A key area of specialization will be ensuring seamless integration within UK-aligned time zones, actively contributing to architectural decisions in a polyglot database environment involving MongoDB and PostgreSQL.

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

• Scale the Architecture: Develop robust, scalable microservices from concept to deployment, focusing on high-performance backend logic using Go

• Drive Quality & Standards: Join a culture of full ownership - contributing to code reviews, unit testing, and ensuring smooth onboarding for future team members in a long-term partnership context

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

• 4+ years of professional experience in backend software development, with a proven track record of delivering production-grade microservices

• Strong proficiency in Go and its ecosystem. We value deep understanding of concurrency patterns and idiomatic Go over just syntax knowledge

• Proficiency in working with MongoDB (schema design, indexing) and PostgreSQL in a high-throughput environment

• Experience with React.js or a strong willingness to contribute to Full-Stack tickets is a significant plus

• Familiarity with containerization, Kubernetes, and modern CI/CD pipelines

• Autonomy & Ownership: Ability to take a feature from concept to deployment with minimal hand-holding - essential for our Core squad structure

• Location: Must be based within the European Union (EU) to ensure timezone alignment

• Exceptional communication skills to articulate technical trade-offs to Product Managers and Engineering Leads
