Responsibilities:
- Build Python backend applications that replicate the functionality of established SaaS platforms.
- Develop REST APIs, microservices, integrations, and complete backend workflows.
- Build new SaaS connectors from scratch and adapt existing integrations when required.
- Perform comprehensive backend testing and integration validation.
- Verify that connectors accurately reproduce the behavior of the systems they emulate.
