What are the responsibilities and job description for the Python Developer (AWS, Serverless) position at OPENDataJobs?
At Peregrine Advisors, you will develop Python applications on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and take responsibility for the components you deliver. But we hire people, not seats. As the work evolves, you will learn new systems and tools, take on greater responsibility, and help develop the firm's capabilities, tools, and lines of business. We move our best to where the hardest problems are.
This is a full-time W-2 position with a salary of $120,000 to $140,000 per year. It is a hybrid work arrangement based in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, and the commuting cadence varies by assignment. The initial engagement requires United States citizenship and the ability to obtain a Public Trust determination.
We are a data and technology innovation hub and a Benefit Corporation working at the center of the federal government's mission to deliver for client stakeholders and the US public.
Your first project
Your first project will likely have you taking user stories from refinement through production. Depending on the assignment, you may:
This is where you start, not the shape of your career here.
Requirements
You care about what you build and judge it by whether it works for the people who rely on it. As priorities move, you move with them, and you learn a new tool or domain deeply enough to make judgment calls in it rather than follow instructions. You communicate clearly, adapt across roles and clients, and care about creating public value. You experiment, fail, learn, and repeat quickly. You would rather own an outcome than be handed a task.
What You Bring
When we talk
Be prepared to discuss a difficult problem you worked through, the decisions you made, what happened, and what you learned.
Benefits
Medical, dental, and vision with the employee premium fully paid and half of dependent premiums; employer-paid life, accidental death, and short-term and long-term disability insurance; a 401(k) matched 100% up to 4% of salary, vesting immediately; unlimited paid time off; and sponsored professional certifications and continuing education.
What We Offer
You will work alongside developers, engineers, data scientists, architects, and strategists, on work ranging from strategy to implementation. We support your development across assignments and clients through extensive onboarding, sponsored professional certifications such as the Data Management Capability Assessment Model (DCAM) and AWS technical certifications, and rotation across functions to expand your skills and perspective. The mission is real, the problems are hard, and you own what you ship.
What We Commit To
As a Benefit Corporation, our commitment runs three ways: real, measurable value for our clients; government that works better for the public; and a team that makes everyone in it better.
We hire people who want to help build the firm, not just work at it. If that is you, apply.
Peregrine Advisors is an equal opportunity employer.

Your first project
Your first project will likely have you taking user stories from refinement through production. Depending on the assignment, you may:
- Build serverless, event-driven application workflows using AWS Lambda and Step Functions
- Integrate commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products with frameworks developed in-house
- Build internal and external application programming interface (API) connections

This is where you start, not the shape of your career here.
Requirements
- 4 years of software development experience
- Bachelor's degree
- Working-level command of Python
- Experience with modern languages and frameworks, and with version control
- Familiarity with cloud development on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) concepts
- Ability to turn a defined specification into working, tested code and own it through to production
- Basic proficiency in writing, PowerPoint, and Excel
- Hands-on delivery of production workloads on Amazon Web Services (AWS), or an AWS certification
- Federal information technology experience
- Familiarity with AI-assisted developer tooling

What You Bring
- A practical command of modern cloud development, with the range to build something new or make an existing system work better
- The matching delivery habits, meaning version control, unit and integration testing, code review, secure coding, and accessibility
- Plain-language communication about your work with the people who depend on it, explaining clearly and listening for what they need
- The precision to work where accuracy and auditability are not optional
