Senior Golang Developer + AI

Das erwartet dich About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Golang Engineer to help us build and scale our AI platform.

This role is highly product-oriented, with a strong focus on rapid iteration, experimentation, and delivering production-ready AI functionality. You will work primarily on building backend services, APIs, and platform capabilities that power AI workflows and tools, while collaborating closely on user-facing applications where needed.

The ideal candidate combines strong backend engineering in Go, solid software architecture skills, and practical experience working with AI systems and LLM-based applications. Frontend experience with React and TypeScript is a plus, but not the core focus of the role.

We are looking for someone who can take ownership of technical initiatives, contribute architectural ideas, and drive projects from concept to production and beyond, while balancing innovation with operational pragmatism.
