Python Full Stack Developer

Responsibilities

In this role, you will be responsible for developing responsive, user-friendly web interfaces using ReactJS and TypeScript. You will create reusable UI components with a component-based architecture using technologies like Hooks and Redux, while ensuring performance optimization, accessibility, and seamless user experiences. On the backend, you will design and develop RESTful APIs using Python frameworks, integrate frontend applications with backend services and third-party APIs, and implement secure authentication and authorization using standards such as JWT and OAuth. You will write clean, scalable, and testable code and contribute to the development of robust data processing pipelines and service integrations.

You will also work on containerized development and deployment using Docker and collaborate with DevOps teams to implement CI/CD pipelines, particularly using tools like ArgoCD. Source code will be managed through Git, and you will maintain unit testing practices using tools like Pytest for backend and Jest for frontend.

Required Skills and Qualifications

The ideal candidate must have hands-on experience with both Python and ReactJS, strong expertise in designing and integrating RESTful APIs, and experience working with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL. A strong understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies is important, and a relevant technical degree is expected to validate your experience. You should bring 8 to 12 years of overall IT experience, with deep technical expertise and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage collaboration effectively within a team are essential.

On the backend, solid experience with FastAPI, Flask, or Django is required, along with proficiency in working with JSON, exception handling, microservices, multithreading, and asynchronous I/O. On the frontend, experience with TypeScript and familiarity with UI libraries such as Shadcn UI and Tailwind CSS are highly desirable.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with AWS and exposure to Agile SAFe practices are considered advantageous.

Soft Skills

The role demands excellent problem-solving and analytical abilities, along with strong verbal and written communication skills. You should be self-motivated, capable of working both independently and as part of a team, and committed to delivering high-quality, production-ready code.
