Do you have at least 5 years of programming experience – at least a year with Python - including open source and significant personal projects, not just jobs? If so, you have probably written so much Python code in your life that at times you want to express your thoughts through list comprehensions.



While programming skills are crucial, we're sure you realize just like we do that they're not enough to keep delivering quality software to clients. As a dynamic company focused on high-value and high-difficulty projects, we're looking for more than an experienced Pythonista – we need somebody with:



Project management skills : Experience in planning, estimating, and overseeing the execution of complex backend projects from start to finish.

Confidence in discussing technical matters with clients, managing expectations, and translating business requirements into technical solutions.

Capacity to anticipate technical challenges, identify opportunities for innovation, and contribute to the company's long-term technical vision.

Strong technical leadership : Ability to guide and mentor other developers, help make key architectural decisions, and ensure code quality across projects.

Ownership Mentality : You take full responsibility for your code from the first line to deployment, ensuring it is rock-solid, efficient, and reliable.

Proactiveness: You see projects through from start to finish and always think ahead to anticipate potential issues.



As a Lead Python Engineer, you'll be expected to drive and motivate others, organize priorities, and ensure we consistently deliver value for our clients. You'll play a key role in shaping our technical direction and maintaining our reputation for excellence.

If you’d like to see what it’s like to work with Python natives who all bring their long-standing expertise to the table, please get in touch. Spoiler alert: it’s great. And if you do have a great deal of confidence in your programming skills, but you’d rather not primarily organize things, check out our Senior Python Backend Engineer opening .



Reef Technologies is a fully remote Python backend software house . We’re a small, agile, senior-only team. The demand for our work is extremely high, so we get to pick and choose the projects that we want to take on – and the same goes for you. Before you’re assigned to a project, you’ll be personally asked if you’re interested in that particular task and if you don’t like it, you’ll just get something else. Check it out here , you’ll wonder how you’d survive in traditional organizations until now!) 



What type of projects would you work on? We mainly accept offers from startups and small-to-medium businesses from the US, the UK, and Canada. Some projects may only last a couple of hours, while others take even a few years for us to complete. There is one thing that you can be sure of, though - that it will always be your personal choice whether to work on a particular project or reject it .



Our main project right now is a trustless supercluster of performance-proofed GPU-enabled sandboxed docker container runners controlled by truly decentralized algorithms (not just PAXOS or RAFT).



Other projects included:



report generator/inventory tracker for an e-commerce/healthcare company from Canada

k8s-based revenue optimizer for large private GPU compute clusters in North America

hydrant certification report generator for Australian plumbers

large scale information display system for retailers (international)



We have already delivered those, but you can be sure we’ve got even more exciting projects coming up in the future. 

We have completed those projects – and many more – from the comfort of our own homes, from tropical beaches and from our favorite coffee shops. Some of us work early in the morning, others start off late in the night. We know our engineers are competent enough to organize their work and achieve top productivity in their own way.
