Job Description
Senior Python/Django Developer (Bangalore)
Backend Architecture & System Design
Design modular, object-oriented backends using Django's class-based views, models, and services.
Define reusable app structures (Django apps), domain models, and database schemas.
Apply SOLID principles, composition, and design patterns for clean code.
API Development (REST / GraphQL)
Build and maintain RESTful APIs using Django REST Framework (DRF).
Optionally integrate GraphQL using libraries like Graphene-Django.
Handle serialization, versioning, authentication, and throttling of APIs.
Authentication, Authorization & Security
Implement secure authentication (JWT, OAuth2, session-based) and fine-grained access control.
Apply best practices to avoid vulnerabilities (e.g., XSS, CSRF, SQL injection).
Integrate 3rd-party auth providers (Google, SSO, etc.).
Database Modeling & Optimization
Design relational models using Django ORM and object-oriented principles.
Optimize queries with select_related, prefetch_related, and indexing.
Handle schema migrations, denormalization, and data integrity checks.
Business Logic & Services Layer
Encapsulate business logic in service classes or utility modules.
Write reusable components like invoice generators, pricing engines, etc.
Testing & Quality Assurance
Develop unit, integration, and API tests using Django's test framework, Pytest.
Implement mocking, data factories, and coverage tracking.
Review and maintain high test coverage and reliable CI pipelines.
Deployment & DevOps Integration
Work with containerization tools (Docker), CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins), and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP).
Automate migrations, static file management, and environment-specific settings.
Use Gunicorn + Nginx or similar for production deployment.
Performance Tuning & Scalability
Identify and optimize performance bottlenecks (slow queries, N+1 problems).
Use caching strategies (Redis, Memcached), and Django's built-in cache framework.
Profile application behavior and plan for horizontal/vertical scaling.
Frontend Integration (Full Stack, if needed)
Collaborate with frontend developers (React, Vue, etc.) or write server-rendered templates (Django Templates, Jinja2).
Handle API integration, template rendering, and form submissions.
Mentorship & Technical Leadership
