We present an object-oriented optimization framework that can be employed to solve small- and large-scale problems based on the concept of vectors and operators. By using such a strategy, we implement different iterative optimization algorithms that can be used in combination with architecture-independent vectors and operators, allowing the minimization of single-machine or cluster-based problems with a unique codebase. We implement a Python library following the described structure with a user-friendly interface that is designed to seamlessly scale to high-performance-computing (HPC) environments. We demonstrate its flexibility and scalability on multiple inverse problems, where convex and non-convex objective functions are optimized with different iterative algorithms.
