One of the sample apps shows exactly how to do this and also how to add controls.

There is too much code to copy/paste an example here, but in essence what you do is create a container for your pin and then use absolute positioning and/or animation translations to move the pin with the map.

This is all done in QML and javascript as far as I can tell.
