Job summary

Victory Live is seeking a Mid-Level Software Engineer to build and maintain features across our Python and FastAPI services. You’ll own well-scoped pieces of our B2B marketplace and ticketing platform end to end, from design through production, collaborating with senior engineers who’ll help you level up.

You’ll work with FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy, Alembic, Celery, and pytest in a PostgreSQL/Redis/Kafka environment, writing tests, tracing production issues, and shipping reliable code.

Qualifications

• 2–4 years building production software, with at least 1–2 years in Python.
• Comfortable building REST APIs with FastAPI and validating data with Pydantic.
• Solid grasp of pytest and test-driven development.
• Working knowledge of SQLAlchemy, relational databases, and database migrations.

Responsibilities

• Ship features. Build and maintain services in FastAPI, from a scoped design through code review to production.
• Write tests that hold. Cover your code with pytest so regressions show up in CI, not in production.
• Debug production issues. Use logs, metrics, and Datadog dashboards to trace bugs to root cause.
• Work within our data layer. Write efficient SQLAlchemy queries and Alembic migrations that don't lock production tables.
• Handle background and async work. Build and monitor Celery tasks and async FastAPI endpoints.
• Take code review seriously. Review teammates' PRs and act on feedback you get on your own.
• Use AI tooling daily. Pair with Claude Code and Copilot for scaffolding, tests, and debugging, and learn where to trust them and where not to.
