Remote Python API Developer

Can You Build Systems That Power Global Scale? We Think You Can

Our platform isn’t just an interface; it’s the engine behind thousands of mission-critical connections. As our Remote Python API Developer, you’ll architect and evolve APIs that serve as the backbone for everything from real-time data sync to seamless third-party integrations. You won’t just write endpoints; you’ll build foundations that empower users, partners, and internal teams alike. If clean, the scalable architecture makes your heart beat faster; you're exactly who we want to build with.

What You'll Contribute

Architect Thoughtful, Scalable APIs

Your Python expertise will be central to designing robust RESTful APIs that can withstand high-volume, low-latency demands. We want every route you build to feel intuitive and every response payload to feel deliberate. You’ll define how services communicate, and your work will touch almost every product feature we release.

Own the Integration Layer

You'll serve as the connective tissue between our front-end, back-end, and third-party systems. Whether it's enabling OAuth workflows, shaping webhook behavior, or aligning with GraphQL expansions, you’ll define how data moves and why. Your APIs will shape the developer experience for teams both inside and outside our company.

Collaborate for Real-World Impact

Every endpoint you publish will power live dashboards, user actions, and automation flows across our remote-first user base. You’ll work hand-in-hand with front-end engineers to streamline feature rollout, with DevOps to fine-tune performance, and with product managers to deliver precisely what our users need, not just what we can technically build.

Champion API Documentation and Developer Experience

We believe that a well-documented API is as valuable as the code behind it. You’ll maintain crystal-clear Swagger or OpenAPI specifications and partner with technical writers to ensure every call is discoverable, testable, and understandable. Think of it as product design for engineers.

Tools & Technologies You'll Work With

• Python (FastAPI, Flask)
• REST and OpenAPI standards
• Docker & Kubernetes for container orchestration
• AWS Lambda & API Gateway for serverless deployments
• PostgreSQL and Redis for data and caching layers
• CI/CD workflows in GitHub Actions
• Monitoring with Datadog and Sentry
• Collaboration tools: Slack, Notion, Zoom, Figma

What Sets You Up for Success

• You've spent 4+ years designing and deploying APIs that are clean, secure, and performant.
• You're fluent in Python and have architected production-grade microservices with FastAPI or similar frameworks.
• You've maintained API documentation using OpenAPI or Swagger, and you're meticulous about clarity.
• You've worked in distributed teams and can navigate async communication with ease.
• You think beyond the endpoint—you consider caching strategies, rate limiting, pagination, and backward compatibility in every decision.
• You balance elegance with pragmatism: you know when to refactor and when to ship
• You simplify complex ideas—whether it's over Slack, Loom videos, or pair programming sessions.

The Remote Work Environment

We're a fully distributed team with colleagues across multiple time zones. Our collaboration model is built around deep work, async updates, and regular team alignment calls. You'll have uninterrupted blocks to code and think, and plenty of opportunities to sync when it matters. Our remote stack includes Zoom for calls, Notion for documentation, GitHub for reviews, and Figma for design collaboration.

We move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus intensely. Your work-life harmony matters to us—we’re building a culture of sustainable innovation, not burnout.

Compensation & Benefits

• Annual Salary: $121,932 (USD, remote)
• Generous PTO policy, including company-wide recharge days
• Learning stipend for conferences, courses, and books
• Top-tier hardware and software setup shipped to your door
• Annual company offsites (remote-friendly but meaningful!)
• Equity options available

Why This Role Matters

APIs are our product's DNA. When they’re designed thoughtfully, our systems scale effortlessly, and our users succeed faster. When they’re not, everything feels brittle. Your work ensures our architecture is future-ready, our developers stay unblocked, and our product remains flexible and resilient. From onboarding flows to enterprise-level automation, your code will make things work beautifully and reliably.
