Python Recruitment Consultant at trg 🚀 Scaling world leading engineering teams across EMEA, AMER and APAC 🌍

Senior Software Engineer (Python) – Contract | Outside IR35

We’re partnering with a well-funded, fast-scaling AI & tech upskilling platform that works with 1,500+ organisations to help people build real-world skills in data, AI, and software engineering.

This is a chance to join a high-calibre product engineering team working on systems that impact the learning and career outcomes of thousands of users, while helping organisations adopt technology more effectively.

The opportunity

You’ll join a domain-focused engineering team, gaining deep ownership of specific product areas and contributing to scalable, user-centred solutions across the platform.

You’ll be solving complex, meaningful problems and working on systems that continue to evolve as the platform scales internationally.

What you’ll be working on

• Designing and improving user-facing platform experiences that identify potential and intent
• Scaling systems that support education quality and learner engagement
• Building internal tools that make engineering more scalable and enjoyable
• Exploring and integrating AI-powered capabilities to improve learning and coaching outcomes
• Working across both existing systems and greenfield projects

Tech environment

• Python (core backend)
• AWS
• TypeScript, React
• Modern CI/CD and cloud-native tooling
• Experience with event-driven architecture is a plus, but not a blocker.

What they’re looking for

• Strong experience building robust, scalable systems (typically 5+ years, but flexible)
• Comfort working across the full development lifecycle – from requirements through to production support
• A collaborative mindset and experience working in cross-functional product teams
• Curiosity and openness to learning new tools, including AI-assisted development
• 6 months+, with openness to a permanent transition
• Hybrid: 3 days onsite in Paddington

If you’re a Python Developer who enjoys ownership, product thinking, and working on technology that genuinely improves people’s outcomes, this is well worth a conversation.
