We are looking for a strong Tech Lead with deep software engineering and backend expertise to lead a small engineering team and take ownership of technical decisions, architecture, and engineering quality.
This is a hands-on role — you will drive the technical direction of the team while staying deeply involved in production development, architecture, and solving complex engineering challenges.
You will lead a small cross-functional team consisting of 3 Software Engineers and 2 QA Engineers.
Our core backend stack is Go, so we are looking for someone with strong commercial Golang experience and a solid background in building scalable, distributed systems.
We also expect you to actively leverage AI tools to improve engineering quality, productivity, and development velocity.
Responsibilities
- Lead the technical direction of the team and own key architecture decisions.
- Design and develop scalable backend services and APIs using Go.
- Stay hands-on with production code and solve complex technical challenges.
- Design reliable, scalable, and maintainable distributed systems.
- Lead code reviews and maintain high engineering standards across the team.
- Improve system performance, reliability, observability, and scalability.
- Identify technical risks, bottlenecks, and areas for improvement.
- Mentor Software Engineers and support their technical growth.
- Help increase team productivity and improve engineering efficiency.
- Collaborate closely with Product, QA, and other engineering teams.
- Continuously improve development processes, engineering practices, and delivery quality.
- Actively use AI-powered development tools to accelerate engineering workflows and improve code quality.
Requirements
- 7+ years of software engineering experience.
- Strong commercial experience with Go (Golang).
- Strong backend and software engineering background.
- Experience designing scalable architectures and distributed systems.
- Strong understanding of microservices architecture and asynchronous communication patterns.
- Solid experience with PostgreSQL, Redis, and REST APIs.
- Experience with message brokers such as RabbitMQ, Kafka, or similar.
- Experience with Docker and CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience leading engineers and driving technical and architectural decisions.
- Strong hands-on approach — you are comfortable staying close to the code and contributing to production development.
- Strong understanding of engineering best practices, code quality, testing, and system reliability.
- Experience using AI development tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or similar in daily development.
Nice to Have
- Experience with Kubernetes and GitOps.
- Experience building high-load or high-availability systems.
- Experience with event-driven architectures.
- Experience with Web3, blockchain, fintech, or other transaction-heavy products.
- Experience integrating LLM APIs or AI capabilities into production products.
- Experience with TypeScript / Node.js or other backend technologies.
Benefits
- Professional growth: support for courses, conferences, and English learning (up to 100% coverage).
- Work-life fit: remote or hybrid format with flexible hours across international teams.
- Paid leave: up to 20 vacation days + 8 company holidays + 5 personal days per year
- Recognition programs: structured performance reviews and team awards.
- Team culture: retreats in international locations (for example, company apartments in Cyprus).

What We Do
At GoMining, we’re building a Bitcoin-centric superapp and web3 ecosystem — a gateway to earn, engage, and expand your exposure to BTC in entirely new ways. Mining remains our foundation. But our ambition reaches far beyond. Over the past year, we’ve started layering experiences that connect users more deeply with the Bitcoin economy: ? Miner Wars — the world’s first GameFi mining strategy, letting players compete, strategize, and influence real Bitcoin rewards. ? Virtual + debit cards (coming soon) — bringing daily BTC utility to the mainstream. ? A Bitcoin rewards marketplace — turn hashrate earnings into real-world value. ? BTCFi launchpad — early access to Bitcoin-native projects, with allocation rights tied to actual hashrate ownership. We’ve also hit major milestones on the way: ✅ 4,170+ BTC mined ✅ 3,389,230 total registered app users And we’re just getting started. From real mining infrastructure to GameFi, mining rewards, and Bitcoin-powered financial tools — we’re reimagining what it means to interact with Bitcoin. Seamlessly. Strategically. Globally. If you’re a forward-thinker with a passion for blockchain, crypto, and decentralized tech — we’d love to connect. Explore open roles and help us shape the next chapter of Bitcoin.
