An innovative, mission-driven LegalTech SaaS start-up is looking for a Senior Product Engineer (Backend & Data) with deep experience in Python, Product development, and Data engineering.

You’ll join a remote first, high-trust engineering team working with a modern, cloud-native stack - with real influence over technical decisions from day one. You’ll take technical ownership of the backend to ensure it’s robust, scalable, and ready for real customers, while adding new Data-driven features, optimising performance, and shaping the long-term Product roadmap.

Enhance and scale backend services in Python
Architect event-driven solutions in GCP with Pub/Sub & Cloud Run

Integrate APIs, enrich Data, and deliver robust, scalable Data pipelines
Implement modern IaC practices for deployment and automation
Leverage AI and tooling of your choice to boost workflow efficiency and deliver innovative Product features
Autonomy & Ambiguity - discover, design, and build without micromanagement.
Professional Development - dedicated time to explore new AI tools, Data engineering practices, and emerging tech to keep the Product ahead of the curve. They want engineers to be setup to stay on top in the new AI world.
