Job description

$160000 - $190000

A growing technology company focused on building charitable gaming and fundraising products is looking for a Senior Go Developer to join its engineering team. The organization builds 50/50 raffles, sweepstakes, and lottery products for charitable organizations, with a technology stack centered around Go, TypeScript, Vue.js/React, AWS, and cloud-native infrastructure. The team is actively migrating its backend from .NET to Go and its frontend toward TypeScript, making this a hands-on opportunity to help shape the next generation of the platform.

The Opportunity

You’ll join a small, outcome-driven engineering team where developers own features end-to-end-from clarifying requirements directly with business stakeholders through deployment to production. There is no heavy PM translation layer, giving you more context, ownership, and influence over technical decisions. The biggest draw is the opportunity to work on a real, active .NET-to-Go migration, while helping define the architecture and direction of a platform whose products have raised more than $1 billion for charitable organizations across North America.
