Software Craftsperson/Python/AI - II

About Us We believe the future of software development is AI-native — where engineers operate at a higher level of abstraction and quality remains non-negotiable. Incubyte is a software craft consultancy where the “how” of building software matters as much as the “what”. We partner with companies of all sizes, from helping enterprises build, scale, and modernize to early-stage founders bring their ideas to life. Our engineers operate in an AI-native development model, using AI as a collaborator across the SDLC to accelerate development while upholding the discipline of software craftsmanship . Guided by Software Craftsmanship and Extreme Programming practices, we build reliable, maintainable, and scalable systems with speed, without compromising quality. If this way of building software resonates with you, we’d like to tal k. Our Guiding Principles These principles define how we work at Incubyte . They are non-negotiable.

Active Pursuit of Mastery We continuously improve our craft and raise our bar. Invite, Give, and Act on Feedback We seek , give, and act on feedback to get better every day. Ensuring Client Success We act as trusted partners and focus on real outcomes, not just output. Job Description This is a remote position. Role Overview ​ As a Software Craftsperson III, your impact is felt at an initiative/pod-level, solving problems with high autonomy, technical depth, and ability to influence team practices. You promote a learning culture within your team; encourage curiosity and simplification . At this level, you are expected to apply feedback effectively, mentor others, and contribute meaningfully to team and pod-level impact. You provide timely, trend-based feedback that improves team outcomes; and creates impact by leading up and down. At Incubyte , AI is not an add-on but a co-creator in our craft. From refining requirements to reviewing and refactoring code, you’ll pair with AI to explore solutions faster, catch issues earlier, and raise the quality bar continuously. AI accelerates how we learn, experiment, and deliver — enabling you to focus on solving the right problems with impact while being tech and domain agnostic – true consultants at heart. Responsibilities Take responsibility for the full lifecycle of an initiative, independently managing production readiness gaps and escalations. Design and deliver features of end-to-end, balanced scope, quality, and maintainability. Identify technical or product issues beyond the immediate scope of work. Identify process waste using DevEx and DORA principles and drive improvements. Support estimation, vertical slicing, and MVP discussions. Drive initiative-level improvements in flow and quality. Communicate effectively at the appropriate level of abstraction with both team and client. Provide timely, trend-based feedback. Lead through ambiguity by clarifying priorities, aligning stakeholders, and keeping the team focused on outcomes. Promote a learning culture within the team. Mentor engineers to raise team performance. Shape team practices related to code quality, tooling, and process. Use AI to accelerate design, testing, and delivery.
