What you need
- Extensive experience building and scaling backend services in Go in high-traffic, high-volume SaaS environments
- Proven ability to design distributed microservice architectures, including asynchronous processing (Kafka, SQS), low-latency service communication (gRPC, ConnectRPC or GraphQL) and long-running or resource-intensive workloads with queueing, backpressure and retry strategies
- Deep AWS knowledge (EKS, S3, Lambda) alongside solid relational database skills, ideally Postgres: schema design, query performance and handling growth
- Strong production discipline: observability, performance profiling, debugging live systems, code review and automated testing
- Comfortable owning and documenting architectural decisions
- Good written and spoken English
Nice to have
- Media processing experience such as video transcoding, audio synthesis or vector manipulation
- AI infrastructure experience: model serving at scale, GPU-accelerated workloads, integrating third-party or open-source generative models into production, and cost optimisation for compute-heavy jobs
- Background in a startup or other fast-moving, distributed environment, with an interest in helping shape product direction
Worth weighing
- No salary listed
- Role requires significant independent work due to asynchronous collaboration with the Amsterdam headquarters
- Candidates must already reside in Australia or New Zealand to be considered for this role
