We're partnering with a large enterprise organization building a high-volume enterprise search and intelligent-matching platform that processes millions of transactions daily. If you're a Python engineer who loves solving hard search-relevance and distributed-systems problems at scale, this one's worth a look.
What You'll Do

Own Elasticsearch index design, query performance, and relevance tuning for high-volume search workloads
Build event-driven data pipelines using Kafka for real-time, high-throughput processing
Develop and secure cloud-native services on Microsoft Azure
Integrate with Databricks and enterprise data platforms for large-scale data processing
Drive CI/CD, observability, and production performance across a modern distributed architecture
What You Bring
7+ years of hands-on Python backend development -- this is foundational, not optional
Strong production Elasticsearch experience (Query DSL, relevance tuning, mapping, index lifecycle management)
Experience with Kafka or a comparable enterprise event-streaming platform
Hands-on experience deploying and securing applications on Microsoft Azure
Solid grounding in distributed systems, microservices, and CI/CD (Git, Docker, Azure DevOps)
Nice to Have
Databricks, PySpark, and Delta Lake experience
Semantic/vector search, LLM integration, or Azure OpenAI experience
Kubernetes, Terraform/Pulumi, and observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry)
Healthcare or supply chain industry background
