Are you looking to join a fast-growing tech company?


We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Go / Kubernetes / Cloud-Native) to collaborate with a global, fully remote tech organization that originated as a Kubernetes-native open-source initiative and has since evolved into a leading enterprise-focused testing orchestration platform.

The company is currently scaling rapidly, backed by international investors, and operating with distributed teams across Europe, the US and Asia. You will play a central role in the evolution of a highly technical product used by engineering teams worldwide.


Responsibilities

  • Develop backend features in Go, ensuring high performance, maintainability and clean architecture.
  • Evolve and optimize the existing cloud-native platform built on Kubernetes.
  • Design and implement distributed services, APIs and components for large-scale test orchestration.
  • Collaborate with product and customer-facing teams to ensure strong alignment between technical decisions and user needs.
  • Participate in the continuous improvement of the product, proposing scalable, reliable and customer-driven solutions.
  • Maintain high standards in documentation, testing, observability and version control.


Requirements

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Strong expertise in Go.
  • Deep, hands-on experience with Kubernetes (development + operational).
  • Solid understanding of cloud-native architectures, distributed systems and microservices.
  • DevOps knowledge: CI/CD, networking, infrastructure, security, cloud environments (GCP preferred).
  • Database experience with MongoDB and PostgreSQL.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to thrive in small, highly technical teams.
  • Ability to perform in fast-paced, high-pressure, resource-limited contexts.
  • Experience supporting customers or enterprise users.
  • A strong product mindset, not just technical execution — able to understand real user needs and translate them into engineering decisions.
  • Fluent English (this is the primary working language across teams)


Nice to have

  • Experience with performance testing or functional testing tools.
  • Background in open-source environments or developer-focused products.
  • Experience working with distributed remote teams.


Work Arrangement

  • 100% remote work.
  • Opportunity to join a fast-growing, innovative company.
  • Engagement as a freelance / self-employed contractor in Europe (Spain, Portugal, or other EU countries)
