We need a Senior Backend Engineer with a strong focus on Go who can architect scalable systems, ship production-ready code, and own the entire deployment pipeline — from local development to cloud infrastructure.
What You'll Do
-
Design and implement high-performance backend services in Go
-
Build and maintain cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure
-
Own the DevOps pipeline — from CI/CD to monitoring and alerting
-
Lead our SOC 2 compliance efforts, implementing security best practices
-
Create robust APIs that power our AI-driven supply chain platform
-
Optimize for performance, reliability, and cost across cloud providers
-
Automate infrastructure provisioning and deployment processes
-
Collaborate with frontend engineers to design efficient data flows
-
Make architectural decisions that balance speed of delivery with long-term maintainability
You Should Have
-
5-10 years of backend development experience
-
Strong Go programming skills (minimum 2+ years preferred)
-
Proven experience with AWS, GCP, and Azure — not just one cloud provider
-
Deep understanding of cloud-native architectures and microservices
-
Hands-on DevOps experience (Docker, Kubernetes, Pulumi, etc.)
-
Security-first mindset with understanding of compliance frameworks
-
Self-driven approach with ability to own projects end-to-end
-
Experience shipping production systems that scale
Bonus Points
-
SOC 2 compliance experience — you've been through the audit process
-
Built AI/ML infrastructure or data pipelines at scale
-
Experience with multi-cloud deployments and cost optimization
-
Track record of improving developer velocity through tooling and automation
-
Background in supply chain, logistics, or enterprise software
Why Join Us?
-
You'll have direct impact — this isn't a cog-in-the-machine role
-
Own the entire backend architecture and infrastructure decisions
-
Work with a lean team where your decisions shape the product and culture
-
Build fast, experiment often, and learn from real users
-
High ownership with the flexibility to work where and when you're most productive
-
Join early, grow with the company, and help define engineering excellence
To Apply
Tell us about a backend system you built that balanced rapid development with production reliability. We'd love to hear about a time you improved deployment speed, reduced cloud costs, or implemented security controls without slowing down the team. Bonus if you can share architecture diagrams or performance metrics.
