Job description
As a Python Developer, you’ll design, build, and maintain scalable scripts and microservices that power data pipelines, automation tools, and analytics across our brand network. You’ll integrate APIs, streamline workflows, and develop solutions that make our systems smarter and faster. Working closely with editorial, analytics, and design teams, you’ll turn repetitive tasks into efficient processes, build integrations between platforms, and experiment with predictive models for audience insights. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, writing clean and reliable code, and seeing their automations quietly run the world in the background.
