SDE 1 - Golang

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain microservices in Go that support high-scale, low-latency systems for order management, inventory, and logistics.
• Build and optimise RESTful and gRPC APIs consumed by internal platforms and partner applications.
• Collaborate with product managers, architects, and cross-functional engineering teams to translate business requirements into robust technical solutions.
• Own the full lifecycle of services: design, development, testing, deployment, monitoring, and on-call support.
• Optimise systems for performance, scalability, and fault tolerance under high-concurrency, real-time traffic.
• Write clean, well-tested, and maintainable code, and participate actively in code reviews.
• Work with distributed data stores, caching layers, and message queues to build resilient event-driven systems.
• Contribute to architectural decisions, including service decomposition, data modelling, and system design reviews.
• Debug and resolve production issues, driving root-cause analysis and long-term fixes.

Requirements:

• 5 - 3 years of professional software development experience, with strong hands-on expertise in Go (Golang).
• Solid understanding of concurrency patterns in Go (goroutines, channels, sync primitives).
• Experience building and scaling microservices architectures in production environments.
• Strong grasp of data structures, algorithms, and system design fundamentals.
• Hands-on experience with relational and NoSQL databases (e. g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Cassandra).
• Experience with message brokers/streaming platforms such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar.
• Familiarity with containerization and orchestration tools (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Working knowledge of caching systems such as Redis or Memcached.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Understanding of observability practices: logging, metrics, and distributed tracing.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).

Good to Have:

• Prior experience in quick-commerce, e-commerce, food-tech, or logistics platforms.
• Exposure to event-driven architectures and domain-driven design.
• Experience mentoring junior engineers or leading small technical initiatives.
• Contributions to open-source Go projects or active involvement in the Go community.
