# Senior Python Engineer

> Aerones · Rīga, Latvia · Full-time · Posted 2026-03-20

**Workplace:** on_site

**Department:** Platform development

## Description

**AERONES**, the global leader in robotic wind turbine maintenance operating across 30+ countries, is seeking a **Senior Python Engineer** to build backend services and data pipelines using Django, PostgreSQL, and **AI coding agents as your primary development tool**.

This isn't traditional engineering where AI is optional — we're looking for engineers who've embraced autonomous AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) as their core workflow, shipping production code through specification-driven, agent-augmented development.

Our software platform powers inspection analytics, operations planning, and customer portals — connecting field robotics to actionable data across thousands of wind turbines worldwide.

### **What You'll Do:**

-   Build REST APIs, data models, migrations, and background tasks using Django & PostgreSQL with AI agents as your primary tool
-   Design data pipelines processing inspection data from drone and crawler operations
-   Create context documentation (CLAUDE.md files, system prompts) that makes AI agents effective in our codebase
-   Optimize PostgreSQL queries and ensure backend services scale with global operations
-   Review and validate agent-generated code — ensure tests pass, edge cases are covered, and code is production-ready
-   Help the team adopt AI-native development through shared tooling and demonstration

## Requirements

**Must have:**

-   5+ years Python development with significant Django & PostgreSQL production experience
-   Deep Django expertise: ORM, REST framework, migrations, Celery, complex queries, JSON operations
-   Daily use of AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) in production work
-   "Delegate, Review, Own" mentality — you hand off implementation to agents, review (not write) most code, and own outcomes
-   Strong understanding of testing, CI/CD, and architecture patterns
-   Fluent English

**Nice to have:**

-   GCP infrastructure experience
-   AI product features (LLM APIs, embeddings, RAG)
-   Wind energy, robotics, or industrial IoT background
