The Role
Design, build, and maintain production-grade backend services in Go; extend Kubernetes via CRDs/operators; implement CI/CD and GitOps workflows; manage infra as code with Helm/Kustomize/Terraform; add observability with Prometheus/OpenSearch; troubleshoot distributed systems; participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to documentation and open-source.
Summary Generated by Built In
As a Cloud-Native Developer - Golang, you will:
- Design, develop, and maintain production-grade backend services using Golang.
- Build and extend Kubernetes functionality using Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) and Operators.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex Kubernetes workloads, services, and distributed systems.
- Develop automation scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps workflows using GitHub Actions and related tools.
- Implement observability solutions including metrics, logging, and alerting using Prometheus and OpenSearch.
- Manage infrastructure as code using Helm, Kustomize, and Terraform.
- Participate in Agile ceremonies such as sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives.
- Contribute to internal documentation, code reviews, and open-source initiatives related to cloud-native technologies.
What You Bring to the Table:
- 5+ years of total development experience, with at least 3 years dedicated to Golang.
- Strong proficiency in writing idiomatic Go code with effective testing and dependency management practices.
- Proven hands-on experience managing Kubernetes clusters and resources using kubectl and Helm/Kustomize.
- In-depth understanding of microservice architecture, API-first development, and distributed systems.
