  • Mentor engineers, elevate engineering practices, and foster a culture of ownership and quality.
  • Design and build features across the stack with an emphasis on Python services (Flask/FastAPI) and Angular UI.
  • Define and evolve APIs (REST; GraphQL experience is a plus).
  • Uphold high standards for testing, CI/CD, observability, and performance.
  • Troubleshoot production issues and drive root-cause fixes.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to align technical decisions with product outcomes.

  • Strong leadership experience (team/tech lead, mentorship, and architectural guidance).
  • Expert Python skills and deep frontend experience.
  • Professional Angular (v2+) experience with TypeScript.
  • Solid grounding in RESTful API design; frameworks such as Flask/FastAPI.
  • Proficiency with modern testing, code review, Git, and Agile delivery.
  • SQL proficiency; familiarity with service integration patterns.
  • Excellent communication; fluent in English.
Nice to have
  • GraphQL.
  • Node.js/TypeScript ecosystem familiarity.
  • Messaging middleware (e.g., RabbitMQ/ActiveMQ).
  • CI/CD pipelines and cloud/container tech (Docker/K8s).
