Responsibilities:

• Develop, test, and maintain high-quality Go applications.
• Own the deployment and operation of production workloads.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues efficiently.
• Contribute to deployment processes and CI/CD pipelines.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact solutions.
• Engage in architectural discussions and implement best practices.
• Develop team ways of working and mentor less senior engineers

Requirements:

• 5+ years of professional software development experience with at least 3+ years using Golang.
• Strong expertise in production-level troubleshooting and debugging.
• Experience developing microservices architecture and event-driven systems.

• Experience working on medium-to-large scale distributed systems in production.
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects.
• High engagement, motivation, and a problem-solving mindset.

• Experience working on medium-to-large scale distributed systems in production.
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects.
• Strong English communication skills (both written and spoken).
• High engagement, motivation, and a problem-solving mindset.

Non-technical requirements we are seeking to best fit into our team:

• Align and contribute to business goals rather than picking/working on what they like/want to experiment
• Team player rather than someone who prefers working individually
• Analyze users' needs, collect requirements, design, and develop software to meet those needs
• Should be quick in implementation, deliver in time (respect the given due dates)
• Accountability, transparency (open communication, regular updates, visible progress etc.)
• Responsible for the performance of the product in all its aspects

Interview Process:

• Our interview processes generally includes personal interviews, technical assessments, behavioral interviews, and maybe an AI honeypot evaluation. Candidates must demonstrate their technical expertise without relying on external assistance (Google/AI) during the interview.
