Job Summary:We are seeking a talented and experienced Python Developer to join our development team. The Python Developer will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality software applications and systems.

The ideal candidate will have strong proficiency in Python programming, a solid understanding of software development principles, and experience with web development, databases, and cloud platforms.

Key Responsibilities: Software Development & Design: Design, develop, and maintain efficient, reusable, and reliable Python code.

Write clean, well-documented code and follow software development best practices. Develop and implement application logic, algorithms, and data structures to solve complex business problems.

Web Development & APIs: Build and maintain web applications and RESTful APIs using Python-based frameworks (e.g., Django, Flask, FastAPI). Collaborate with front-end developers to integrate user-facing elements with server-side logic.

Design and implement API endpoints and ensure their security, performance, and scalability. Database Management & Integration: Work with relational and non-relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB) to design data models and write efficient database queries. Implement database migrations and handle data integrations between back-end systems and third-party services.

Testing & Debugging: Write unit tests and perform integration testing to ensure the robustness and quality of the codebase.

 Use debugging tools to identify and resolve software defects, performance issues, and other technical challenges.

Participate in code reviews to ensure coding standards, performance, and security are adhered to.

Performance Optimization & Scalability: Monitor and optimize the performance of applications, ensuring they scale to handle increasing loads and user traffic.

Refactor code for efficiency and performance improvements, applying best practices in caching, load balancing, and concurrency.

Collaboration & Agile Development: Collaborate with cross-functional teams (front-end developers, data engineers, product managers) to define project requirements and deliver solutions on time. Participate in daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives as part of Agile development processes.

Documentation & Support: Maintain technical documentation for application features, database schemas, and development processes. Provide technical support and troubleshoot issues in production environments, offering timely fixes and enhancements.

Key Qualifications: Education & Experience: Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. 2+ years of experience as a Python Developer or in a similar software development role. Strong experience with Python frameworks (e.g., Django, Flask, FastAPI) and libraries.

Technical Skills: Proficiency in Python programming, including advanced features such as decorators, context managers, and generators. Experience with web development frameworks like Django, Flask, or similar. Strong understanding of RESTful APIs, web services, and application integration.

Experience with databases (SQL and NoSQL), including designing schemas, writing queries, and optimizing performance. Familiarity with front-end technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and integrating Python applications with front-end frameworks is a plus. Additional Skills: Familiarity with version control systems, particularly Git.

Knowledge of cloud platforms and services (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) is an advantage.

Understanding of containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes is a plus.Certifications (Optional but Preferred): Python-related certifications (e.g., PCEP, PCAP) or certifications in cloud platforms (AWS, Google Cloud) would be beneficial.

Personal Attributes: Strong problem-solving skills and analytical thinking. Ability to write clean, maintainable, and efficient code.

Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment. Self-motivated and able to work independently to meet deadlines and deliver quality software. A passion for learning new technologies and keeping up with industry trends.
