Kickstart your career as an Entry-Level Python Backend Developer, focusing on building simple server-side applications and database interactions. Use Python with frameworks like Flask to create APIs and handle user data securely. Perfect for beginners looking to gain practical backend experience in a remote setting.
In this Entry-Level Python Backend Developer position at Baishi, you'll embark on a structured journey to master backend development using Python, ideal for new graduates or developers with 0-1 year of experience. Our remote certified initiative provides a nurturing space to explore backend fundamentals while contributing to innovative AI-driven projects.
Begin with essential Python topics: syntax, loops, conditionals, and modular code organization. You'll quickly advance to object-oriented programming, creating reusable classes for backend logic. Data structures will be key as you manipulate lists, dictionaries, and queues to process incoming requests efficiently.
File handling will be a core skill, teaching you to manage configuration files, logs, and user uploads. Dive into API integration by building and consuming endpoints, using libraries like urllib or Requests to fetch and send data in formats like XML and JSON. This hands-on approach ensures you understand how backends power web applications.
Entry-level backend practices include setting up lightweight servers with Flask, handling HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), and implementing basic authentication. You'll learn to connect Python to databases using SQLAlchemy for SQLite or PostgreSQL, performing CRUD operations on sample datasets.
Mentorship is integral: your assigned mentor will conduct pair programming sessions, explain design patterns like MVC, and guide you through testing with unit tests via pytest. Git workflows will be introduced for collaborative development, emphasizing branching and merging.
Growth opportunities abound—tackle challenges like error handling with try-except blocks, virtual environments for dependency management, and basic security measures against common vulnerabilities. Projects might involve developing backend services for AI model deployment or data pipelines, all scaled to beginner levels.
This 1-year commitment focuses on holistic development, blending technical prowess with agile methodologies and team communication. Regular retrospectives will help refine your skills, and you'll build a strong portfolio showcasing backend contributions. We prioritize work-life balance in our remote setup, ensuring you have time to absorb and apply new knowledge. At Baishi, your entry into Python backend development will be empowering and transformative.
