  • Experience with Python web frameworks (FastAPI preferred)
  • Deep understanding of Docker and containerization
  • Linux: systemd, journald, containers, confident CLI usage
  • Networking: HTTP(S), SSH, WebSocket
  • Strong understanding of client-server architecture and API design
  • Databases and ACID fundamentals
  • Cloud or on-premise infrastructure experience
  • English for technical communication

Nice to Have

  • Bare-metal / Raspberry Pi / embedded Linux (firmware flashing, secure boot)

  • Python deployment optimization
  • Experience with ArduPilot or other autopilot stacks
  • Prior tech lead or mentoring experience

What we offer:
