The Role:
We are looking for a Senior Python Developer (Fullstack, Backend-Heavy) to join one of our high-growth client teams as a core software architect. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, scaling, and maintaining high-throughput backend systems while having the fullstack dexterity to build out the corresponding frontends.
You will handle everything from high-performance asynchronous API design and background task orchestration to state management on the client side. This is an ideal role for an engineer who loves the clean syntax and processing capabilities of Python but values the completeness of delivering a seamless end-to-end user experience.
What we are looking for:
- 5+ years of production experience with modern Python, with a deep understanding of advanced concepts (metaclasses, generators, decorators) and asynchronous programming (asyncio).
- Mastery of FastAPI for high-performance microservices or Django (including Django REST Framework) for robust, feature-rich monolithic web applications.
- Solid, hands-on experience with modern frontend development using TypeScript and React.js (or Vue.js) to connect backends to reactive interfaces.
- Strong background in handling long-running background tasks and event-driven processing using Celery, Redis, or RabbitMQ.
- Deep knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred) including query profiling, optimization, indexing, and object-relational mapping (SQLAlchemy or Django ORM).
- Experience containerizing applications with Docker and deploying services into cloud infrastructure (AWS or Azure) via automated CI/CD pipelines.
- Dedication to writing highly testable code, utilizing pytest for comprehensive unit and integration test coverage.
Nice-to-have:
- Familiarity with vector databases (Pinecone, ChromaDB) or integrating LLM workflows.
- Experience with frontend state management libraries (Redux Toolkit, Zustand).
- Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform.
- Understanding of clean architecture and domain-driven design (DDD).
Responsibilities:
- Design, implement, and deploy robust Python backends alongside clean, responsive frontend applications.
- Design self-documenting, clean, and secure RESTful or GraphQL APIs that serve as predictable contracts for the frontend.
- Profile, benchmark, and optimize Python applications to eliminate performance bottlenecks and improve memory management.
- Conduct detailed, constructive peer code reviews, championing type-hinting, PEP 8 standards, and structural best practices.
- Collaborate closely with Product Managers, UI/UX designers, and cross-functional engineers to break down complex requirements into technical milestones.

No more unreliable clients. Enjoy on-time monthly payments with flexible withdrawal options.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Proxify. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
