Job Description
We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Software Engineer with strong Golang expertise to support our ongoing application development efforts while we progressively transition the codebase to C#. This role is critical in ensuring that new features and maintenance tasks continue seamlessly in the current Go-based system, without introducing regression or loss of functionality during the migration process.
Key Responsibilities:
- Contribute to the enhancement and maintenance of a production application currently written in Go.
- Develop new features and support bug fixes in the Golang codebase while collaborating with teams migrating code to C#.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including Product, QA, and DevOps to ensure stability and continuity of service.
- Participate in code reviews, write unit/integration tests, and ensure high-quality delivery in a CI/CD environment.
- Help identify and bridge gaps or potential issues that may arise from migrating core functionality from Go to C#.
- Write documentation and provide support during the transition phase to ensure nothing is lost or overlooked in the process.
- Assist in knowledge transfer and potentially support portions of the migration if needed.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
· 7+ years of professional experience in Go (Golang) development.
· Experience with building and maintaining scalable backend services and RESTful APIs.
· Solid understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems.
· Familiarity with software migration practices, including reverse engineering and feature parity validation.
· Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail — especially important during parallel development and migration.
· Experience with version control tools like Git, and working in an Agile/Scrum environment.
· Comfortable working with CI/CD pipelines and containerization tools (e.g., Docker)
Pay: $60.00 - $65.00 per hour
