Senior Python Backend Developer

Salary Competitive

We’re a startup working hard to democratize AI. We’ve seen exciting growth over the last 2 years and, as we’re scaling up, so is our need for experienced developers. We’re a dedicated, close-knit team, and we’re looking for people who are willing to learn, help others and still like to have fun.


We are firm believers that good developers are not necessarily tied to 1 programming language, so if you're good in Perl, Ruby or Haskell, don't be shy to apply just because we’re using Python.

The person we're looking for will be working with the rest of the Backend team on our API together with our Frontend team to deliver new features. You should have previous experience working with APIs, RESTful practices, testing and CI/CD. 

Basic Requirements

  • Professional experience of at least one year, preferably with multiple tech projects
  • You love to think about systems and services and write high-quality code
  • Great understanding of APIs and their ecosystem
  • Solid English competence, written and verbal
  • Good understanding of development workflows, version control and continuous integration


Great to Have

  • Good Python skills
  • MongoDB knowledge
  • Docker / Kubernetes knowledge
  • Graduate level education


Responsibilities

  • Implementation of new features in our API
  • Improve engineering standards, tooling and processes
  • Help shape the future architecture of the backend
  • Be part of dev decision making, together with internal or external teams
  • Provide support for current and new Customers 


Our backend stack today includes Python, Bottle, MongoDB, Celery, RabbitMQ and hosting on Heruku and Google Cloud.


About Us:

We offer pre-built digital business modules with AI & Machine Learning capabilities that help our clients develop smart products faster. Backed by investors, our product is in the market, serving clients in Norway and the UK. Right now, our clients are only experiencing 50% growth. We want to improve that.


Our Team:

Our main office, where most of the team works, is at MESH in Oslo, Norway, with members working remotely from Switzerland, The Netherlands and Bulgaria.  


We’ll give you the opportunity to

  • Be part of an exciting, fast-paced tech startup Have work flexibility and autonomy Help make AI something everyone can take advantage of
