We are a global OSINT company headquartered in the US, empowering investigators and security professionals with cutting-edge AI-powered products. Our technology collects and analyzes massive volumes of data from open sources, including social media, messengers, and the dark web, to create a comprehensive picture for data-driven investigations and decision-making.
Our customers include S&P 500 companies and law enforcement agencies in 80+ countries worldwide. Social Links is scaling rapidly, growing 2x annually, with the ambition of becoming a unicorn valued at $1B+.
We are looking for a Go Developer to help us with the new project we're building. This is an ODP, an AI-Native OSINT Open Data Platform for threat intelligence and investigation workflows. This is a cloud-native, microservices-based distributed system designed for intelligence operations at scale.
Scale: 300M requests/month | 10K concurrent workflows | 99.99% availability
Your Tasks Will Be:
- Design and implement high-throughput REST APIs using Gin
- Build Temporal workflows and activities for complex, multi-step data pipelines
- Create robust validation logic for YAML DSL against ontology schemas
- Integrate with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Delta Lake data stores
Key Patterns You'll Work With:
- YAML DSL → Temporal Workflows: parse declarative pipelines and generate durable execution plans
- Multi-tenant isolation: namespace-level separation, RBAC via Keycloak
Our Ideal Candidate Has:
- Strong production experience with Go
- Strong understanding of distributed systems and microservices patterns
- Experience with workflow orchestration: Temporal, Cadence, or similar
- Proficiency with PostgreSQL and schema design
- Experience building high-throughput REST APIs
- Familiarity with event-driven architecture: Kafka, Pulsar, or similar
- Solid understanding of concurrency patterns in Go: goroutines, channels, context
- Experience with Docker and basic understanding of Kubernetes/container orchestration
- English – intermediate level or higher
- Russian – advanced level or higher
Nice To Haves:
- Background in OSINT, threat intelligence, or security domain
- Experience with MongoDB and document databases
- Familiarity with Delta Lake or data lakehouse patterns
- Kubernetes deployment and operations experience
- Experience with gRPC alongside REST
What We Offer:
- Remote-first setup: work from anywhere in the world, except Russia and Belarus
- Work on a greenfield, technically challenging product: distributed system at scale
- High degree of ownership: influence architecture, reliability, and engineering practices
- Strong engineering culture: code reviews, clear boundaries, focus on maintainability and observability
- Direct collaboration with senior technical stakeholders: engineering leadership, product
We are an equal-opportunity employer and are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment for all candidates.
