Following a successful profitability push, they're now entering a growth phase and expanding their product offerings. There's also ongoing work rewriting their Django monolith into modern microservices/FAST API based architecture.

✅ Collaborating with product and engineering leads to solve complex problems
Ideal Requirements:
2-5 years' backend engineering experience (ideally Python, but open to other languages)

Excellent communication skills and willingness to take initiative
Nice to have:
FastAPI, GraphQL, gRPC
Experience with AWS and CI/CD tooling
This is a great opportunity to join a profitable, product-focused company with ambitions to scale in 2025. You'll be surrounded by experienced engineers and given the tools to take ownership and grow your career.
