About The Role:

• Interact directly with other engineering and product teams
• Automate testing of the code you contribute
• Review pull requests on a daily basis

Qualifications:

• Strong understanding of Python and proficiency in various Python libraries and frameworks
• Experience with distributed systems
• Prior experience in a true Senior Software Engineering role (i.e. a high-level of proficiency in your area, the ability to work independently and capacity to mentor more junior team members) 
• Solid experience with integrations and the ability to quickly get up to speed on on new APIs
• A deep understanding of computer science and software engineering fundamentals
• A preference for simple yet fully functional and extensible solutions
• Ability to quickly iterate without compromising on quality

Great to have, but not required:

• Experience with FastAPI and Pydantic
