  • Continuously
    profile, monitor, and optimize
    system performance, scalability, and reliability.
  • Contribute to architecture decisions, code reviews, and the overall technical direction of the team.

Who You Are

    Backend or Full-Stack Engineer
    .
  • Expert-level proficiency in
    Python
    , with deep experience in
    Django and/or FastAPI
    .
  • (Bonus) Solid knowledge of

    and related ecosystems.
  • Strong foundation in
    RESTful API design, data modeling, caching, and cloud infrastructure
    (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
  • A
    self-starter
    who thrives in a fast-paced environment and can operate independently.
  • Passionate about
    code quality, performance, and scalability
    .
  • Experienced in using
    AI-assisted coding tools
    to streamline development workflows.
  • Committed to writing
    clean, maintainable, and well-tested code

    AI developer tools (Claude Code, Copilot, etc.)
    to supercharge your productivity.
