We are searching for a committed Lead Python Engineer to join our team.

This position centers on enhancing cloud infrastructure, automation pipelines, and security practices within an AWS-focused environment. The role offers the chance to lead impactful migrations and contribute to scalable, secure platform foundations.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain AWS Lambda services and API Gateway endpoints using Python and boto3
• Lead the CI/CD transition away from legacy cicd-functions pipelines toward GitHub Actions workflows
• Manage infrastructure as code primarily through Terraform, supplemented by Serverless frameworks
• Carry out brownfield refactors, service decommissions, and migrations, including OAuth migrations, WAF block-mode enablement, and Mythos SAST/SCA remediations
• Configure and tune AWS WAF rules while resolving security issues uncovered by SAST and SCA tooling
• Integrate internal and third-party systems via REST APIs, including patterns such as ServiceNow OAuth client credentials flows
• Automate operational workflows and back agentic platform initiatives, with familiarity with n8n, LangChain, or similar orchestration tools considered a plus
• Partner with the SRE Consultant on telemetry gaps and Lambda-based data collection automation

Requirements

• A minimum of 5 years of relevant professional background
• A minimum of one year guiding and overseeing development teams
• Python development expertise focused on AWS Lambda and API Gateway in production settings
• Strong working knowledge of boto3 across services such as IAM, Secrets Manager, SSM, Lambda, API Gateway, CloudWatch, and WAF
• Hands-on Terraform expertise for production-level infrastructure as code, covering writing, refactoring, and reviewing modules
• Practical familiarity with the Serverless Framework, including supporting and migrating legacy stacks
• Hands-on construction of CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, with willingness to drive a cicd-functions to GHA transition
• Experience defining AWS WAF rules, activating block mode, and contributing to incident response efforts
• Knowledge of security tooling such as SAST and SCA, plus exposure to a structured compliance program
• Brownfield approach with a proven history of migrations, decommissions, and refactors rather than greenfield work
• Excellent oral and written English communication skills (B2+ level or higher)

Nice to have
