This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Software Engineer (Golang Developer) in India.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of advanced cloud-native cybersecurity solutions focused on identity protection and threat detection. You will design and build scalable backend services using Go (Golang) within a distributed, security-first environment. Working closely with product managers, architects, and engineering teams, you will help deliver highly available systems that support authentication, authorization, and policy enforcement capabilities. The position combines hands-on development with technical collaboration, giving you the opportunity to influence architecture and engineering standards. You will work on modern microservices-based platforms leveraging containerization, orchestration, and observability practices. This is an ideal role for engineers passionate about backend systems, cloud technologies, and secure software development in a fast-evolving domain.

• Design, develop, test, and maintain scalable backend services and APIs using Go (Golang).
• Build and enhance identity-focused services including authentication, authorization, token management, and policy enforcement.
• Contribute to architecture discussions and technical decision-making for distributed cloud-native systems.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code following secure software development best practices.
• Participate in peer code reviews to ensure high engineering quality and consistency across the team.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product management, security, SRE, and engineering stakeholders.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve issues within production systems and support operational stability.
• Participate in on-call rotations and contribute to system reliability and incident response processes.
• Improve engineering workflows, tooling, observability, and deployment processes continuously.
• Support the development of highly available and low-latency microservices architectures.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2–4 years of professional backend development experience.
• Strong hands-on experience developing production systems using Go (Golang).
• Solid understanding of distributed systems, APIs, concurrency, and performance optimization concepts.
• Experience with Docker and Kubernetes in containerized environments.
• Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software engineering fundamentals.
• Familiarity with identity and access management concepts, authentication systems, or security-focused platforms.
• Knowledge of identity protocols such as OAuth2, OpenID Connect, SAML, and JWT is a plus.
• Experience designing and operating scalable microservices architectures.
• Understanding of secure coding practices, threat modeling, and application security principles.
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code practices, and observability tools including logging and monitoring systems.
• Strong problem-solving, collaboration, and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a remote-first and cross-functional environment.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary and performance-based compensation package.
• Remote-first work environment with flexible working arrangements.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge cybersecurity and identity protection technologies.
• Access to professional development programs, technical learning resources, and career growth opportunities.
• Inclusive and diverse workplace culture with employee-led communities and initiatives.
• Wellness programs, wellbeing days, webinars, and employee assistance support.
• Participation in global volunteer, sustainability, and social impact initiatives.
• Collaborative and innovation-driven engineering culture with exposure to modern cloud-native technologies.
