Collaborate with backend engineers to enhance Python/Django APIs and deliver end-to-end features.

Collaborate effectively, take ownership, and work independently when needed. Key Skills and Competencies

8+ years of prior experience as a developer in the required technologies.

Strong professional experience building production UI applications with TypeScript and a modern JavaScript framework (React/Vue/Angular/etc.).

Hands-on experience with advanced data grids (AG Grid strongly preferred), including server-side data loading, filtering, and performance tuning.

Strong front-end fundamentals (HTML, CSS, browser APIs, accessibility, performance).

Comfort working across the stack: consuming and evolving APIs (Python/Django exposure is a plus; willingness to learn is required).

Experience with data modeling and SQL.

Experience building and maintaining shared UI component libraries and design systems (Storybook).

Experience implementing authentication/authorization patterns (SSO, OIDC/OAuth2, RBAC).

Experience with modern front-end build and tooling (Node.js, Vite, npm workspaces/monorepos).

Proven track record improving code quality: testing, review practices, refactoring, and setting team conventions.

Experience delivering software in a CI/CD environment (GitHub Actions or similar).

Cloud experience deploying and operating web applications (AWS/Google Cloud Platform/Azure acceptable; Azure preferred).

Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document decisions and align stakeholders. Nice to Have

Broader backend experience beyond Python/Django (e.g., Node.js, Java, .NET) and non-REST integration patterns (events/queues, gRPC).

Practical familiarity with Azure services and operational concerns (app hosting, identity, networking, observability).

Experience using LLM-assisted development tools effectively on large codebases (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot). #LI-EW1
