Intro

  • We're taking autonomous search mainstream, making product discovery more intuitive and conversational for customers, and more profitable for businesses.
  • We’re making conversational shopping a reality, connecting every shopper with tailored guidance and product expertise — available on demand, at every touchpoint in their journey.
  • We're designing the future of autonomous marketing, taking the work out of workflows, and reclaiming the creative, strategic, and customer-first work marketers were always meant to do.

Must‑have

  • Advanced OOP (mixins, abstract base classes, inheritance)
  • Decorators and context managers
  • Solid grasp of iterators/generators for streaming large datasets
  • Confident use of type hints
  • Complex aggregation pipelines and projections
  • Indexing and performance tuning for large collections
  • Experience with BSON/ObjectId handling
  • TTL and expiration strategies
  • Pipelines and atomic operations
  • Using Redis to support complex expiration and configuration patterns
  • Task queues and asynchronous job processing (e.g., Celery)
  • State machines and job lifecycle management
  • Error recovery, retries, and graceful degradation in the face of transient failures
  • Flask or a similar Python web framework
  • Pagination, filtering, JSON request/response handling
  • Building APIs for analytical/CRUD‑style operations
  • Reading logs and metrics to trace failing workflows
  • Quickly identifying root causes in multi‑component systems (Python services, cloud storage, Kafka, task queues)

Nice‑to‑have

  • Schema‑driven PII detection and masking
  • Permission‑aware data access
  • Streaming and transforming very large datasets (hundreds of GB or more)
  • Memory usage optimization and throughput improvements in Python services

Our Stack

  • You don’t need to know everything on day one, but you should be comfortable ramping up on this stack:
  • Language & Frameworks: Python 3.11+, Flask, Celery
  • Data Stores: MongoDB, Redis, Kafka
  • Cloud Storage Integrations: AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, SFTP
  • APIs: REST (Flask), gRPC (Protocol Buffers)
  • Validation & Models: Schematics / Pydantic or similar
  • Testing: pytest and related tooling

First 30 days

  • Get to know the team, our product, and how analytics features fit into the bigger picture.
  • Set up your local environment and run key services and test suites.
  • Familiarize yourself with core modules such as exports, data expiration, and analytics CRUD.
  • Deliver your first small changes (bugfixes or low‑risk improvements) and get them to production with support from the team.

First 90 days

  • Take ownership of medium‑sized features or improvements.
  • Design and implement changes that touch multiple components (Python services, cloud storage, task queues), with guidance from senior teammates.
  • Participate in incident investigations, learning how we debug cloud storage issues, stuck workflows, and performance regressions.
  • Contribute to improving test coverage and reliability for the modules you own.

First 180 days

  • Become a go‑to person for at least one major area (e.g., multi‑cloud exports or data expiration pipeline).
  • Lead the design and delivery of larger, multi‑milestone projects that significantly improve stability, performance, or developer experience.
  • Optionally participate in L3 rotations for the areas you own, including production incident mitigation and follow‑up improvements.
  • Help shape our technical roadmap for Python services: propose refactors, performance improvements, and new capabilities based on your experience.

If you are excited by complex Python systems, multi‑cloud integrations, and distributed systems at scale, and you want to work on critical analytics features that power real customer value, we’d love to hear from you.
