About the Position
Senior Python Engineer | Join Bluefield Technologies
Locations: Prague, Czechia | Krakow, Poland | Kosice, Slovakia
Type: Full-time
Work Location: Hybrid (2+ days in office, rest remote)
About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our team. You’ll be the bridge between the sleek, high-performance interface our users see and the robust, scalable Python services that power the logic.
Responsibilities
- Mobile-First Frontend: Architect and scale our React-based mobile web application, ensuring 60fps performance and offline-first capabilities.
- Operational Control Centers: Build dense, data-heavy Admin Panels that allow our operations team to monitor real-time logistics, manage users, and handle complex dispatching.
- Scalable Backend: Design and maintain performant APIs using Python (FastAPI/Django) to handle high-concurrency event streams.
- End-to-End Ownership: From database schema design to CSS transitions, you’ll own the entire feature lifecycle.

Core Skills:
- Proven experience in Python and backend development using FastAPI, Django, or Flask.
- Strong understanding of geospatial data structures (GeoJSON, latitude/longitude).
- Understand principles of cloud native development.
- Usage of docker for development environment.
- Familiar with Kubernetes (application lifecycle and environment).
- Familiar with Helm charts (their maintenance and usage).
- Familiar with ArgoCD, Grafana, Github.
- Nice to have - familiarity with helmfile.

Required Skills:
- 5+ years of experience with Python, primarily in backend development.
- Python: Advanced.
- FastAPI / Django / Flask.
Language Skills
- English: Upper intermediate (B2).
Who You Are
- The Architect: You don't just "write code"; you design systems. You understand how a change in a Python microservice ripples out to the React frontend.
- UX Enthusiast: You understand that an Admin Panel requires different UX "muscle" (efficiency and density) than a mobile app (simplicity and speed).
- Problem Solver: You’ve dealt with the "hard stuff"-real-time GPS tracking, race conditions in booking logic, or complex state management.
- Pragmatist: You balance the need for clean, tested code with the reality of shipping features in a fast-paced environment.
We Offer
- Challenging and rewarding tasks with autonomy in a distributed international team.
- Motivated colleagues who foster a collaborative environment.
- Competitive salary based on your experience and expertise.
- 20 vacation days + state holidays + your birthday off (for full-time employees).
- Sick leave coverage (5 days for full-time employees).
- Opportunities for regular business trips abroad.
- The longer you are with us, the more interesting benefits you will have! (additional holidays and after 5 years you will receive an extra one month paid holidays!)
