Python Technical SME- W2 Candidates Only

Technical Subject Matter Expert (SME) – PythonThe Python Technical SME is the ultimate technical escalation point and hands-on "Strike Team" lead for the Python language pod. This is a heavy Backend Coding and Refactoring role focused on resolving complex dynamic language failures, strict version incompatibilities, and critical API breaking changes across large-scale Python codebases. The SME intervenes when automated migration scripts fail, ensuring application stability during major dependency and runtime upgrades.Detailed JD & ResponsibilitiesCore ResponsibilitiesHands-On Hardcore Refactoring: Resolve subtle runtime type errors, dynamic import issues, and breaking changes introduced by major library version bumps across large Python codebases.Resolving Dependency Conflicts: Deeply analyze hierarchical pyproject.toml, requirements.txt, and setup configurations to resolve transitive dependency deadlocks.Custom Patching Management: Debug and merge historical custom overrides and patches to align with clean upstream package releases.Architectural Conversions: Execute multi-version layout migrations and structure clean boundaries for shared internal Python libraries.C-Extension & FFI Auditing: Manage and refactor complex Python-to-C/C++ bindings, addressing memory management and interpreter overhead during upgrades.
