Remote Python Jobs in Madison, WI (NOW HIRING)

Senior Full Stack Engineer - REMOTE 

We're looking for a  Senior Full Stack Engineer with an unwavering passion for working in autonomous, self-directed teams to build complex systems using lean, agile mindsets-this means delivering incremental business value with each sprint and enabling options at all scales.  For this project, you and your team will be collaborating with the federal partners to streamline reporting processes, aiming to enhance operational efficiency. 

At Flexion (an agile software company that's been delivering excellence for over 25 years), our company culture is built on autonomy, trust, and transparency. We empower teams to remain self-sufficient and self-directed by hiring people who can solve complex problems through collaboration-this means lending a hand and flexing your multi-skilled muscles as needed. Every member of a cross-functional team is a leader who takes responsibility for the entire team's success, mirroring the company's overall low-bureaucracy structure.

We believe that growth comes from working together-and that includes supporting each other through thoughtful, constructive feedback. Flexion team members are expected to help each other grow, challenge ideas respectfully, and integrate feedback as a normal part of the workday.

You'll be part of a multi-disciplinary, agile team tasked with building and improving a government data catalog used to inform decisions by the public and policymakers, drive innovation and economic activity, achieve agency missions, and strengthen the foundation of an open and transparent government.

• Swarming and pairing with your team to design, code, test, debug, deploy, and document software in an agile environment

• Tackle a wide variety of technical problems

• Exercise your full tool-belt of skills and experience 

You can deliver in small pieces as you go, while still thinking about how they fit into the whole. You welcome change as a positive (instead of viewing it as "rework") and never consider anything you deliver "final." Although you understand that what you deliver may not be complete, you never knowingly deliver something that is wrong or of poor quality. You actively contribute to a learning team culture, offering and receiving feedback with curiosity and respect.

You have: 

• 5+ years of application development experience

• A Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Computer Science or a related field or equivalent experience

• Production experience with modern data-oriented programming languages especially with Python 

• Flask for API experience

• Ability to write high-quality code efficiently

• Experience with Agile application development

• Knowledge and experience with several of the following:

• Bias towards test-first development practices like TDD and BDD.

Nice to Have(s):

• Experience with Data Standards or Meta Data Standards

• PyBase experience

• JavaScript experience

• Typescript experience 

• Opensearch experience

• Speak openly and honestly with your colleagues and clients about problems and proposed solutions

• Welcome and handle changing requirements and priorities with little or no warning

• Collaborate online in small groups about 50% of the time

• Offer and welcome constructive feedback as a tool for continuous team and individual growth

• Learn new practices and techniques as the situation demands

• Ensure the teams develop demonstrable software every week or two
