Job Description

We’re looking for a Staff Python Software Engineer who thrives on solving tough problems — not just building new features but understanding why systems behave the way they do and how to make them better. You’ll dig into legacy code, untangle complexity, and modernize critical systems while keeping business continuity intact. If you’ve ever looked at an old codebase and thought, “Challenge accepted,” you’ll feel right at home here. Dive deep into existing Python and legacy systems — debug, refactor, and elevate code quality without breaking what works. Design and implement scalable backend services and APIs. Analyze performance bottlenecks and drive measurable improvements. Collaborate across engineering, data, and product teams to modernize architecture and streamline deployments. Lead and mentor engineers in problem-solving, debugging, and sustainable design patterns. Shape system design decisions and drive modernization efforts with pragmatism and technical rigor.
