• Data & API Fluency: Solid experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or MySQL), data modeling, and building/consuming REST APIs.
• Cloud Deployment: Hands-on experience deploying, scaling, and maintaining applications on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
• Self-Starter Mentality: You thrive with high autonomy, can carry a project from a blank whiteboard to live production, and know how to translate technical tradeoffs into plain English for non-technical managers.
• Security-First Mindset: Strong grasp of access control, application security, and handling sensitive customer data.
