Python Developers

Responsibilities:

• Develop and enhance backend services and APIs using technologies such as Python, REST APIs, FastAPI or comparable frameworks, and appropriate supporting libraries.
• Design and implement service-layer capabilities that support front-end applications, embedded analytics experiences, enterprise integrations, and other downstream consumers.
• Translate user stories, functional requirements, and solution designs into clear, reusable, and maintainable backend services, APIs, data models, and integration components.
• Develop and maintain RESTful API integrations with enterprise applications, approved internal and external services, and governed data platforms.
• Develop and support data integrations and persistence using PostgreSQL and other relational databases, including data models, SQL queries, transformations, validation, and application data flows.
• Develop and contribute to unit, integration, API, contract, and data-validation testing as part of the software development lifecycle.
• Create prototypes and proofs of concept to validate API, integration, data, and AI/agentic technical approaches and help translate approved concepts into production-ready services.
• Use source control, code reviews, CI/CD practices, and established development and deployment standards appropriate to backend services and data integrations.
• Write clean, reusable, well-documented, secure, and maintainable backend code, APIs, data-access components, and configuration.
• Monitor and troubleshoot backend services, APIs, database integrations, and data-pipeline issues; support defect resolution and participate in production support activities.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including API documentation, data models, integration specifications, configuration notes, and operational support procedures.
• Work closely with product owners, business stakeholders, front-end engineers, data engineers, QA engineers, and other technology teams.
• Follow Agile practices, participate in sprint planning and estimation, and provide timely status updates.
• Continuously build knowledge of modern backend development, APIs, data, cloud, AI, and agentic technologies as the Commercialization Technology landscape evolves.
• Maintain accurate documentation of services, configurations, data flows, integrations, and changes.
• Contribute reusable backend components, integration patterns, documentation, and continuous improvements that strengthen the broader Commercialization Technology ecosystem.
