We're hiring an
IT and Odoo Specialist to own and evolve the Odoo, IT, and internal-dashboard systems that already run day-to-day at Haply.
About Haply
Haply Robotics builds the world's most precise haptic devices.
Behind the hardware and software is a small, fast-moving team that runs on Odoo for ERP, CRM, inventory, projects, and accounting; Google Workspace for identity; Git Lab for code and CI; and a constellation of dashboards and integrations that tie it all together.
About the Role
We're hiring this role because much of the IT, Odoo, and dashboards work has historically been picked up alongside other responsibilities by team members who have since moved into management.
The systems are in place.
The Odoo instance is configured and tuned to how we work.
Dashboards are live and being used daily.
The CI, identity, and onboarding processes already exist and are documented.
What's missing is a dedicated owner for that surface as the company grows.
You're joining to take on those projects within a structure that's already established.
Not to invent everything from scratch, and not to maintain a static system either.
Your job is to keep the existing setup healthy, fill in the next round of integrations and dashboards as they come up, and become the team's first point of contact for everything Odoo, IT, and internal-tools related.
What You'll Do
- Odoo (about 40%)
- Day-to-day administration of our Odoo instance (haply. odoo. com): users, permissions, modules, Studio fields, automation rules.
- Maintain and extend our existing Odoo Studio customisations: sale, stock. lot, project, timesheet, CRM extensions.
- Own data quality across CRM, inventory, project, and accounting. Keep clean joins between Odoo, Post Hog, Git Lab, and Google Workspace.
- Be the team's first point of contact for Odoo questions and small fixes.
- Internal IT (about 25%)
- Workstation setup and onboarding/offboarding (Windows 11 mostly, some mac OS / Linux).
- Google Workspace identity and access management (OAuth-driven SSO into Odoo and other tools).
- Networking, AV, conference rooms, printers, the office Wi-Fi gremlins.
- Maintain a sane inventory of laptops, devices, and lab hardware.
- Dashboards and integrations (about 25%)
- Maintain and extend our existing internal dashboards (Next. js + App Router, Type Script, Tailwind, shadcn/ui, Recharts) that fuse Odoo, Git Lab, and Post Hog data.
- Connect Odoo to other systems via XML-RPC / JSON-RPC and lightweight Node/Type Script or Python scripts.
- Keep our timesheet, project, and SR&ED data flowing cleanly across systems.
- Dev Ops-adjacent (about 10%)
- Light Dev Ops work in our Git Lab environment: pipelines, runners, environment configuration, secrets management.
- Help maintain Tauri auto-updater pipelines, Conventional-Commits / semantic-release flows, and multi-platform CI on Windows, Linux, and mac OS.
- Set up and run scheduled jobs and lightweight automations.
What We're Looking For
- 2 to 4+ years in an IT, internal-tools, junior Dev Ops, or Odoo administration role.
- Hands-on with Odoo (administration, Studio, basic module / view tweaks). Even mid-level Odoo experience is a strong signal.
- Comfortable with git, Git Lab, and PR/review workflows.
- Strong written communication. You document what you change.
- Service mindset. You treat colleagues' issues as real work, not interruptions.
- Comfortable stepping into an existing system, learning its conventions, and improving it from inside.
- Bilingual French/English. Working environment is bilingual.
- Nice to have
- Python (for Odoo modules, integration scripts, lightweight automation).
- Google Workspace administration / OAuth / SSO experience.
- Networking fundamentals (DNS, VPN, basic switching/Wi-Fi).
- Exposure to Post Hog, Grafana, or other observability/analytics tooling.
- Familiarity with XML-RPC, JSON-RPC, REST integration patterns.
- Comfort with Windows + Power Shell and bash + Linux.
- Interest in robotics, hardware, or haptics. You'll be working alongside engineers who love the domain.
- Why Join
- You're not starting from a blank page. Odoo is configured, dashboards are live, IT processes exist. You join to own and evolve them.
- High-leverage role. What you maintain and improve is used daily by a small but demanding team.
- Mix of human and technical work, never just one or the other.
- On-site in Montreal: modern downtown office, real coffee.
