About the role

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer (Authorization Platform) with deep expertise in Go and enterprise-scale systems. This is a high-impact role contributing to the large-scale migration of authorization logic from a Rails monolith into Go-based microservices, while designing secure, performant, and observable systems.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and deploy features for the Go-based authorization microservices.
• Lead migration of authorization logic from a Ruby on Rails monolith into standalone Go services.
• Architect scalable and secure authorization flows (RBAC, ABAC, deny-by-default).
• Ensure observability: implement logging, metrics, and tracing for reliability.
• Collaborate closely with other engineering teams to ensure seamless integrations.
• Participate in sprint rituals (standups, planning, demos) and proactively own tasks from the backlog.
• Document decisions and share knowledge to improve cross-team collaboration.

Must-Have Skills & Experience

• 10+ years of professional backend development experience in enterprise-scale systems.
• 7+ years of production experience with Go (Golang) – strong command of idioms, concurrency, and microservices architecture.
• Hands-on Ruby on Rails experience, especially with reading/modifying code during migrations.
• Deep knowledge of authorization models (RBAC, ABAC) and security best practices (deny-by-default, audit logging).
• Strong experience with MySQL or other relational databases.
• Observability practices: metrics, logging, tracing.
• Ability to ship a production-ready pull request within the first two weeks.
• Excellent communication skills – structured, clear, and able to explain technical trade-offs and architectural choices.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Experience with Kubernetes and CI/CD (GitHub Actions).
• Familiarity with observability tools (Datadog, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus).
• Knowledge of Go authorization frameworks (OPA, Casbin, Authzed).

Conditions

• Full-time dedication (40 hours/week).
• Device provided by the client (no BYOD).
