Design, build, and scale backend Python services and data pipelines for an AI-driven platform.
Strong Python backend development, system design for scalability, and experience with workflow orchestration and integrations.
We are looking for a Senior Backend Python Engineer with strong systems thinking and API integration experience to help design, build, and scale our AI-driven network operations platform. You will focus on backend services, data pipelines, and integrations with upstream tools, ensuring reliability, performance, and correctness in a production environment. • Write clean, well-structured, testable Python code. • Optimize for I/O, disk operations, and concurrency in a high-volume production environment. • Contribute to system design for redundancy, fault tolerance, and scalability. Data Pipelines & Workflow Orchestration • Develop and maintain workflows using Prefect (or similar orchestration tools) for: • Document ingestion and preprocessing (e.g., manuals, internal docs). • Vectorization pipelines and blob storage management for retrieval. • Scheduled and event-driven workflows for ticket summarization, alarm correlation, compliance workflows, etc. • Implement automatic retries, logging, and observability for all workflows. Integrations & Tooling • Integrate with a wide range of operational tools (e.g., device lookup, route lookup, trace route, change record lookup). • Help transition existing “agentic tools” and internal scripts into MCP-based tools and standardized interfaces over time. • Work with internal tool owners (e.g., networking automation platforms) using APIs, HTML scraping, or direct DB access where needed.
