High-Impact Enterprise Engineering Scope: Direct the design and engineering of scalable microservices and data pipelines that power high-volume enterprise platforms.
Modern Cloud & Data Tech Stack: Work extensively with FastAPI, Kubernetes, Kafka, Azure Databricks, PySpark, and Delta Lake in a cloud-native ecosystem.
12-Month Engagement Stability: Secure a full 1-year consulting engagement within a well-funded, stable enterprise technology group.
Collaborative Environment: Partner closely with platform architects, security leads, and business stakeholders to establish reusable developer frameworks and automated delivery pipelines.
Responsibilities
Microservices & API Engineering
Scalable Service Development: Design, build, and maintain secure, high-concurrency Python microservices and APIs using FastAPI, REST/gRPC, Docker, Kubernetes, Redis, and Kafka.
Enterprise Integration: Deliver microservice APIs, internal platform APIs, data ingestion endpoints, event-driven streaming services, batch processing engines, and OAuth/security interfaces.
Data Platform Modernization & Quality
Data Pipeline Optimization: Build and optimize cloud data solutions using Python, PySpark, Azure Databricks, Delta Lake, ADLS, Azure Data Factory, Airflow, Azure SQL, and Unity Catalog.
Reusable Frameworks & Automation: Develop shared frameworks, orchestration patterns, automated testing suites, and documentation to raise delivery quality across engineering teams.
Operational Excellence: Perform root-cause troubleshooting, performance tuning, release support, and monitoring to maintain production platform resilience and compliance.
Qualifications
Professional Experience: 10+ years of software engineering experience, including strong, hands-on Python development within complex enterprise environments.
Microservices & API Depth: Proven experience designing and delivering Python-based microservices and platform capabilities using FastAPI, REST/gRPC, Docker, Kubernetes, Redis, and Kafka.
Data Engineering Expertise: Demonstrated experience building data solutions using Python, PySpark, Azure Databricks, Delta Lake, ADLS, Azure Data Factory, Airflow, Azure SQL, Unity Catalog, and SQL.
Production Governance: Proven track record delivering secure, production-ready applications that adhere to enterprise standards for authentication, authorization, CI/CD testing, monitoring, and compliance.
Education: University degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline.
Preferred Assets & Nice-to-Haves
Experience designing scalable services or data pipelines that process high-volume enterprise workloads.
Background building reusable internal developer platform capabilities or shared framework libraries.
Exposure to AI-assisted engineering practices (e.g., GitHub Copilot) to accelerate coding, testing, and documentation.
Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate technical design decisions to security, platform, and business partners.
Summary
If you are a tech-savvy Senior Python Engineer who pairs 10+ years of software development experience with expertise in FastAPI microservices, Kubernetes, Kafka, and Azure Databricks data engineering, this 12-month hybrid contract in Toronto is an outstanding opportunity.
