We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Python Developer to join our growing engineering team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in building scalable web applications and APIs using Python frameworks such as Django and FastAPI. A deep interest or hands-on exposure to Generative AI (GenAI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) will be highly preferred, as the role may involve integrating or developing AI-driven components into production systems.

Key Responsibilities :

Application Development :

- Design, build, test, and deploy robust, scalable, and secure backend services using Python and modern frameworks (Django, FastAPI).

API Development & Integration :

- Develop RESTful and asynchronous APIs for consumption by internal services and external clients, ensuring high performance and responsiveness.

AI Integration :

- Work on integrating Generative AI models and LLMs (e.g., OpenAI, Cohere, Hugging Face Transformers) into applications, including prompt engineering, fine-tuning, or API orchestration.

Database Management :

- Design and optimize database schemas and write efficient queries using PostgreSQL, MySQL, or NoSQL databases like MongoDB.

Code Quality & Review :

- Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code. Participate in code reviews and ensure adherence to best practices and coding standards.

DevOps & CI/CD :

- Collaborate with DevOps teams to manage deployment pipelines, containerization (Docker), and continuous integration workflows.

Security & Performance :

- Identify bottlenecks and bugs, and devise solutions to mitigate and address them. Ensure application security, data protection, and high performance.

Collaboration & Communication :

- Work in an agile team environment, participate in daily stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives, and provide technical input during architectural discussions.

Required Technical Skills :

- Strong hands-on programming experience in Python (3.x).

- Proficiency in at least one web framework : Django or FastAPI.

- Experience building RESTful APIs and working with asynchronous programming in Python (e.g., asyncio, aiohttp).

- Strong understanding of object-oriented programming, design patterns, and software engineering principles.

- Experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB.

- Familiarity with unit testing frameworks such as pytest or unittest.

Preferred/Desirable Skills :

- Experience working with Generative AI, LLMs, or NLP frameworks (e.g., OpenAI GPT, Hugging Face Transformers).

- Experience with Docker and container orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes).

- Exposure to CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI.

- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), especially serverless compute or managed AI/ML services.
