Summary

 

Python Application/Backend/Full-Stack Engineers with strong expertise in Python (OOP), backend development (FastAPI, Flask, APIs, async processing, and database integrations), and familiarity with agentic coding tools. Data Engineering experience (e.g., PySpark/ETL) is a plus.

 

Senior Engineer – Job Profile

•             Primary Target: We are looking for strong Python Application / Backend / Full-Stack Engineers.

o            They must be highly proficient in Python ( OOPS is a must) and backend development (e.g., FastAPI, Flask, APIs, async processing, database integrations).

o            Familiarity with Agentic coding tool and know how to leverage them for day to day tasks/activities.

•             Data Engineering (Downgraded to "Nice-to-Have"): Deep data pipeline experience (like PySpark/complex ETL) is now an added bonus, not a requirement.

•             Profiles to Avoid: Do not source pure, heavy Data Engineers who only have a surface-level, high-level understanding of APIs. The candidate must be a solid coder/application builder first.
