The Role
We are looking for a Python developer who is curious, practical, and eager to grow within a strong engineering team. You should be comfortable writing Python, interested in backend systems, and willing to work in a fast-paced environment where reliability, security, and performance matter. You don't need to have mastered every part of our stack already, but you should be excited to learn, ask good questions, and build production-quality systems with support from experienced engineers.
You will work with our Python team to build secure, robust, and high-performance microservices that support critical revenue operations — including billing, tax calculation, customer commitments, and AI-powered automation. Over time, you will grow into owning parts of these services, helping us solve complex problems as the company scales.
People rely on our products to communicate every day, so we care deeply about resiliency, reliability, and thoughtful engineering.
