We’re building financial data systems that power real business decisions — and we need someone who knows how to make Django, PostgreSQL, Celery, and APIs play nicely at scale.
You know what clean, reliable backend systems look like — because you’ve built them. You’ve handled authentication quirks, rate limits, and webhooks; you build code that’s maintainable, performant, and correct.
If you’re curious about financial data, transactions, and KPIs, and enjoy turning numbers into insight, this role is for you. (Experience with banking or accounting APIs is a big plus.)
What You’ll Do
- Build and maintain Django-based systems using Celery for async and scheduled tasks
- Integrate and manage data from multiple APIs (banking, accounting, analytics, etc.)
- Design and optimize internal APIs
- Improve reliability, scalability, and performance
- Collaborate closely with product and frontend engineers
Your Profile
You’re an experienced backend engineer who is strong in all core areas of modern Python development:
- Python, Django, Django REST Framework
- Celery and asynchronous / distributed task handling
- PostgreSQL and robust data modeling
- Docker and containerized deployment workflows
- Unit testing (pytest or equivalent) and maintainable test structures
- Git, CI/CD, and reliable deployment automation
- API integrations (REST, OAuth, webhooks)
- Caching strategies & background job handling (preferred Redis experience)
- Solid understanding of security, permissions, and performance optimization
You’ve already built or scaled production-grade systems and can take ownership from architecture to deployment.
Experience with fintech or data integration systems is an advantage.
How We Work
We’re a small, remote-first team that values ownership over micromanagement.
You’ll have freedom in how you work — what matters is your impact.
Our daily language is English.
