This is not a Data Engineering, ETL, API, web development, or Java-focused position. The ideal candidate will have 6+ years of recent, hands-on Python development experience using pandas and be able to clearly explain the business logic they have developed in previous projects. The Hiring Manager is specifically looking for developers who have built complex Python solutions from the ground up-not candidates whose experience is primarily centered around ETL tools, APIs, interface development, or basic data cleanup. Candidates must be local to the Chicago area and able to work in a hybrid environment. Candidates willing to relocate may be considered as a last option. Top 5 Required Skills

• 6+ years of recent, hands-on Python development leveraging pandas (REQUIRED)
• AWS application development experience
• Docker
• Linux and Windows environments
• Git version control, * 6+ years of recent professional Python development experience using pandas (required and must be clearly demonstrated on the resume)
• Strong experience writing complex Python code involving business logic and large-scale data manipulation
• Experience developing applications within AWS

Nice-to-Have Skills

• MySQL

• Amazon RDS

• Amazon Redshift

• Apache Iceberg

• Automation and scripting experience, The Hiring Manager is specifically seeking candidates who can demonstrate real-world Python programming expertise rather than simply listing Python on their resume. Strong candidates will have:

• Extensive hands-on coding experience using Python and pandas

• Experience building complex business logic-not just data pipelines

• Experience manipulating and transforming large datasets

• The ability to clearly explain the Python solutions they personally designed and implemented

• Recent experience with AWS-based development

Candidates Who Are NOT a Fit The following backgrounds are generally not aligned with this opportunity:

• Data Engineers whose primary focus is ETL pipelines
• API or web/interface developers with limited Python coding depth
• Java developers with minimal Python experience
• Candidates whose Python experience is limited to scripting, automation, or data cleanup
• Resumes that list Python keywords but cannot demonstrate deep hands-on development experience during technical interviews
