Job description

Python Developer (Product & API)

Location: Remote (UK or EU-based; UK preferred)

Type: Full-Time

We are looking for a motivated Python Developer to join our engineering team. This is a product-focused role where you will play a key part in building and maintaining the backend services that power our core platform. You will be responsible for designing and developing robust APIs and ensuring our backend systems are scalable and efficient. While this is primarily a backend engineering role, you will have the opportunity to work alongside our ML initiatives, helping to integrate light machine learning models into a production environment. We are a lean, agile team that values clean code, thoughtful architecture, and a "product-first" mindset. If you enjoy solving practical problems and seeing your code directly impact users, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

API & Backend Development: Design, build, and maintain high-performance backend services and RESTful APIs using Python

Product Engineering: Work closely with the product team to translate requirements into technical solutions that drive user value

ML Integration: Support the integration of machine learning components into our production stack (no deep research required, but a focus on implementation and deployment)

System Reliability: Debug, troubleshoot, and optimize existing services to ensure maximum uptime and performance

Collaborative Coding: Participate in code reviews and contribute to technical documentation to maintain high standards of code quality

Requirements

Experience: 2+ years of professional experience in Python development (we are open to Mid‑Junior level candidates with strong technical foundations)

Technical Stack: Deep proficiency in Python and experience with modern backend frameworks (e.g., FastAPI, Flask, or Django)

API Design: Proven ability to build and scale secure, efficient APIs

Engineering Mindset: A focus on "Product Engineering"—you care about why we are building a feature, not just how

Machine Learning: Familiarity with ML libraries or a basic understanding of how to serve ML models in production is a strong bonus

Bonus Points: Experience with Haskell is a significant plus but is not mandatory

Eligibility: Must be based in the UK or EU (UK-based is preferred)

Benefits

Competitive Salary

Remote Work: Fully remote position within the UK/EU

Modern Stack: Opportunity to work with high-level Python services and functional programming concepts

Growth: Exposure to ML-driven product development in a fast‑moving environment

Immediate Start: We are looking for someone to join us ASAP

If you do not hear back from us within 4 weeks of your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion.
