Senior Backend Engineer

Are you a Backend Engineer with strong Python and AWS experience who enjoys building systems that sit at the core of multiple products?

This role sits within a central application platform powering a suite of enterprise-grade applications. This platform underpins how teams deliver micro-frontend applications at scale, handling authentication, APIs, and shared infrastructure across the board.

You’ll have visibility across the system and the opportunity to influence how the platform evolves.

What You’ll Do:

• Design, build, and maintain scalable Python-based microservices
