Python Developer

Position Overview

We are looking for a hands-on Backend Engineer to join the AI Center of Excellence at Wissen Infotech. You will own the design, development, and performance of the core Python services that power our AI Workbench—an internal platform that lets data scientists, prompt-engineers, and domain-experts rapidly experiment, train, evaluate, and deploy large-language-model (LLM) solutions at enterprise scale. Experience building AI / ML tooling is useful but not mandatory—we value rock-solid Python fundamentals, API-first thinking, and a passion for building developer-friendly products.

What You’ll Do

• Design and implement high-performance, async REST & WebSocket APIs in FastAPI that expose agentic, RAG, evaluation, and data-curation pipelines
• Build reusable service layers (authentication, authorization, rate-limiting, multi tenancy, audit) that accelerate new AI experiments while meeting enterprise-security mandates
• Integrate with vector DBs and LLM gateways
• Develop workflow orchestration jobs (Celery, Temporal, or Prefect) for long-running training, batch-evaluation, and data-labelling tasks
• Optimise throughput & latency (asyncio, connection-pooling, caching, gRPC) and protect downstream services with circuit-breakers & back-pressure
• Instrument code with Open-Telemetry, Prometheus metrics, and structured logs; create Grafana dashboards that help AI engineers spot regressions fast
• Partner with MLOps & DevOps teams to containerise services (Docker), define Helm charts, and drive CI / CD best-practices (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD)
• Write unit, integration, and property-based tests (pytest, hypothesis, locust) and maintain ≥80 % coverage in critical paths
• Publish clear API contracts (OpenAPI 3.x), SDK stubs, and “how-to” recipes in Confluence; mentor junior engineers via design reviews & pair-programming
