We are hiring a Python engineer for a top tier banking client in Glasgow. This is a hands on individual contributor role building production services that automate data governance at enterprise scale: data lineage, data quality rules, critical data elements and business glossaries, delivered as code that other systems and teams depend on.
You will design and build Python services, working with tools such as FastAPI and Pydantic, that integrate with enterprise data platforms, automate governance controls and expose clean APIs to the wider organisation. AI assisted development is part of the daily toolkit, with the judgement to know when the output is right.
Background
- 7+ years of professional software engineering, with production Python services at the core of your recent work.
- Full lifecycle development experience: design, build, deployment and support, with real ownership of services in live environments.
- Confident API design and integration work, including REST, JSON, YAML and SQL.
- Solid modern engineering habits: Git, code review, automated testing, documentation and CI/CD.
- A track record of building reusable libraries and components that other engineers pick up and depend on.
- Comfortable working with large, complex data sets where performance, integrity and traceability matter.
- A clear communicator, able to work across technology, risk and business teams and own outcomes end to end.
What sets you apart
- A background in banking or another regulated industry.
- Exposure to metadata, lineage, data quality or governance tooling in any form.
