Become a true Google Cloud specialist. This role treats the cloud as a toolkit, not just hosting. We are looking for a Senior Python Engineer to build high-speed APIs that power global advertising campaigns. You will master the Google Cloud Platform and work on a modern, data-intensive stack using FastAPI and serverless architecture to handle traffic on a global scale.

The Career Upgrade

Master the GCP Stack:
You will gain deep production experience with Cloud Run, Big Query, and Cloud Functions. Move past basic EC2/VM management and become an expert in advanced serverless patterns and data pipelines.

Get Paid to Certify
:
We support your growth by paying for Google Cloud certifications and providing a structured path to achieve them. Hitting milestones can unlock financial bonuses.

Work with Modern Tools

Leave legacy monoliths behind. Build asynchronous microservices using FastAPI and Python 3+. Focus on speed, concurrency, and clean architecture.

Build for Scale

See how data moves in the high-stakes world of international media and solve performance challenges that arise at high volume.

What You Will Build
  • High-Speed APIs:
    Architect and build asynchronous microservices using FastAPI to process real-time data.

  • Automated Environments:
    Use Terraform to manage your infrastructure as code.
  • Resilient Systems:
    Write comprehensive tests and maintain CI/CD pipelines to ensure every deployment is safe.
What You Need To Bring
  • The Python

    Skills:

    Strong proficiency in Python 3+. Comfortable with modern web frameworks. FastAPI is preferred, but deep experience with Flask or Django is accepted if you are ready to upskill.
