Posted Updated 10 views
Discussion

Summary

Senior backend engineer owning Go feature delivery end to end on AWS (Lambda, EventBridge, SQS, RDS) for a fintech: event-driven APIs, PostgreSQL tuning, ADR/HLD documentation, CI/CD, and GDPR/EU AI Act compliance. Mentors juniors and reviews AI-agent (Claude Code) output. Hybrid Lisbon: 2 office days, 3 from home.

Задачи:

  • Own complete backend feature development from spec through deployment - Go services on AWS
  • Lead architectural discussions and document decisions in ADRs and LLD/HLD documents
  • Build and review AI agent workflows using Claude Code, or equivalent tools - delegate implementation, review all output
  • Design and operate scalable, event-driven services - APIs, queues and jobs (e.g. Go on Lambda, EventBridge, SQS)
  • Integrate with internal platform services and third-party APIs (credit, CRM / marketing-automation, CMS)
  • Enforce GDPR and EU AI Act compliance requirements in every feature - data privacy is architecture, not a checkbox
  • Mentor mid-level and junior engineers; set the bar for code quality and AI-assisted development practices

Требования:

  • 5+ years backend experience; 2+ years of production Go strongly preferred - strong backend engineers from an adjacent typed/compiled language (e.g. Rust, Java, C#, Kotlin) willing to move to Go will be considered (see Additional Information)
  • Strong command of Go concurrency - goroutines, channels, context - and idiomatic Go
  • Solid API design (REST and/or gRPC) with clear domain boundaries
  • Writes clean, structured code using best practices (SOLID, clear domain boundaries, DTOs)
  • Deep relational-database experience (PostgreSQL): schema design, performance, query optimization
  • Experience designing scalable, event-driven systems (queues, jobs, APIs, integrations)
  • Knowledge of testing (Go test, table-driven) and static analysis tooling
  • Comfortable with debugging, performance tuning, and zero-downtime deployments
  • Cloud-native on AWS - Lambda, EventBridge, SQS, RDS (serverless, event-driven patterns)
  • Comfortable operating services in production - monitoring, alerting, incident response
  • Infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD for backend services
  • Containerisation (Docker) and service-to-service integration
  • Будет плюсом: Existing daily use of agentic coding tools - able to describe and demonstrate a personal AI development workflow and tooling setup (e.g. CLAUDE.md, project rules, context engineering) - is a strong plus, not a prerequisite; PHP/Laravel familiarity for legacy touchpoints; TypeScript/React exposure for front-end integration work; Experience in regulated / fintech environments (GDPR, financial data); observability tooling (metrics, tracing, logging)

Условия:

2 times a week work from Lisbon office (Avenida da Liberdade, Nr. 36, 7th floor, Lisbon) 3 days a week from home
