I'm working with a Melbourne based software company that urgently needs a hands on Django/Python contractor to help stabilise and rebuild a critical platform.
They need someone who can get deep into a legacy codebase and code alongside a highly technical lead conducting a full platform overhaul.
Requirements
React (nice to have)
Large legacy platform experience highly valued
Existing offshore team has created significant technical debt
Backend and platform stability issues need immediate attention
What They Need
Robust backend engineer with deep Django experience
Someone comfortable untangling messy systems
High-impact role with immediate ownership
CEO is highly engaged and well regarded
Working with VC-backed businesses
Potential pathway into a long-term/full time position
