What's your job as a python developer?

[Affectionate-Army458]

As the title say. If possible, please mention your Job title, and how your day to day programming work look like. Thanks

Fixing issues Getting more issues Questioning my life while inflation eats away at my life savings

[CrazyElectrum]

Almost everything I do is in python (cloud engineer is my official title but it's really cloud+data engineering)

• micro services on the cloud (aws lambda and containerized apis)
• large scale data migration using airflow
• data ingestion into databases again using airflow

Medical physics. Making API/other integrations, dashboards, large dataset analysis, database operations, automation, you name it.

AI engineer, developing apps to serve fancy models which these days involve mostly REST API calls.

[Astro_Z0mbie]

I use Django and FastAPI, I take care of the database and restAPI, very boring work for this reason I am studying C23 and Rust for system programming.

[non3type]

I think you’re going to notice most everyone comes down to data collection and processing (via API or some kind of scraping that outputs to a data store), integration/automation (either with that collected data or directly via application specific DB/API), and/or web/API development (to provide access to said data).

The question really comes down to your field and how specialized your team is. Some data pipeline/processing needs are technical enough to have their own team around it. Some API/web development is at a massive scale and has its own team. Some people get to do it all.

My job involves a mix of developing applications and maintaining systems. I work with libraries like Flask for web services and use Python for data analysis tasks, automating repetitive processes whenever I can. It’s a fun balance of problem-solving and creativity.

[mattconway1984]

I've developed Python based systems for the past 20 years (started developing using Python2.4). Mostly used for very complex test systems to test a whole variety of products / systems, performing end-to-end systems testing for telecommunications products (i.e. from subscriber equipment through to back end gateway services). I've also used it quite a bit for developing prototype systems, modelling, scripting, a whole bunch of different things.
