📋 Description

• Design and build scalable backend services with Django / Django REST Framework • Lead architecture reviews in client projects and our own start-ups • Create rock-solid task queues with Celery + Redis / RabbitMQ / Kafka • Implement event-streaming integrations via Kafka or RabbitMQ (publishing, consuming, schema management) • Performance tuning, caching strategies and database optimisation (PostgreSQL, plus NoSQL where it makes sense) • Own the full lifecycle: Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability, incident response • Drive code reviews & mentoring for mid- and junior engineers • Use AI coding tools responsibly – knowing when they add value and when they don’t

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years production experience with Django (incl. DRF) • Proven open-source contributions (share your GitHub) • Deep knowledge of Celery, distributed messaging (Kafka/RabbitMQ) and async processing • Git power user, strong in shell & scripting (Bash/Python) • Hands-on with containers & cloud (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS/GCP/Azure) • Clean-code mindset

🏖️ Benefits

• Remote-first – work from anywhere • Output-oriented culture: we measure results, not time at the desk • Flat hierarchy, large say in tech & tooling decisions • Annual budget for conferences, certifications & hardware of your choice • Freedom to shape your contract: working hours, vacation, etc. are flexible – you come first • A team that truly lives Open Source & Clean Code
