Summary
Zenika, an IT consultancy in Singapore, is hiring a Python backend consultant to design and build scalable microservices, event-driven systems, and data pipelines on client engagements. Core stack: FastAPI/Django/Flask, PostgreSQL/MySQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS/GCP/Azure with CI/CD and automated testing.
Is there a Zenika in you
Let's talk skills and passion first.
You thrive on building elegant, high-performance backend systems and data pipelines. You are a Python specialist who loves the language for its simplicity and expressiveness, but you possess an engineer's mindset-viewing code as a craft and architecture as an art. You care deeply about correctness, clean abstraction, and scalability. Whether you are optimizing a FastAPI async endpoint, designing a robust event-driven microservice, or orchestrating a complex data workflow, you take pride in software that is maintainable under the hood and highly reliable in production.
Your Role as a Zenika Consultant:
As a consultant, you'll work on client engagements. You will design and build robust, scalable backend systems while collaborating closely with client engineering teams to:
Architect & Bu ild: Design, develop, and maintain high-performance applications and microservices using modern Python frameworks (FastAPI, Django, or Flask)
Asynchronous & Event-Driven Systems:
Implement scalable concurrency patterns and integrate message brokers for real-time data streaming. API Excellence:
Design clean, contract-first APIs (REST, GraphQL, and/or gRPC) that are a joy for frontend teams and external partners to consume. Data Strat e gy:
Implement efficient data access layers and schema designs across relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL solutions. Engineering Standards:
Apply solid engineering practices including automated testing (PyTest), TDD (Test Driven Development), rigorous code reviews, and living documentation. Cloud & Automation:
Design and implement automated CI/CD pipelines and deploy cloud-native applications using Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud providers (AWS/GCP/Azuure) Leadership:
Participate in architectural discussions, advocate for Python best practices, and mentor junior engineers on client teams.
What You Bring Experience:
4+ years of professional software development experience with a strong focus on backend engineering. Python Mas t ery:
Deep knowledge of Python internals, async programming (asyncio), and writing clean, idiomatic, 'Pythonic' code. Architectural Depth:
Solid understanding of microservices architecture, RESTful design, event-driven patterns, and distributed systems. Testing & Quality:
A passion for software craftsmanship, clean code (SOLID, DRY), and writing robust test suites using tools like PyTest, Black, and Ruff/Flake8 DevOps & Containerization:
Hands-on experience with Docker and a 'you build it, you run it' mentality toward cloud infrastructure and deployment. C I /CD:
Experience designing, using, or optimizing automated delivery pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) Consulting Mindset:
Comfort working with diverse clients, explaining complex technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders, and adapting quickly to different team cultures.
