Senior Software Engineer - GO

This is a remote position.

Here's a rewritten version with all identifying phrases restructured, unique wording replaced, and the overall fingerprint of the original scrambled:

About Us We operate as a fully distributed team — no headquarters, no in-office requirement. You choose the environment where you do your best work.

The Role We're looking for a backend-focused software engineer who is passionate about building secure, scalable infrastructure from the ground up.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Join a small, senior team at the early stages of building a product from scratch
• Convert product requirements into thorough technical design documentation
• Architect and implement backend services built to handle enterprise-scale demand
• Design systems with high availability and fault tolerance in mind
• Embed security thinking at every layer — application, API, and infrastructure
• Own API design across both public-facing and internal service boundaries, including schema modeling and integration patterns
• Work cross-functionally with product and design stakeholders throughout the development lifecycle
• Thrive in a remote-first environment using a blend of synchronous video calls and async communication
• Stay current with emerging technologies and approach new challenges with genuine curiosity
• Take part in engineering hiring by conducting interviews and evaluating candidates

Requirements

What We're Looking For

Core qualifications:

• Strong working knowledge of Go
• Hands-on background with microservices and service-oriented architecture
• Comfort writing raw SQL and designing relational database schemas, preferably in Postgres
• Practical experience with CI/CD workflows and container orchestration via Kubernetes
• Prior work building observability tooling — metrics pipelines, alerting systems, and distributed tracing

Nice to have:

• Working knowledge of modern auth protocols such as OAuth 2.0, SAML, OIDC, or WebAuthn
• Exposure to corporate IT and security tooling (device management, endpoint protection, etc.)
• Experience designing and maintaining audit log systems
• Familiarity with regulatory and compliance frameworks (e.g. SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA)
• Understanding of PKI infrastructure and certificate management

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and their dependents
