Structured overview of role & requirements
About This Role
- Design and deliver scalable, secure Python applications and APIs for critical banking and financial-services journeys, from requirements through deployment and operational performance.
- Set engineering direction through technical and code reviews; guide Kubernetes, database, and CI/CD deployments while ensuring reliability, observability, security, and compliance.
- Translate complex requirements into maintainable services and mentor engineers in partnership with architecture, risk, and business stakeholders.
Minimum Requirements
- Work Experience Required: 8+ years of Python development, including 2+ years in a lead or architect role.
- Strong experience with Django, FastAPI, or Flask; REST API design; PostgreSQL, SQL performance tuning, and data modelling.
- Experience with Docker, Kubernetes/GKE, GCP services, CI/CD, automated testing, and code-quality tooling.
- Knowledge of secure coding (OWASP, IAM, secrets management, encryption) and system design (microservices, event-driven patterns, high availability, and disaster recovery).
Ideal Candidate Profile
- A senior technical lead or architect able to own service design through deployment and operational outcomes in a security- and compliance-conscious environment.
- Candidates with banking or financial-services experience, particularly trade confirmations or post-trade processing, align with the preferred domain background.
- Additional preferred signals include AI/LLM integration, RAG or document extraction, and Terraform or other infrastructure-as-code experience.
