About The Role

Our organization is currently recruiting two Senior Go Engineers on behalf of a key client in the cybersecurity industry. The client is a growing cybersecurity software company building their core product from the ground up. They are looking for experienced, self-directed engineers who can step in immediately, take genuine ownership of backend architecture decisions, and deliver production-grade systems that the team will build on for years to come. This is a hands-on consulting assignment with a high degree of autonomy — the successful candidates will have real influence over how the backend is structured and how engineering practices evolve as the product scales.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and build significant portions of the backend architecture, making decisions that will shape the codebase for the long term.
  • Deliver scalable, maintainable systems that reduce technical debt from day one — treating clarity and simplicity as core product features.
  • Take end-to-end ownership of features: ship them, measure their impact, and iterate based on results.
  • Identify and automate repetitive processes across development, testing, and deployment pipelines.
  • Apply AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery without compromising quality or security.
  • Contribute to a culture of engineering excellence by advocating for sound trade-offs across security, performance, and stability.

Mandatory Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience delivering production-grade backend applications.
  • Demonstrable proficiency in Go, with a strong grasp of idiomatic patterns and performance considerations.
  • Proven experience with cloud-native development and deployment, preferably on Azure or Cloudflare.
  • Ability to evaluate and articulate trade-offs between security, stability, and speed in a product context.
  • A design philosophy that favours simplicity and treats maintainability as a first-class concern.
  • Track record of working autonomously with full accountability for outcomes, not just outputs.
  • Confident, direct communicator who can align stakeholders and peers without hand-holding.
  • Automation-first mindset: pipelines and tooling built as a matter of course, not as an afterthought.

Nice to Have

  • Background in cybersecurity or experience building security-sensitive products.
  • Hands-on experience with Terraform for infrastructure-as-code.
  • Familiarity with observability tooling: OpenTelemetry and Grafana.
  • Exposure to the full stack, including Nuxt and TypeScript on the frontend.
  • Experience with GitHub Actions or comparable CI/CD pipelines.
  • Previous consulting experience or a background at early-stage companies where you built from zero to one.
  • Active use of AI-assisted coding tools to increase throughput.

Logistics

  • Start date: August 2026
  • Duration: 4-6 months (with possibility of extension)
  • Location: Stockholm (Hybrid)
  • Engagement type: Consulting assignment
  • Other: Two positions available. Candidates must be immediately available or have a short notice period.

What We Offer

  • A dynamic and innovative workplace driving advancements in cutting-edge robotic technologies
  • The opportunity to collaborate with talented cross-functional teams on meaningful and impactful projects
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package
  • A supportive culture that fosters continuous learning, growth, and professional development
  • Flexible hybrid working model for an optimal work-life balance
  • 25 days of annual leave to recharge and relax
  • An annual wellness allowance of 3,500 SEK to support your health and wellbeing
