We are looking for a Back-End Engineer to help build the cloud services behind Rapsodo’s products. Every swing and pitch captured by a Rapsodo device becomes data that flows through our platform to athletes and coaches, often in real time. You will build and maintain the APIs, databases, and event-driven services that power that experience, using Go, PostgreSQL, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). You will ship production code early, with mentorship and code reviews from senior engineers.

• Lead the design, development, and maintenance of cloud-based backend applications using Go (Golang) programming language.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to gather requirements, architect solutions, and implement features that align with business needs.
• Utilize PostgreSQL and Elasticsearch to design and optimize databases and data storage solutions for efficient retrieval and real-time querying.
• Develop real-time applications and services on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), leveraging cloud-native tools and technologies.
• Implement RESTful APIs and microservices to ensure scalable and performant communication between various components of the application.
• Write clean, maintainable, and testable code while following best practices for software development.
• Monitor application performance and troubleshoot issues to ensure optimal functionality and user experience.
• Stay updated with industry trends and emerging technologies, suggesting innovations that enhance our backend architecture.

Requirements

• Bachelor's or higher degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
• Strong hands-on experience in backend development with Go.
• Experience building cloud-based applications, preferably with GCP.
• Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and database design.
• Experience with RESTful APIs, event-driven systems, and microservices.
• Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and Git.
• Experience with AI-assisted development tools and integrating AI into the software development lifecycle.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
• Ability to work independently and effectively within a team.
