**About Job:**As a Standard++ / Senior Python Engineer, you will be a core architect of our digital ecosystem. We aren’t just looking for someone to "write code"; we need a system thinker who understands how to scale services that communicate across complex environments. You’ll lead the charge in evolving our microservices architecture, ensuring our backend is as robust as it is fast. If you’re a Python expert who believes in the power of GRPC for performance and FastAPI for developer velocity, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Do;

• Architect & Build: Design and implement high-throughput microservices using FastAPI and Python 3.12+.
  • Optimize Communication: Lead the integration of gRPC protocols to facilitate low-latency, high-performance service-to-service communication.
  • Scale Microservices: Own the lifecycle of services within a distributed architecture, from initial design to containerization and deployment.
  • Bridge the Stack: While primarily backend-focused, you will occasionally collaborate on or build out intuitive interfaces using Vue.js.
  • Technical Leadership: Conduct rigorous code reviews, mentor mid-level engineers, and champion best practices in CI/CD and automated testing.
  • Hybrid Collaboration: Work closely with product teams in a hybrid capacity, balancing focused deep-work days with high-energy in-office brainstorming.

What You’ll Bring;

• Python Mastery: Extensive professional experience with Python, with Minimum 4 years of experience.
  • Modern Frameworks: Expert-level knowledge of FastAPI (or similar high-performance frameworks like Starlette,Flask, Django).
  • System Design: Deep understanding of Microservices Architecture, including service discovery, API gateways, and event-driven patterns.
  • Interface Protocols: Proven experience implementing gRPC and Protocol Buffers alongside traditional RESTful APIs.
  • Frontend Bonus: Proficiency in Vue.js (or a strong desire to apply your logic to the frontend) is a significant plus.
  • DevOps Mindset: Comfortable with Docker, Kubernetes, and managing cloud-native infrastructure.
  • Pragmatism: The ability to choose the right tool for the job, balancing technical debt with the need for speed.

Why Join Us;

• Global Exposure: Work daily with international teams and founders from Europe and Asia.

• AI-Driven Development: We integrate AI into our DNA, from how we write code to the strategic solutions we provide to clients.

• Continuous Evolution: Monthly budget for courses and certifications to keep your skills at the cutting edge.
