Senior Go Engineer

The Go Engineer is responsible for leading the design, development, and operation of scalable, resilient microservices that power customer-facing and internal technology products. This role drives backend architecture and distributed systems strategy while also contributing to modern, responsive front-end applications.

You will serve as a technical anchor for our service-oriented architecture, leading the design of independently deployable services in Go and driving high availability, performance, and observability standards across the organization. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in microservice architecture, API design, inter-service communication, and cloud-native.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of scalable, resilient microservices using Go, setting patterns and standards for the broader engineering team
• Define and maintain clear API contracts (REST and/or event-driven interfaces) between services
• Architect distributed systems with a focus on reliability, scalability, and fault tolerance
• Implement inter-service communication patterns (synchronous and asynchronous)
• Design and manage service-level database schemas and data ownership models
• Build and maintain responsive front-end components that consume backend services
• Implement observability practices including logging, monitoring, tracing, and alerting
• Lead code reviews, mentor engineers across experience levels, and champion engineering best practices organization-wide
• Partner cross-functionally with DevOps, QA, product, and design teams; serve as a technical liaison and contribute to roadmap and architecture decisions
• Document service architecture, APIs, and operational procedures
