Job description

This freelance Python Developer position is your opportunity to deploy production code that reaches a massive audience. The thing worth noting is how much Lionsgate trusts you here — $88,000 - $115,000, technology ownership, and a long runway, all from 4 years in.

Key Responsibilities

• Build Initiative self-service tools so Lowell teams stop filing tickets for everything
• Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging Vue.js and Node.js
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
• Mentor newer mid-level hires on how Lionsgate actually wires Node.js together
• Reach into legacy REST API modules and leave them cleaner than you found them
• Catch the goal-oriented Linux regression in staging before it ever reaches Lowell customers

What You'll Bring

• Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal oversight
• A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat
• 4+ years of Docker reps, not just Docker exposure
• Solid understanding of technology best practices and industry standards
• Hands-on experience with modern REST API workflows and tooling
