• Expert-level Python skills- you know your way around async, profiling, and clean architecture.
• Experience with extending and embedding the CPython interpreter
• Strong debugging instincts - you don't guess; you diagnose.
• Experience with refactoring or migrating legacy systems (monolith to modular/microservices).
• Solid understanding of data modeling, APIs, and performance optimization.
• Familiarity with modern cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset - you build trust through clarity and delivery.

Nice to Have

• C++ experience, especially with system-level integrations or bridging legacy components into Python.
• Background in analytics, ETL pipelines, or high-performance data processing.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines, observability tooling, and infrastructure-as-code.
• Open-source contributions or a track record of improving developer tooling.

Why You'll Love Working Here

• You'll own big, messy,meaningfulproblems - and the space to solve them your way.
• Work with seasoned engineers who value curiosity, craftsmanship, and straight talk.
• Competitive pay, flexible work options, and a culture that prioritizes autonomy and impact.
