Backend go developer in fintech
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)
