- Strong experience with Django, FastAPI, or Flask; REST API design; PostgreSQL, SQL performance tuning, and data modeling.
- Experience with Docker, Kubernetes/GKE, GCP services, CI/CD, automated testing, and code quality tooling.

Ideal Candidate Profile
- Has led technical design and delivery of maintainable, production-grade Python services, with accountability for operational reliability as well as feature delivery.
- Can translate complex requirements into secure, scalable solutions and establish engineering practices through reviews and technical guidance.
