• Support cloud deployment and integration with CI/CD and data pipelines

Quality & Reliability

• Establish standards for code quality, testing, observability, and documentation.

• Ensure internal tools are robust, monitored, and evolve with operational needs.

Candidate Requirements

• MSc or BSc in Computer Science, Software Engineering or equivalent professional experience

• Strong software engineering experience in Python

• Experience developing internal tools, workflow automations, or AI/LLM-based utilities

• Familiarity with cloud platforms (GCP or AWS)
