Senior GO Developer

London (Waterloo) - 1 day a week in office

£90,000-£110,000 + equity

Go, Rust, AWS/Serverless, Kubernetes, AI Integrations

Venture backed, recently funded scale up

️ High scale, ultra low latency infrastructure with genuine architectural influence

We’re partnered with a venture backed scale up operating at the cutting edge of 3D and AR advertising. They build high scale, ultra low latency infrastructure to support global brands.

They’re now hiring a Senior Backend Developer to join a brand new engineering team, to lead the architectural shift from an expensive Docker on Kubernetes setups toward a serverless, event driven model.

This is a high impact role for someone who wants real architectural input, not just delivery. You’ll design, build and maintain low latency, high throughput backend services in GO/Golang and work with an existing Rust codebase.

You’ll report directly to the CTO and have the space to offer key architectural insight on serverless migration, integrate cutting edge AI models into the product suite, and AI in the developer workflow.

It’s best suited to someone who thrives working independently and as part of a small team.

Ideal experience:

• Production experience building with GO/Golang and/or Rust
• Experience designing high throughput data and metrics pipelines and integrating AI models or API endpoints
• Strong knowledge of serverless technologies, with hands on experience migrating workloads from containerised to serverless environments
• Experience owning both backend product engineering and some platform tasks

Bonus

• Experience working with Docker and Kubernetes architecture
• Self motivated, with strong architectural judgement and clear technical communication
