Job Specifications

Senior Software Engineer (MongoDB / Django) - 6-Month Contract - Outside IR35 - Fully Remote

About the Role

Aimtech Recruitment are looking for a Senior Software Engineer with deep expertise in MongoDB to help solve complex integration challenges between Django and MongoEngine within a live production environment.

This is a hands-on engineering role, suited to someone who can move beyond theory -- designing, implementing, and optimising real-world solutions that enhance the performance, scalability, and maintainability of our data layer.

You'll join a collaborative engineering team and act as a subject-matter expert in MongoDB usage, schema design, and data interaction patterns within Django applications.

What You'll Do

Design and implement solutions that improve how Django and MongoDB interoperate.
Review and refactor existing data models, ensuring performance and scalability.
Work closely with backend teams to guide best practices around schema design, indexing, and query optimisation.
Educate and mentor engineers on effective MongoDB usage patterns and integration strategies.
Help evolve internal tooling, libraries, and data access layers to streamline development.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience as a Senior Software Engineer with a strong focus on backend systems and database design.
Advanced MongoDB knowledge - schema design, aggregation pipelines, performance tuning, replication, and indexing strategies.
Strong experience with Django and MongoEngine, including hands-on integration work.
Ability to architect, build, and deliver solutions -- not just advise or design theoretically.
Solid Python experience.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills, especially in remote teams.

Nice to Have

Experience with system architecture, microservices, or scaling data-driven applications.
Familiarity with AWS or GCP.
Previous work in mentoring or technical leadership roles.
