About The Position

Were seeking a highly skilled Platform Engineer with deep experience in building systems from the ground up. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex distributed-systems challenges, shaping core infrastructure, and working across both backend engineering and DevOps. You'll help design and implement scalable platform components, contribute to high-performance backend systems, and support infrastructure that enables rapid iteration and secure, reliable deployments. A strong background in Go (Golang) is essential, along with familiarity in modern cloud-native tooling. An understanding of EVM-based systems or blockchain fundamentals is a plus, but not required.

Requirements

  • Strong experience developing backend systems in Go
  • Proven track record of building systems from scratch (not just maintaining existing services)
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems, concurrency, and performance tuning
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure), containerization, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Comfortable working across infrastructure, systems design, and backend engineering
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate in a remote-first environment

Nice To Haves

  • Familiarity with EVM-based architectures , blockchain systems, or smart contract ecosystems
  • Knowledge of modern networking, observability tooling, or high-performance systems

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain core platform components and backend services
  • Develop scalable systems from scratch with a strong focus on performance and reliability
  • Contribute to architecture decisions across distributed systems, APIs, and internal services
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to design platform primitives and developer tooling
  • Support infrastructure needs across CI/CD, observability, networking, and environment management
  • Ensure systems are secure, maintainable, and resilient under high throughput
  • Troubleshoot production issues and drive continuous improvement
