Backend Services Engineer - Golang | Java | Microservices
Job Summary:
We are looking for a Backend Services Engineer with hands-on experience in building and optimizing microservices using Golang and Java. The ideal candidate should be comfortable developing scalable services, debugging complex issues, and leveraging language-specific features to write clean and efficient code. This role is ideal for engineers who love backend systems, service architecture, and performance tuning.


Key Responsibilities:
Microservices Development:

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable and fault-tolerant microservices using Golang and Java.
• Architect APIs and service interfaces that are clean, consistent, and extensible.
• Use best practices for microservice communication, service discovery, and fault handling.

Golang Engineering:

• Write idiomatic Go code using features like goroutines, channels, and interfaces.
• Optimize Go applications for performance and memory usage.
• Debug Go services using tools like pprof, go test, and go mod for dependency management.

Java Engineering:

• Build robust backend services using Java (Spring Boot or other frameworks).
• Maintain and optimize legacy and new Java services as needed.
• Ensure unit testing, integration testing, and CI/CD compatibility across Java codebases.

Code Security and Dependency Upgrades:

• Proactively identify and fix code vulnerabilities by upgrading third-party libraries and dependencies.
• Conduct impact analysis, refactor code, and ensure test coverage for version upgrades.
• Collaborate with security and platform teams to ensure compliance with security best practices.

Branch Management & Technical Debt Reduction:

• Clean up stale branches, unused code, and outdated modules in the codebase.
• Define and enforce branching best practices, including naming conventions, merge strategies, and review processes.
• Drive technical debt reduction initiatives, improving maintainability and development velocity.

Service Reliability & Performance:

• Debug and optimize services for low latency, high throughput, and high availability.
• Use logging, tracing, and observability tools to track service health and performance.
• Identify and resolve memory leaks, thread contention, and I/O bottlenecks.

Infrastructure & Integration:

• Work with containerization tools (e.g., Docker) and orchestrators like Kubernetes for deployment and scaling.
• Integrate services with internal tools, databases, caches, and messaging systems.
• Handle secure API integrations, authentication flows, and configuration management.

Collaboration & Documentation:

• Collaborate closely with DevOps, product, and frontend teams to ensure smooth service delivery.
• Document service designs, interface contracts, and operational runbooks.

Key Requirements:

• Strong programming skills in Golang and Java.
• Solid understanding of microservices architecture, patterns, and best practices.
• Experience working with REST APIs, gRPC (nice to have), and message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.).
• Familiarity with service monitoring, logging, and debugging tools.
• Experience with containerized deployments and cloud-native environments.
• Knowledge of databases (SQL or NoSQL) and caching mechanisms.
• Comfortable working in an agile environment with code reviews and rapid iterations.
