Embedded Python Data & Automation Engineer – Data Pipelines, APIs & Automation | Remote
Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: Meaningful Overlap with U.S. Business Hours
About the Role
At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring an experienced Embedded Python Data & Automation Engineer to take ownership of an existing Python environment, maintain production systems, improve data pipelines and automations, and develop practical internal tools and integrations.
This is a hands-on engineering role with an important initial focus on system transition and knowledge transfer. You’ll work closely with a departing programmer to understand the existing Python codebase, production workflows, integrations, dependencies, and automations before assuming ownership of the environment.
As the transition progresses, your focus will shift toward improving reliability, reducing technical debt, expanding automations, strengthening integrations, and building new internal tools based on business needs.
If you’re comfortable inheriting an existing codebase, troubleshooting production systems,



and gradually making them more reliable and maintainable, this role is a strong fit.
