  • Contribute to backend architecture, APIs, databases, and distributed application design.
  • Develop and support applications using cloud and containerized technologies.
  • Take ownership of technical solutions from requirements through implementation and delivery.
  • Partner with engineering and business teams to translate complex requirements into effective software solutions.
  • Identify performance challenges and implement strategies to improve system efficiency.
  • Influence technical direction while continuing to remain highly hands-on with development.
  • Collaborate with other engineers on broader modernization and application development initiatives.

Qualifications:

  • Software engineering experience with extensive hands-on Python development.
  • Experience building backend applications, services, or data-intensive solutions.
  • Strong background working with large datasets and complex data-processing workflows.
  • Solid understanding of backend architecture and database technologies.
  • Experience with REST APIs, microservices, SQL databases, or similar backend technologies.
  • Proven experience helping modernize legacy applications or transition older technology stacks.
  • Ability to independently manage technical initiatives and make sound engineering decisions.
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.

Additional Details:

  • Knowledge of multiprocessing, parallel computing, distributed processing, or other scalable computational approaches is a plus.
  • Financial services experience is beneficial, particularly exposure to financial data, securitized assets, or structured finance.
  • Potential for conversion to Full Time after approximately 12–24 months.
  • Background check and drug screening may be required.
