We are hiring for one of our clients seeking experienced Python Software Engineers to support a model-training initiative with a leading AI research organization.

This role is designed for engineers who have built and maintained complex, production-grade Python systems — not just scripts or notebooks, but scalable services, tools, or frameworks deployed in real-world environments.

Role Overview

You will contribute to structured model-training workflows that require deep Python expertise, strong software architecture fundamentals, and the ability to reason clearly about code quality, performance, and maintainability.

This is a high-signal engagement intended for experienced engineers comfortable with technical interviews and rigorous evaluation.

Strong understanding of Python language internals and advanced features

Demonstrated ability to architect modular, testable, maintainable codebases

Experience with modern Python tooling and frameworks

Background contributing to large-scale or high-visibility software systems

Required Technical Skills

Advanced Python features (decorators, generators, async/await, context managers)

Performance tuning (profiling, memory optimization, runtime efficiency)

API development (e.g., FastAPI or similar frameworks)

Data validation frameworks (e.g., Pydantic or similar tools)

Type hints and static typing best practices

Dependency injection patterns

Unit and integration testing frameworks

Code organization and modular design principles

Interview Process

90-minute live technical interview conducted by an engineer

Focused entirely on Python fundamentals and applied engineering reasoning

You may use standard documentation or reference materials

Decisions are typically communicated within two weeks

Engagement Details

Approximately 20 hours per week commitment

Initial contract duration of at least one month

Strong contributors may receive opportunities for future projects

Fully remote with flexible scheduling

Compensation

$100 per hour, depending on experience and interview performance
