Scope

• We are seeking a highly skilled Python Developer with a strong background in distributed systems, DevOps practices, and Test‑Driven Development (TDD). The ideal candidate will be proficient in event‑driven architectures using Kafka, familiar with Java‑based microservices, and experienced with NoSQL databases (preferably Snowflake).

• You’ll collaborate with cross‑functional teams to design, develop, and deploy scalable, high‑performance backend services — and optionally contribute to front‑end components (React, Node.js) or Generative AI‑driven features in our product ecosystem.

Our current technical environment

• Software: Python, Java, Springboot, React, Gradle, GIT, Hibernate, Rest API, OAuth

• Application Architecture: Scalable, Resilient, event driven, secure multi‑tenant Microservices architecture

• Frameworks/Others: Kubernetes, Kafka, Elasticsearch, Spark, NOSQL, RDBMS, Springboot, Gradle GIT, Ignite

What you’ll do

• Design, develop, and maintain robust Python‑based backend services and APIs.

• Build and integrate event streaming solutions using Apache Kafka for real‑time data pipelines.

• Collaborate with Java teams to develop and maintain hybrid Python‑Java microservices.

• Implement Test‑Driven Development (TDD) practices and ensure high code coverage and maintainability.

• Design and optimize NoSQL data models (preferably Snowflake, MongoDB, or DynamoDB).

• Develop and automate CI/CD pipelines using DevOps tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker, Kubernetes).

• Collaborate with Data Engineering and AI teams to integrate analytics, ML, or Generative AI modules.

• Contribute to architectural design and performance optimization discussions.

• Optionally, support front‑end development in React.js or Node.js when needed for full‑stack integration.

What we are looking for

• 12+ years of professional experience in software development. Strong proficiency in Python (Flask, FastAPI, or Django frameworks).

• Solid understanding of event‑driven systems and Apache Kafka. Hands‑on experience with Java (Spring Boot or similar frameworks).

• Experience with DevOps tooling — Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring, and deployment automation. Expertise in NoSQL databases (Snowflake preferred; MongoDB, Cassandra, or DynamoDB acceptable).

• Practical experience with Test‑Driven Development (TDD) and automated testing frameworks (pytest, unittest, JUnit).

• Strong grasp of software design principles, RESTful APIs, and microservices architecture.
