Python Developer

Overview

Our client, a rapidly growing internet service provider, is seeking a Python Developer to join their development team. This is a long term 1099 contract position.

What You'll Do

You'll work from Jira tickets with clear acceptance criteria, building and maintaining network-focused applications, so telecom/networking context is helpful but not mandatory. This role emphasizes independence - you'll own your stories from pickup to completion, with senior developer support available when needed. Code quality matters more than raw velocity.

The Tech Stack

• Python (Django, FastAPI)
• SQLAlchemy
• REST/SOAP API clients
• Kafka
• PostgreSQL and other standard infrastructure

The Environment

The team is collaborative but self-directed. Management is hands-off, trusting developers to manage their work. You'll be joining a team that's building out formal QA processes, so attention to detail and clean code practices are valued.

What We're Looking For

• Professional Python development experience
• Ability to work independently and own stories end-to-end
• Django or FastAPI experience
• Comfort working with APIs and data systems
• Networking or telecom background is a plus
• Strong communication skills for a collaborative remote environment

Compensation

Rate is negotiable based on experience. Submit your proposed hourly rate with your application.
