Python Developer

We are looking for a Python Engineer to join a world-famous product. The primary goal of the project is to migrate synchronous gRPC routes to asyncio. We are open to hiring specialists located in Poland. You will have the opportunity to work either remotely or in the office.

Project:

The product allows users to store everything in a single space, including regular files, data from the cloud, and web shortcuts. 

The engineer will be responsible for transitioning traffic to asyncio to achieve higher availability and lower latency for client`s services while reducing server costs. Given the complexity of client’s codebase, which includes a vast number of microservices, the technical level of developers must be high. The target routes can reside in any microservice and implement any functionality, making it crucial to understand the new code and its workings. The infrastructure is based on Kubernetes, AWS, and Envoy with a custom architecture.

Responsibilities:

• Migrate synchronous gRPC routes to asyncio.
• Ensure higher availability and lower latency for client`s services.
• Reduce server costs through optimized traffic management.
• Navigate and comprehend a complex codebase with numerous microservices.
• Work with Kubernetes, AWS, and Envoy in a custom architectural setup.

Interview Steps: Get ready for a marathon! 🏃‍♂️

The interview process will consist of technical interview, manager interview, and client interviews (2 steps). The client’s interviews: 1 coding/technical interview (60 min) + 1 interview with hiring manager (60 min)
