We're hiring ten new team members in the next four months, and this role is critical in driving our growth.

Role Summary

We are seeking a Senior Backend Engineer with deep Python expertise to design and build robust, scalable microservices and APIs. You will contribute to the backbone of our platform, focusing on high-performance APIs, data pipelines, and event-driven services, while applying solid OOP principles and modern software architecture.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and contribute to architectural discussions
• Embrace new technologies, responsible AI-assisted development, and continuous learning
• Work in Agile / Scrum teams to deliver high-quality, maintainable solutions
