What I'm looking for

Senior Golang Developer (100% Remote)

As a seasoned Senior Full Stack Engineer with nearly a decade of experience, I am passionate about creating scalable, high-performing software solutions that deliver exceptional user experiences. My expertise spans backend technologies like Go (Golang), Node.js, and Python, as well as frontend frameworks such as React.js and Redux. I have a proven track record in designing and optimizing microservices architectures, leveraging tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform to ensure seamless deployment, scalability, and automation. A strong advocate for collaboration, I enjoy mentoring junior developers, leading cross-functional teams, and contributing to a culture of innovation and efficiency. Beyond my technical acumen, I take pride in my ability to solve complex problems, integrate cutting-edge technologies like Elasticsearch, Kafka, and Redis, and continuously improve system performance and security. My interests align with building user-focused platforms, exploring new tools for cloud integration (AWS, GCP), and fostering agile software delivery. I am driven to make a positive impact through technology and thrive in environments that value teamwork, ingenuity, and growth.
