Python Developer

What if your next role let you work at the intersection of Python, simulation, AI and defence — building software that takes complex models from high-level code through to deployment on CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs?

Our client — a heavily funded defence-tech company — is hiring a Principal Python Engineer (Modeling & Simulation) in the US.

They’re building AI-assisted development infrastructure for mission-critical and edge environments, tackling complex problems across simulation, distributed systems, compilers and heterogeneous compute.

The role:

Build and own complex production Python systems end-to-end

Design scalable backend architectures across APIs, data models, queues and distributed workflows

Work on modelling & simulation systems, ideally involving C++ and AFSIM or similar frameworks

Solve performance, reliability and deployment challenges in real-world defence environments

Work across AI-assisted development, simulation and complex software infrastructure

At senior levels, lead major technical initiatives and mentor engineers while remaining hands-on
