Responsibilities:

• Building and evolving a real-time cross-selling platform, working with real-time data flows and business logic for personalized offers within an insurance context.
• Owning the backend powering multiple user-facing apps, advancing our gRPC-based microservice architecture.
• Designing and maintaining REST/gRPC APIs for integration with core insurance platforms and third-party services (risk scoring, KYC, payments).
• Working with PostgreSQL to model and manage transactional data such as policies, claims, and customer records, including audit trails.
• Implementing event-driven workflows using RabbitMQ or Kafka to handle claims, policy updates, and notifications reliably.
• Writing and maintaining unit and integration tests, with particular attention to logic involving monetary calculations and claims/premium accuracy.
• Instrumenting services with Grafana/Prometheus to monitor critical flows and proactively catch issues before they impact users.
• Actively participating in code reviews to ensure the platform and codebase meet the highest quality standards.
• Taking a proactive role in all aspects of platform design and development, with a strong emphasis on scalability, availability, and resilience.
• Collaborating closely with Business Analysts, QA, and DevOps within an Agile/Scrum framework, translating evolving business and regulatory requirements into technical solutions.
• Contributing to architectural decisions that balance flexibility for multiple consuming apps with long-term maintainability and fault tolerance.

Must-haves:

• Commercial development experience for 5+ years, including 3+ years working with Go in production environments.
• Higher education in Computer Science (software development, etc.).
• Extensive experience working with AI and the process of implementing/configuring it within a team.
• Experience working in fintech, banking domains, and working with complex integrations.
• Strong hands-on experience with Golang, including concurrency, for handling high-volume insurance transactions (policy issuance, claims, premium calculations).
• Practical experience with Docker for containerized deployments in regulated/enterprise environments.
• Solid PostgreSQL skills modeling policy/claims data, handling audit trails and historical records.
• Experience with RabbitMQ or Kafka for event-driven workflows (claims events, policy updates, notifications) with reliable delivery guarantees.
• Hands-on experience with gRPC/REST APIs, including integration with core insurance platforms and third-party services (KYC, risk scoring, payments).
• Strong backend testing discipline, especially for logic involving monetary calculations and claims/premium accuracy.
• Practical experience with Grafana/Prometheus for monitoring SLA-critical flows (claims, payments).
• Solid understanding of Agile/Scrum.
• Proven experience building resilient, fault-tolerant Go applications.
• Level of English from Upper-Intermediate+ and above.
