Job Description:
- We are building a next-generation virtual assistant platform that enables natural and responsive voice and chat-based interactions. The platform integrates with internal and external systems to deliver seamless, real-time user experiences at scale.
- As part of our growing team, we're looking for a skilled Python Backend Engineer to help us build reliable, high-performance backend systems.
Role Overview:
- This role involves developing robust backend services and integrating them into a scalable system architecture. You'll work on a variety of microservices that support voice and chat experiences, as well as contribute to API development, third-party system integrations, and performance optimizations.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and maintain Python-based backend services.
- Build and integrate scalable APIs and microservices.
- Work with cross-functional teams on system design and backend workflows.
- Optimize backend performance using distributed technologies (e.g., caching, message queues).
- Collaborate on integration with third-party platforms and services.
Qualifications:
- 7+ years of Python development experience in production environments
- Strong experience building asynchronous, API-driven microservices
- Proficiency with scalable backend architectures and system integration
- Familiarity with distributed systems (e.g., queues, caching, search indexing)
- Bonus: Experience with AI/LLM APIs or interest in learning AI-focused frameworks
What We're Looking For:
- Strong engineering fundamentals and problem-solving skills
- Experience working in agile, cross-functional teams
- Solid communication and collaboration skills
- Comfort with modern development and deployment tools (e.g., containers, CI/CD)
Our Technical Environment Includes:
- Modern Python frameworks for asynchronous API development
- Distributed systems technologies for caching, data search, and messaging
- Containerized infrastructure and cloud-based CI/CD pipelines
- Select integration with AI and language model APIs (where relevant)
