About the role

We are looking for a Senior Python Developer to design and build scalable microservices and REST APIs, working closely with Product, DevOps, and Frontend teams.

The mandatory requirements are 4+ years of backend development with Python, experience building REST APIs and microservices, PostgreSQL and ORM frameworks, testing with Pytest, Git, and an upper-intermediate English level.

Must haves

  • 4+ years of professional backend software development experience using Python.
  • Deep understanding of Python core concepts (OOP, functional programming, memory management, async/concurrency, and data structures).
  • API & Microservices: Proven track record of building and deploying production-grade REST APIs and distributed microservices architectures.
  • Databases: Strong proficiency with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL) and ORM frameworks.
  • Testing: Commitment to writing unit, integration, and end-to-end tests using frameworks like Pytest.
  • Version Control: Advanced proficiency with Git and collaborative development workflows (Pull Requests, branching strategies, code reviews).
  • Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

  • CI/CD & DevOps Tools: Solid hands-on experience with Docker (writing optimized Dockerfiles and Docker Compose).
  • Highly desirable experience setting up and managing GitHub Actions workflows for automated testing and deployment.

What you will do

  • Architecture & Development: Design, build, and maintain high-performance, scalable microservices and RESTful APIs using Python (e.g., FastAPI, Django, or Flask).
  • Code Quality & Technical Standards: Write clean, readable, maintainable, and well-tested code. Conduct peer code reviews and promote modern Python practices (type hinting, async processing, design patterns).
  • Containerization & CI/CD: Containerize applications using Docker and build/optimize automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for seamless deployment.
  • Database Management: Design schema models, write optimized SQL queries, and work with ORMs (e.g., SQLAlchemy) alongside relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL databases.
  • System Integration & Scalability: Integrate third-party APIs and services while ensuring low latency, high availability, and strong security standards.
  • Mentorship & Collaboration: Collaborate with frontend engineers, product managers, and DevOps teams; mentor junior and mid-level engineers to elevate the team's overall technical capability.

Perks

  • Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
  • Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
  • Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
  • Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
  • Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized
  • Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location

FAQ

Have any questions?

What is the work format and schedule?

We are a remote-first company, so all our positions are remote. Schedules are flexible, but the main requirement is to have an overlap with your client’s schedule to ensure smooth collaboration. Specific details depend on the project and are discussed during the interview process.

What level of English is required?

We look for Upper-Intermediate (B2) proficiency or higher. Since you will be collaborating with international teams and global clients (including Fortune 500 companies), English is a part of your daily work.

Does AgileEngine provide work equipment?

It depends on your location. We provide equipment in Ukraine, Poland, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Portugal, Spain, and India. In the USA, equipment is usually provided by the client; otherwise, you will be expected to use your own setup.

What opportunities for professional growth do you offer?

We support continuous growth through personalized development paths tailored to each expert. Also, you can expect:

  • An annual learning and development budget
  • Internal workshops, tech talks, and mentorship programs
  • Opportunities to switch projects or grow into new roles over time

What does a typical team look like, and what tools do you use?

Teams vary by project, but you’ll usually work with a mix of experts across different fields, along with a delivery or project manager who supports collaboration and onboarding.

For day-to-day work, teams commonly use tools like Jira and Google Workspace, along with communication platforms such as Google Chat. Depending on the client, you may also work with Slack, Confluence, Notion, or similar tools.
