About the role
Job Description:
Design, implement, and manage high-performance backend systems using Python (FastAPI/Django).
Architect scalable RESTful and FAST APIs and microservices connecting enterprise data and analytics platforms.
Build, containerize, and deploy backend applications on AWS using Docker and container orchestration platforms (ECS/EKS).
Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate build, test, container image creation, and deployment to AWS (ECS/EKS).
Ensure APIs are secure, resilient, and optimized for performance and scalability.
Implement multi-threading and multiprocessing where appropriate for performance optimization.
Integrate and orchestrate LLM-driven workflows using modern agentic frameworks.
Utilize AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Cursor) to enhance development velocity and automation.
Build scalable AI-driven enterprise intelligence layers including vector-based APIs and retrieval workflows.
Debug, optimize, and enhance existing services for reliability and performance.
Implement observability and monitoring for containerized services (logs, metrics, traces) using CloudWatch and/or APM tooling.
Maintain comprehensive documentation for APIs, infrastructure, and AI-driven workflows.
Follow best practices for clean code, security, observability, and performance optimization.
