About the role

  • ShiftKey's scheduling platform is the backbone of what we do - and we're in the middle of making it dramatically better.
  • You'd be joining a tight, experienced engineering squad - 6 to 7 senior engineers spanning multiple products and stacks - at a genuinely defining moment for the platform.
  • This isn't maintenance mode: you're shaping architecture, setting standards, and leaving real fingertips on a product customers depend on daily.

Responsibilities

  • Lead backend development on our core scheduling platform modernization - setting Python best practices, guiding architecture decisions, and owning the quality of Python-driven services as the system evolves.
  • Write APIs, own services review code, and ship - the full range of what senior engineering looks like in practice.
  • Help drive the team's evolution toward an AI-accelerate SDLC, using tools like Claude Code to orchestrate agents that write, debug, and test software - this is an active part of how we work, not a future ambition.

Requirements

  • Deep, production-grade Python experience (Python 3.10+) - you write clean, idiomatic code and you've set the standard for it on a team before.
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted or agentic development workflows - LLM tooling, multi-agent systems, or similar

Company info

  • We've made a deliberate, focused decision to double down on the platform at the heart of our product: modernizing the codebase, improving supportability, and building a foundation we can confidently evolve and ship features from for years to come.
  • This isn't a greenfield rewrite for its own sake - it's a pragmatic, high-impact investment in software that real customers depend on every day.
