This role requires expert-level proficiency in Python and deep expertise in AWS services and serverless architecture. The Senior-Level Developer will actively participate in system discovery, contribute to development of a structured systems inventory, and support creation and execution of phased migration plans from legacy on-premises platforms to cloud-native environments. This position is not limited to feature development; it requires ownership of complex refactoring efforts, architectural fidelity, and integration stability across interconnected modernization workstreams., Systems Inventory & Migration Planning * Participate in structured discovery sessions to assess legacy systems, data flows, and integration dependencies. * Contribute to development of a comprehensive systems inventory documenting: * Functional capabilities * Technical stack * Data dependencies * Upstream/downstream integration points * Support development of a phased migration plan, including: * Refactor vs lift-and-shift analysis * Risk identification * Sequencing of interdependent systems * Hybrid mitigation strategies * Collaborate with architects and Requirements Engineers to align modernization strategy with technical feasibility. Expert-Level Python Refactoring & Cloud-Native Redesign * Lead complex refactor efforts from legacy environments (e.g., SAS, file-based batch systems) to Python-based AWS Cloud Native architectures. * Redesign algorithms and workflows for scalability and performance. * Ensure computational and functional equivalence during migration. * Replace file-based ingestion models with API- and database-driven architectures. * Optimize high-volume, data-intensive applications for distributed execution. Expert-level Python proficiency is required, including: * Advanced data processing * Modular architecture design * Performance optimization * Test-driven development practices AWS Cloud & Serverless Architecture Implementation * Design and implement solutions using AWS services such as: * Lambda * ECS / EKS * Fargate * Aurora/Postgres * EventBridge * SNS/SQS * Glue * Batch * S3 * IAM / KMS * Architect event-driven and serverless patterns. * Implement scalable containerized workloads. * Ensure alignment with enterprise cloud guardrails and security requirements. * Optimize cost, performance, and resilience within AWS environments. Expert-level experience in AWS Cloud Native architectures and serverless technologies is required. System-of-Systems Integration Leadership * Identify cross-workstream integration risks. * Ensure upstream/downstream compatibility during phased modernization. * Support design of orchestration patterns to prevent sequencing errors and data thrashing. * Collaborate with other Senior Developers across workstreams to coordinate shared services and integration layers. * Participate in architecture review discussions and technical governance forums. DevSecOps & Automation Integration * Design CI/CD-aware applications compatible with GitLab or equivalent pipelines. * Integrate automated testing and security scanning into development lifecycle. * Troubleshoot pipeline failures and optimize build processes. * Ensure observability through structured logging, metrics, and monitoring. * Support infrastructure-as-code alignment (Terraform/CloudFormation collaboration). ## Related Videos - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - CSS is DOOMed](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1838-wearedevelopers-live-css-is-doomed) - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Modern DevOps for IoT Devices and More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1805-wearedevelopers-live-modern-devops-for-iot-devices-and-more) - [30 powerful AWS hacks in just 30 minutes: Boost your developer productivity](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1624-30-powerful-aws-hacks-in-just-30-minutes-boost-your-developer-productivity) - [Enabling automated 1-click customer deployments with built-in quality and security](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/83-enabling-automated-1-click-customer-deployments-with-built-in-quality-and-security) - [Hate organising your photos?
