We seek a passionate Go backend Software Engineer to join our Analytics team and help us build our new data platform fueling business-critical features. You will mainly write new services in Go which run on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Kubernetes, interacting with SQL databases, Kafka, and other services.
Part of your job will be to ensure the eventual consistency of data across multiple databases, high availability, good observability, and efficiency of services. The ability to read Python code is crucial since a significant part of the platform code is written in it and some existing features will be moved from the existing Python code base to new Go services.
The team is working remotely in the Central European Timezone. We are more than happy to meet you in Brno (Czechia) or in Bratislava (Slovakia) where our headquarters is located.
If we piqued your interest, you can chat with Milan, the team's Engineering Manager, or go ahead and apply 🙂.
