Backend Developer (Python + DevOps)

About the Role

We’re looking for a Python Backend Developer who can take full ownership — from writing robust APIs to deploying production-ready systems. You’ll work with Flask/Django, AWS Serverless (Lambda, API Gateway), and Terraform-based infrastructure, managing your own deployments without relying on a separate DevOps team.

What You’ll Do

• Build and maintain backend services using Python (Flask / Django)
• Design and deploy serverless and containerized architectures on AWS
• Manage CI/CD pipelines, Terraform infrastructure, and production rollouts
• Work with databases (PostgreSQL) and caching (Redis)
• Implement authentication (JWT/OAuth2), API versioning, and performance tuning
• Collaborate closely with mobile app frontend teams

Requirements

Required Skills

  • 2–3 years of experience in Python backend development
  • Hands-on with Flask or Django frameworks
  • Strong understanding of AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, S3, RDS, CloudWatch)
  • Experience with Terraform, Docker, and GitHub Actions / CI/CD
  • Comfort with database design, migrations, and optimization
  • Familiarity with serverless patterns and microservices

Bonus Skills

  • Experience with FastAPI or Celery
  • Exposure to IoT, BLE APIs, or hardware-integrated systems
  • Knowledge of multi-tenant Django apps or SaaS architectures
