Senior / Lead Python API Engineer We are seeking a highly skilled and versatile Senior / Lead Python API Engineer to architect, develop, and deploy enterprise-grade, SSO-protected RESTful APIs built in Python, seamlessly integrated with modern frontend frameworks (Angular or React) or delivered as standalone, independently consumable microservices. The ideal candidate brings deep hands-on expertise in Python-based API engineering (FastAPI / Flask / Django REST Framework), secure identity management (OAuth 2.0 / OIDC / SAML / SSO), and enterprise-grade big data ecosystems using open-source Apache components. You will drive API deployments on Red Hat OpenShift and Amazon EKS, and operate confidently across cloud-agnostic data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks) and cloud service providers AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCS). You will champion best-in-class API security including Secured Cross-Cloud Data Sharing patterns, automated test data generation, and performance engineering at scale.
