Job Description
Company: SMTECH TECHNOLOGY — Kathmandu, Nepal
Engagement type: Consulting (Project-based to start, ongoing retainer possible)
Location: Remote / Hybrid (Kathmandu preferred, but open to international consultants)
About Us
SMTECH is a Kathmandu-based software company (est. 2013) serving 3,000+ clients across Nepal through our Smart ERP platform — covering POS, restaurant, retail, hotel management, and accounting software. We're expanding our Hotel Management module and are building OTA channel manager integrations. We're looking for an experienced consultant to guide us before and during development.
What We Need
We're looking for someone who deeply understands how hotels actually operate — front office, reservations, housekeeping, night audit, F&B/POS integration, group bookings, rate management — and who is also familiar with world-class hotel PMS systems (Oracle OPERA, Mews, Cloudbeds, IDS Next, Protel, or similar), so we can build a system that's both practical and competitive with the best in the industry.
Role & Responsibilities
- Review our existing Smart ERP hotel management module and identify gaps vs. industry-standard PMS systems
- Define must-have vs. nice-to-have features based on real hotel operational workflows
- Advise on system architecture, data flow, and integration points (PMS ↔ POS ↔ channel manager ↔ accounting)
- Guide our OTA channel manager integration strategy (we're currently evaluating RateGain-style API partnerships)
- Provide ongoing consultation during development — reviewing specs, testing workflows, answering developer questions
- Recommend fast, efficient approaches to get a competitive product to market without unnecessary delays
Ideal Background
- Experience in hotel operations (GM, revenue manager, front office/ops leadership) and/or
- Experience implementing or building hotel PMS/booking systems (OPERA, Mews, Cloudbeds, IDS Next, etc.)
- Familiarity with OTA integrations, channel managers, and rate parity management
- Prior consulting experience with software companies or hospitality tech vendors is a plus
- South Asian/Nepal hospitality market knowledge is a strong plus, but not required
Engagement Structure
- Phase 1: Paid discovery/audit (2–4 weeks) — feature gap analysis + prioritized roadmap
- Phase 2: Ongoing advisory retainer through development and post-launch
How to Apply
Interested consultants can send their profile/CV and relevant experience to [[email protected]/LinkedIn DM]. Please include examples of hotel systems you've worked with or hotels you've operated.
