We’re building the next‑gen operating system for universities—unifying data, workflows and analytics, fully powered by AI. You’ll own end‑to‑end backend architecture, implementation and operations using AWS CDK, Jira for backlog management and GitHub Actions for CI/CD.
Model & query graph data: Ingest RDF triples into AWS Neptune and write high‑performance SPARQL (RDF/SPARQL experience is a plus but not required—strong database fundamentals are enough; we’ll train you).
Ship serverless APIs: Design, build and deploy Python‑based Lambda + API Gateway services from local dev to production.
Infrastructure as Code: Define and manage all cloud resources with AWS CDK.
Automate delivery: Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions (and CodePipeline).
Run Agile: Track tasks, sprints and incidents in Jira; champion Agile best practices.
Observe & optimise: Instrument services with CloudWatch and X‑Ray to maximize performance, reliability and cost‑efficiency.
Lead by example: Mentor peers and enforce clean, readable, industry‑standard code across the team.
Proficiency with modern Python frameworks/libraries: FastAPI, Pydantic, rdflib, Pytest.
Proven AWS experience: Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, IAM.
Hands‑on CI/CD with GitHub Actions (plus CodePipeline).
AWS CDK expertise for Infrastructure as Code.
Commitment to clean, readable code and collaborative team spirit.
Comfortable running projects via Jira.
Self‑starter who thrives without micromanagement.
AWS Neptune and graph/semantic tech (RDF/OWL, SPARQL).
Containerisation: Docker / ECS / Fargate.
AWS certifications (Solutions Architect Pro, Developer Associate).
Familiarity with TypeScript / Node.js (nice to have; this is primarily a Python role).
Impact: Shape a platform that powers modern higher‑ed.
Autonomy: Full ownership of design, delivery and operations.
Growth: Partner with top‑tier architects in a fast‑paced, learning environment.
Perks: Competitive salary, flexible hours, remote‑first culture
Curriculum Vitae (CV): Detailed CV highlighting relevant experience and achievements.
Link to a public GitHub repository (or equivalent) that showcases relevant projects, code samples or contributions.
