Senior Python Engineer

What you will own:

• Write great code: We understand code is read more than it’s written, better off tested and maintainability is a must. 

• Help shape what we build: You’ll be working closely with product owners, designers and other engineers to design and refine our work. We work as a team and your input is key. 

• Influence technology evolution: We are designing new platforms with long-term goals in mind and are also happy to improve with new technology capabilities 

• Own delivery: We’re obsessed with shipping value; you’ll own work beyond a pull request. You’ll care about bugs, scalability, uptime and other non-functional requirements. 

• Grow together: You’ll review others' work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other's skills.

• Share your knowledge and points of view: We promote knowledge sharing across our teams and count on you to become an active member of one. Experiment with new tools, present your findings, shape our future standards.
