About the role
Code Metal is seeking a senior backend engineer to design and implement scalable Python services and APIs for its next-gen wargaming platform. You will build cloud-scale infrastructure, data pipelines, and interfaces to analysts and government stakeholders, with strong emphasis on reliability and reproducibility.
The role requires extensive Python experience, API design across REST/GraphQL/gRPC, and hands-on containerized development with Docker and Kubernetes.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
