Lead Software Engineer - Backend (Go)

We are looking for a highly experienced Tech Lead with a background in Go development to make significant contributions to our dynamic SaaS-based company. As a Tech Lead, you will helm a small development team responsible for our multi-platform CLI tool and various web services, crafted primarily in Go.
Keboola CLI is a sophisticated tool for managing Keboola Connection Projects and their configurations. It streamlines the processes of downloading, modifying, and updating configurations, and integrates seamlessly with your preferred SCM tool to enhance project management through automation, testing, and CI integration.
Our suite of services also includes Data Streams—a high-throughput service for data integration with Keboola, Templates service for better configurations management, and a Modified OAuth proxy to improve authentication processes.
**What you’ll do**:
- ** Make Key Technical Decisions**: Ensure the quality of the technical output and guide the team in solving complex technical challenges.
- ** Focus on Architecture and Technology Stack**: Be responsible for the architecture, technology stack, code quality, and technical processes.
- ** Mentor and Guide**: Often mentor team members on technical matters and work closely with the development team to implement best practices.
- ** Provide Specialized Guidance**: Offer expertise on coding practices, architecture decisions, and other technical skills.
- Actively participate in the development of Keboola CLI and related services.
- Participate in the design and architecture of new services (even outside of your team)
- Provide code reviews for members of your team.
- Be actively involved in designing technical features (participate in design docs and RFCs).
- Share knowledge and experience in the new areas and technologies with people outside of your team.
**What we look for and what are the skills you need to have (or should have)**:
- ** Deep Technical Expertise**: 4-5 years of experience in development using the Go language.
- ** Strong Problem-Solving Skills**: Ability to mentor and guide developers.
- Basic awareness of Docker (ability to write your own Dockerfile, build it, run it, etc.).
- Knowledge of HTTP status codes and REST API (e.g., how to prepare data so that it can be easily consumed).
- Knowledge of API standards (Open API).
- Experience with the Goa framework.
- Ability to work with efficiency/speed and low memory consumption in mind.
- Awareness of relational database systems.
- Basic knowledge of UNIX-based systems.
- Knowledge of micro-service architecture.
- Knowledge of your “stack” (how to write tests, etc.).
And also basic soft skills like:
- Orientation towards results and driving the “goal” from the beginning to the end if needed.
- Patience, sense for details.
- Being a bug hunter, but knowing what is enough and the ability to ask for help.
- Team player, not an independent worker (we work as a team).
- Self-organization and self-discipline.
**A little bit more about the opportunity**:
- Autonomy within your position. We are focused on outcomes, not micromanaging everything that you do. We love free company movement.
- Work with great brands both locally and worldwide. Ask us who we were working with!
- Work with new industry-leading data technologies.
- The opportunity to create the job you want that fits in with the life you want. We know there is life outside of work, and think fulfilment is achieved when all areas of your life fit together.
- We believe the best people are a bit weird and have an inner engine that drives them.
- We strive to push people for career development.
**You can look forward to the following benefits**:
- Competitive compensation.
- Generous paid vacation time. And we mean generous.
- Cool new offices in the heart of Holesovice in Prague.
- We are a company born in the cloud means we are relatively location independent. Want to take an extra-long trip while working on the beach (or forest, or desert?), go ahead - make sure to send us a postcard.
- No set office hours and flexibility (aside from when you are placed on-call to support customers).
**Keboola’s Core Values**:
- Care, love and respect
- No BS
- Get your stuff done and do a bit more
- Create and innovate
- Learn!
- One team
Come One, Come All
