This role is open to candidates based in Latin America.

Requirements What we’re looking for: 6+ years building production web applications 3+ years with Python and Django Celery, RabbitMQ, and Redis in production (day‑1 pipeline scope) Working knowledge of CS fundamentals: data structures, concurrency, SQL, system design Strong written communication; comfortable working async across time zones Self‑direction and follow‑through Fluency in English Strong plus DRF and/or django‑ninja Postgres tuning and query analysis Kubernetes and AWS Stripe, WorkOS SSO, or other third‑party API integrations HTMX, React, or both Background in consumer privacy or adjacent industries Experience with AI coding assistants (Claude Code, etc.) #J-18808-Ljbffr Commit
