• Maintain comprehensive technical documentation (e.g., Swagger/OpenAPI) for APIs and service flows.
• Implement robust security measures, including fine-grained Role-Based Access Control and data compliance standards.
• Collaborate closely with frontend developers, DevOps engineers, and product managers to deliver end-to-end features.

Required profile

• 3+ years of professional backend development experience using Python.
• Deep proficiency with modern Python frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, or Django.
