This role is ideal for an experienced contractor with expert Python knowledge who enjoys working across backend and frontend, collaborating closely with data scientists, and delivering secure, scalable MVPs in an agile environment.

The Role:

You will be responsible for designing and building both the frontend and backend of an AI-powered Personally Identifiable Information (PII) redaction MVP.

The team’s internal Data Scientists have already built an early prototype, and your role will be to help transform this into a robust, secure, and scalable service ready for operational use.

The solution supports a critical public-sector need: managing the growing volume of Subject Access Requests (SARs) and Freedom of Information (FOI) requests, where current manual processes are costly, fragmented, and high-risk.

Key Responsibilities:

Design, develop, and maintain full-stack software using Python
Build and integrate frontend components using HTML, CSS, and frameworks such as React or Angular
Work with relational databases and data-driven applications
Collaborate closely with data science and DevOps colleagues
Deliver core MVP functionality in fortnightly Agile sprints
Improve the resilience, stability, and scalability of existing systems
Work effectively with pre-existing codebases
Apply containerisation and continuous delivery practices
Produce clear documentation throughout the SDLC

Essential Skills & Experience:

Expert-level Python development experience
Strong full-stack capability, including HTML/CSS and React or Angular
Expert understanding of the relational data model and databases
Proven experience delivering software using Agile methodologies
Experience with containerisation (e.g. Docker)
Ability to improve software reliability and operational resilience
Experience contributing to CI/CD pipelines
Strong documentation practices

Desirable Experience:

Designing software that allows users to view and interact with documents (PDF, Word) or images
Experience working with cloud platforms, particularly AWS
