    Software Engineer (C# / Python) – Platform & Observability Focus

    Location: London (Hybrid) - Hub Model

    Contract Type: Permanent

    We’re looking for a Software Engineer with a strong platform engineering mindset, ideally coming from a background close to observability, shared tooling, or developer infrastructure.

    This is a cross-platform engineering role focused on building shared engineering patterns, SDKs, and reusable libraries used across multiple teams – not single-product feature delivery.

    🔧 Key focus of the role

    → Build and maintain SDKs, libraries, and shared engineering components

    → Work on cross-team platform solutions and engineering standards

    → Contribute to observability tooling and instrumentation (OpenTelemetry exposure required)

    → Improve engineering consistency through reusable patterns and automation

    → Support distributed systems and backend engineering initiatives

    → Work across C# and Python environments

    → Collaborate with engineers to improve reliability, telemetry, and system insight

    🧠 What we’re looking for

    → Strong Software Engineering background in C# and/or Python

    → Experience building SDKs, libraries, or internal developer tooling

    → Familiarity with observability concepts (Otel, tracing, metrics, logging)

    → Experience working in distributed systems or platform-style environments

    → Strong understanding of software design patterns and reusable architecture

    → Comfortable working across multiple teams and systems

    ⭐ Nice to have

    → Hands-on OpenTelemetry experience (not just awareness)

    → Kubernetes / cloud-native environments

    → DevOps, CI/CD, or automation tooling exposure

    → Background in platform engineering or SRE-style roles

    🌍 Important context

    → Focus is shared engineering infrastructure, not feature development

    → Cross-platform role with strong DevOps / backend engineering overlap

    → Exposure to observability is key — not expert level, but must be familiar
