Job description
- Design and evolve high-performance backend systems and APIs, primarily using Golang, with Python integrated for specific domain-driven logic.

- Take full-spectrum responsibility for features, from the initial architectural blueprint to production monitoring and scaling.
- Enhance the observability, performance, and security of services running in distributed, resource-intensive environments where data integrity is paramount.
- Work at the intersection of Engineering, ML, and Product to build cohesive, secure systems that enable "AI for good" on a global scale.

- Lead by example through high-quality execution and active participation in rigorous code reviews to uphold engineering standards.
Requirements
- 4+ years of professional experience with a heavy emphasis on building resilient, production-grade backend systems.
- Expert-level Golang skills and the ability to leverage Python effectively within complex problem domains.
- A proven track record of deploying and debugging cloud-native workloads via Kubernetes and Docker.
- Experience with AWS (or similar) and a comfort level working with the unique challenges of hybrid or on-premise deployments.
- A strong practitioner of testing strategies, code maintainability, and secure API design.
- You thrive in fast-paced, iterative environments where you can influence technical direction and navigate pragmatic trade-offs.
- Fluency in English and a strong sense of accountability for technical outcomes and long-term maintainability.
Benefits & conditions
- Competitive salary plus early-stage share options in a scaling deep-tech startup.
- A remote-first culture allowing you to work from home or a local co-working space.
- Comprehensive benefits including budgets for wellbeing, mental health, and home-office setups.
