Job Description
Job Requirements
- Bachelors Degree at a minimum.
- 6+ years of backend engineering experience (or equivalent), with at least 2 years in a technical leadership role- Lech Lead, Senior Engineer leading a team or similar.
- Strong Python fluency. You’ve built and operated production services in Python- ideally with FastAPI or similar async frameworks.
- Deep relational database experience. You understand schema design, indexing strategies, query performance, data integrity constraints and migration patterns; PostgreSQL preferred.
- Experience designing and building APIs that other teams depend on. You think about contracts, versioning, backward compatibility and clear error semantics.
- Solid understanding of data modeling for complex business domains. You’ve worked in systems where the domain logic is the hard part, not just the infrastructure.
- Experience with service-oriented or event-driven architectures. You’ve built or decomposed systems that communicate through well-defined interfaces and domain events.
- You’ve built systems where events can arrive out of order or twice- and you design for idempotency, retries and safe backfills.
- You’ve worked on systems with complex state machines, workflow orchestration or multi-step business processes.
- You think about schema evolution, backward compatibility and how systems change over time without breaking consumers.
- You can take a technical spec or architecture document and turn it into a clear execution plan with milestones, dependencies and risk callouts.
- You’ve led small teams (3-8 engineers) through complex projects and shipped on time. You know how to scope aggressively and cut scope wisely.
- You default to pragmatism over perfection. You know when to build it right and when to build it now.
- You communicate technical complexity clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
- You’re opinionated about code quality but not dogmatic. You care about readability, testability and maintainability.
- You’re excited about AI-assisted development and actively use modern tools to improve your own workflow.
