Job description

Overview CST/EST ONLY

Note : This is a W2 only role — C2C, C2H will not be considered

We are seeking a skilled and curious Application Developer to join a high-impact engineering team supporting enterprise-scale applications. This role sits at the intersection of traditional software development and next-generation AI-assisted engineering. You will build, maintain, and extend Python-based applications backed by relational databases, while also leveraging cutting-edge agentic development tools — including Claude Code — to accelerate delivery, automate workflows, and solve complex problems in novel ways.

The ideal candidate is fluent in Python and SQL, comfortable with modern software design patterns, and genuinely excited about the shift toward AI-native development practices. You understand that writing great code now means knowing how to guide, validate, and orchestrate AI-generated output as confidently as you write it yourself.

Application Development

• Design, develop, test, and deploy Python-based applications and microservices in a cloud-hosted or hybrid environment


• Write clean, well-documented, and testable code following SOLID principles and team coding standards


• Build and consume RESTful APIs; design robust data models and integration patterns


• Participate in code reviews, contributing constructive feedback and absorbing the same from peers


• Translate business and product requirements into scalable technical implementations


• Contribute to architecture discussions and help shape technical direction for new initiatives AI-Assisted & Agentic Development (Claude Code)
