Python Developer Jobs in Toronto, ON (NOW HIRING)

As a Python & SQL Developer, you will design, build, and support scalable backend and data‑driven solutions that enable modern applications and analytics platforms. In this 1‑year fixed‑term role, you will work closely with engineers, data teams, architects, and business stakeholders to deliver robust APIs, database‑driven services, and automation solutions. The role emphasizes strong Python development, SQL expertise, solution architecture, and people skills, with exposure to modern GenAI‑enabled capabilities where relevant.

• Design, develop, test, and debug backend services and APIs using Python and FastAPI, ensuring high performance, reliability, and maintainability
• Build server‑side logic, integrate RESTful services, and support microservice‑based architectures aligned with enterprise standards
• Work extensively with SQL‑based data sources, writing, optimizing, and maintaining complex queries, views, and stored procedures to support application logic, reporting, and data enrichment
• Develop scripts and services for data extraction, transformation, processing, and system automation, integrating both relational (SQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB) databases
• Contribute to solution and application architecture, including system design, integration patterns, data flows, and scalability considerations
• Collaborate with architects and senior engineers to ensure solutions are secure, well‑designed, and production‑ready
• Support GenAI‑enabled features where applicable, such as prompt design, retrieval from structured data, and vectorized search, without being focused on model development
• Partner closely with cross‑functional teams and stakeholders, applying strong people and communication skills to translate requirements, explain technical concepts, and support delivery from design through production
