About the Project

We’re collaborating with a fast-growing tech company that is building a comprehensive web platform powered by Django and React. The system processes large datasets and provides interactive dashboards, workflow automation tools, and real-time data insights for enterprise clients.

The product includes a Django-based backend with REST APIs, cloud-hosted services, background workers, and a React front-end application that visualizes data, manages user flows, and enables rich UI interactions.
You will work on feature development, performance improvements, API integrations, and the modernization of both the backend and frontend systems.

You’ll join the project during an active development phase - working closely with the client’s technical team and PLANEKS engineers. Communication is via Slack, with occasional sync calls for technical discussions, planning, and demos.
The client is based in Europe.
