As the EU releases new FAQs or adjustments, you will help interpret their implications and adapt parts of the system to remain consistent and compliant. • General backend engineering. Python + PostgreSQL/PostGIS development, improving observability, contributing to CI/CD pipelines, and helping make the system more resilient over time.
