Architect Scalable Solutions: Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to define requirements, design architecture, and implement solutions that enhance the performance, reliability, and functionality of ML‑driven products.

Code Quality and Maintenance: Lead the development of backend components, ensuring adherence to best practices for code quality, performance optimisation, and maintainability. Maintain and refactor existing code to ensure high‑quality and efficient solutions.

CI/CD Pipeline Management: Set up and manage continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, ensuring automated testing, smooth deployments, and proper version control throughout the development lifecycle.

Mentorship and Technical Guidance: Mentor junior developers, providing technical leadership and promoting a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous learning within the team.

Collaborate with DevOps: Work with DevOps teams to optimise the infrastructure and ensure smooth deployment, scaling, and monitoring of backend services.

Troubleshooting and Performance Optimisation: Identify and resolve backend performance bottlenecks, bugs, and other challenges to ensure high availability and performance of the system.

Stay Current with Technologies: Continuously learn and explore emerging technologies, tools, and best practices in backend development, machine learning, and cloud infrastructure to enhance the team's capabilities.

Requirements:

Strong experience in backend Python development, with an emphasis on production‑grade software in dynamic, fast‑paced environments.

Familiarity with integrating and working with Machine Learning technologies such as transformers, vector databases, and related tools in backend systems.

In‑depth understanding of Python deployment best practices, including virtual environments, dependency management, containerization, and orchestrating Python‑based applications for production.

Solid experience designing and developing backend APIs and microservice architectures that scale with increasing data and usage demands.

Familiarity with AWS services like EC2, S3 and an ability to architect scalable backend solutions using AWS infrastructure.

Strong knowledge of continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) best practices and hands‑on experience setting up and managing automated deployment pipelines.

Experience with data pipeline tools such as Meltano, Airbyte, or similar platforms is a plus.

Excellent problem‑solving skills, with a proven ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex backend issues, performance bottlenecks, and bugs.
