Mohamed Elqdusy is a Senior Software Engineer based in Amsterdam with a decade of experience designing secure, scalable distributed systems and a formal background in computer science. He brings 8+ years of focused backend expertise, shipping production-grade services and security-minded architectures for high-assurance domains such as Central Bank Digital Currency at Giesecke+Devrient. Previously at Axiom, he contributed across the stack to durable systems and has proven experience integrating testing, configuration, and automation into core infrastructure. An active open-source contributor, Mohamed implemented attribute processors and a probabilistic trace sampler for the widely used OpenTelemetry Collector, demonstrating practical telemetry and observability expertise. He combines hands-on implementation (factories, configs, tests) with process improvements like automated license integration, showing attention to both code quality and project governance. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic solutions that balance reliability, security, and operational insight.

Contributions summary:Mohamed primarily contributed to the implementation of the `attribute-key` and `add-attributes` processors within the OpenTelemetry collector. Their work involved creating factories, configurations, and tests for these processors, ensuring they correctly handled attributes in telemetry data. They also integrated a license check and added license to the project using an automated process. Moreover, the user implemented a probabilistic sampler for traces, which was later renamed to `probabilistic-sampler`.
