- Drive code reviews, ensure clean code practices, and mentor junior developers.

- Stay updated with the latest tech trends and propose improvements.

Requirements :

- 5 years of hands-on experience in Software development.

- Strong proficiency in Python (experience with Flask and ML techniques preferred).

- Solid understanding of databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL/MySQL).

- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and containerization (Docker).

- Exposure to building scalable REST APIs and microservices.

- Ability to lead and mentor a small team, ensuring delivery within timelines.

- Startup experience or experience in small teams (ability to work in fast-paced, unstructured environments).

- Strong problem-solving skills and ownership mindset.

What We Offer :

- Opportunity to work directly with the founding team and shape the product roadmap.

- Fast-paced learning environment with high ownership.

- Competitive compensation with growth opportunities.
