About The Role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (SSE) with strong hands-on experience in building microservices-based applications using Python and FastAPI, deploying them on AWS using Docker, Kubernetes, and Knative. The ideal candidate will have strong fundamentals in cloud-native architecture, CI/CD, and distributed systems. You will be part of a cross-functional team that owns its services end-to-end—from design and development to deployment and monitoring.

What would you do?

• Design, develop, and deploy microservices using Python (preferably with FastAPI) in a cloud-native environment.
• Containerize applications using Docker and orchestrate them using Kubernetes and Knative.
• Implement and maintain high-quality, testable, and scalable code with a focus on performance and security.
• Collaborate with DevOps and platform engineers to implement CI/CD pipelines and enforce coding standards.
• Leverage AWS services (especially Aurora, Postgres, and DynamoDB) for backend storage and compute.
• Integrate observability and monitoring tools (such as Prometheus and Grafana) to ensure system health.
• Ensure secure coding practices by using tools like Sonar, Snyk, and GitHub Enterprise.
• Package and publish internal Python libraries using Poetry and Artifactory.
• Follow best practices in Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and microservice architecture.
• Collaborate with team members in Agile/Scrum ceremonies, contributing to sprint planning and retrospectives.
  
  
  

Who you are? / What we expect:

• 5–8 years of professional experience in backend development using Python.
• Strong experience building RESTful APIs using FastAPI or similar frameworks.
• Hands-on experience with AWS, including services like Aurora (Postgres) and DynamoDB.
• Proficient in Docker, Kubernetes, and Knative (Knative experience is mandatory).
• Familiar with Istio or other service mesh technologies.
• Solid understanding of CI/CD, Git workflows, and tools like GitHub Enterprise, Sonar, and Snyk.
• Experience packaging Python libraries using Poetry and publishing them to Artifactory.
• Exposure to observability stacks like Grafana, Prometheus, and log monitoring tools.
• Comfortable working in Agile development environments and collaborating across distributed teams.
• Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools - Terraform and AWS CDK.
  
  
  

The icing on the cake:

• Exposure to MLflow, Kubeflow, or AWS SageMaker.
• Familiarity with multi-tenant architecture and best practices.
• Experience running Jupyter notebooks in containerized environments.
• Exposure to observability stacks like Grafana, Prometheus, and log monitoring tools.
