Job description

We are seeking an experienced Go Application Engineer to design and build high-performance backend services, infrastructure tooling, and cloud-native applications using Go. In this role you will work on systems where latency, concurrency, and operational efficiency are first-class concerns, and you will contribute to a codebase shared by engineers across multiple teams. The ideal candidate will combine strong Go expertise with broad systems knowledge, including network programming, container ecosystems, and distributed system design. In this role you will work closely with cross-functional partners - product, design, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders - to translate ambiguous requirements into well-engineered solutions, and will be expected to raise the bar through code review, design review, and mentorship of more junior engineers. The successful candidate brings strong engineering discipline, a clear communication style, and a track record of shipping meaningful work that holds up well in production.

Requirements

Sponsorship: U.S. Citizens, Green Card Holders, EAD Holders, and H-1B transfer candidates are encouraged to apply. We are unable to sponsor new H-1B visa petitions for this position., * Five or more years of professional software engineering experience, with significant time in Go.

  • Strong understanding of Go concurrency patterns (goroutines, channels, contexts).
  • Hands-on experience building production gRPC and/or REST APIs in Go.
  • Experience with Kubernetes-native development (client-go, controller-runtime).
  • Solid experience with relational and key-value data stores.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems and networking fundamentals.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and container-based deployment.
  • Excellent debugging and performance-engineering skills.
  • Strong communication and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Open-source contributions to Go-based projects.
  • Experience writing Kubernetes operators or controllers.
  • Familiarity with eBPF, service mesh, or low-level systems programming.
  • Exposure to security-sensitive Go projects (cryptography, auth).
  • Experience with WASM, Tinygo, or embedded systems.
