You approach software development with a user-centered, product-focused mindset and leverage modern AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity, software quality, and user outcomes.
What You'll Do:
Software Development
  • Design, develop, test, and maintain applications and services using Python.
  • Build and support RESTful APIs; experience with FastAPI, OpenAPI/Swagger, or similar frameworks is preferred.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and scalable code following established engineering best practices.
  • Participate in code reviews and help maintain high standards for quality, consistency, and reliability.
  • Improve application performance, automation, and development processes through continuous refinement and innovation.

  • Analyze and optimize database performance using indexing, query tuning, and execution plan analysis.
  • Troubleshoot database issues and support production problem resolution.
  • Monitor scheduled jobs, data processing workflows, and system integrations to ensure reliable operation.
  • Collaborate with database administrators and infrastructure teams to maintain performance, availability, and data integrity.

Collaboration and Technical Leadership
  • Partner with business stakeholders and technical teams to understand requirements, evaluate tradeoffs, and deliver effective solutions.
  • Participate in architecture, design, engineering, and change management discussions.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation, including system architecture, data flows, process diagrams, and operational procedures.
  • Mentor junior engineers through technical guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing.
  • Help establish and maintain Python development standards and engineering best practices.
  • Take ownership of technical challenges while balancing user experience, business needs, reliability, security, and long-term maintainability.

Who You Are:
You enjoy solving challenging problems and building software that delivers meaningful value. You are comfortable working across the full software development lifecycle-from requirements and design through implementation, deployment, and production support.
You communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences, value collaboration, and take pride in delivering reliable, maintainable solutions.
Required Qualifications:
  • Professional experience developing software with Python.
  • Experience working with Microsoft SQL Server, including complex queries, stored procedures, functions, and performance optimization.
  • Experience designing and consuming RESTful APIs.
  • Strong understanding of software engineering principles, design patterns, testing practices, and source control.
  • Ability to analyze complex technical and business problems and develop practical, scalable solutions.

How You Work:
  • Curious and eager to learn new technologies, systems, and business domains.
  • Builds institutional knowledge to better understand users, systems, and organizational goals.
  • Takes ownership, works independently, and knows when to seek guidance.
  • Communicates clearly and collaborates effectively across technical and business teams.
  • Values documentation, maintainability, and long-term system health alongside feature delivery.

How You Think:

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with FastAPI, OpenAPI/Swagger, or similar frameworks.
  • Experience mentoring developers or providing technical leadership.
  • Experience working in Agile environments.
  • Experience with enterprise applications, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, or containerized deployments.
