Senior Python Backend Developer IRC266241

Description

About the Project:

We are developing a modern Angular-based web application integrated with Unity for visualizing 3D medical models. The system enables clinicians to create and manage medical cases for patients, and leverages machine learning pipelines to analyze medical records. Our infrastructure is built on AWS with secure identity management via OKTA. Key AWS services include EKS, EFS, S3, and Lambda. We may incorporate Step Functions and Airflow for orchestration.

We are building a cutting-edge Angular-based web application integrated with Unity to visualize 3D medical models. The system allows clinicians to create and manage medical cases for patients. Medical records are processed and analyzed through machine learning (ML) pipelines. The platform is hosted on AWS and uses services such as EKS, EFS, S3, Lambda, and integrates with OKTA for identity and access management. Step Functions and Airflow may be incorporated for orchestration.

Requirements

API Development: Design and implement robust, scalable RESTful or 4+ years of professional experience in backend development with Python (FastAPI, Flask, Django, or similar frameworks).

Strong understanding of RESTful API design and best practices.

Hands-on experience with AWS services, especially Lambda, S3, EKS, EFS, IAM.

Experience working with Docker and containerized application development.

Familiarity with OKTA, Keycloak or other SSO/IDaaS solutions for securing APIs.

Experience integrating with machine learning pipelines or data processing workflows.

Solid understanding of database technologies, both SQL (e.g., PostgreSQL) and NoSQL.

Familiarity with healthcare environments or regulated industries is a plus.

Experience with orchestration tools such as AWS Step Functions or Apache Airflow is a plus.

Strong communication skills and ability to lead or mentor junior engineers.

Job responsibilities

API Development: Design and implement robust, scalable RESTful or GraphQL APIs to support frontend and ML pipelines.

Data Handling: Develop backend components to ingest, store, and process structured/unstructured medical data securely and efficiently.

ML Pipeline Integration: Collaborate with data scientists to build and maintain backend services that trigger, manage, and monitor ML pipelines.

Cloud-Native Services: Build and deploy Python-based microservices using AWS services such as Lambda, EKS, and S3.

Security & Compliance: Ensure backend systems are secure and aligned with healthcare compliance standards (e.g., HIPAA), including OKTA-based authentication and authorization.

Storage & File Handling: Manage interaction with S3 for object storage and EFS for shared file systems, especially for large medical records and model data.

Performance Optimization: Profile, monitor, and optimize backend systems for speed, scalability, and reliability.

Collaboration: Work closely with frontend developers, Unity engineers, DevOps, and ML teams to ensure a cohesive and well-integrated system.
