About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Systems Software Engineer to lead the development of our Linux system management and monitoring infrastructure. This role is perfect for a developer who enjoys working at the intersection of high-level application logic and low-level system internals. In this position, you will build the "brain" of our Debian-based systems—creating Go-based tools that manage software lifecycles, monitor service health, and ensure system-wide observability.

Requirements

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent.
• 7–10+ years of experience in software development.
• Strong experience with Go (Golang). Expert proficiency in Golang (Go) for systems-level programming.
• Proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, or maintaining existing system utilities.
• Experience designing distributed systems or microservice architectures to handle complex system tasks.
• Experience with networking concepts or device management systems.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; mastery in English and local language.
• Ability to effectively communicate product architectures, design proposals and negotiate options at business unit and executive levels.

Nice To Haves

• General understanding of modern deployment environments (e.g., containers, Kubernetes, or similar) is a plus, but not required.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain Golang applications for Linux user-space management, focusing on Debian-based distributions.
• Develop programmatic solutions to monitor installed packages, manage updates via apt/dpkg APIs, and ensure version consistency.
• Design systems to track service status, health metrics, and automated log retrieval/parsing for rapid troubleshooting.
• Oversee the packaging of internal software into production-ready .deb files, including post-install scripting and dependency management.
• Lead the transition toward more modular, service-oriented system tools while maintaining peak performance in a Linux environment.

Benefits

• Health & Wellbeing comprehensive suite of benefits that supports their physical, financial and emotional wellbeing.
• Personal & Professional Development programs catered to helping you reach any career goals you have
• Unconditional Inclusion: We are unconditionally inclusive in the way we work and celebrate individual uniqueness. We know varied backgrounds are valued and succeed here. We have the flexibility to manage our work and personal needs. We make bold moves, together, and are a force for good.
