Junior–Mid Golang Engineer | Melbourne / Hybrid


💰 Salary: $90k–$120k + Super (depending on experience)

📍 Location: Melbourne / Flexible Hybrid


I’m looking for an up-and-coming Golang Engineer who’s ready to level up their skills in a high-quality engineering environment working on genuinely interesting products.


This company?


They’re a fast-growing SaaS business that powers slick digital experiences used by millions of people around the world. Their product connects global brands with their audiences — across sports, entertainment, payments, media and more — and they’re scaling their engineering team as they grow.

You’ll be joining a tight-knit, collaborative team where you’ll learn heaps and have the opportunity to work across a modern serverless stack.


🔧 What you’ll be doing:

  • Building clean, secure, event-driven services using Golang
  • Integrating with APIs and third-party services
  • Contributing ideas in architecture and design discussions
  • Writing unit and integration tests to maintain solid test coverage
  • Collaborating with product, devops, and other engineers to ship features smoothly


🛠️ What we’re looking for:

  • Around 1–3 years’ experience as a Software Engineer, with at least some commercial Golang experience
  • A decent understanding of API development (REST, GraphQL preferred)
  • Experience working in cloud environments — AWS knowledge would be awesome but not essential
  • Familiarity with good coding practices (security, maintainability, clean code principles)
  • An attitude that says “let’s get stuck in and solve some problems together”


Why you’ll love it:

  • Modern tech stack: Golang, AWS Lambda, ECS, SQS/SNS, MongoDB, Snowflake
  • A team that values quality engineering but doesn’t take itself too seriously
  • Flexible hybrid working — mostly remote if you want it, with an office to collaborate in when needed
  • Exposure to global brands and high-usage systems (seriously cool clients)
  • Strong mentoring environment: perfect for someone looking to accelerate their career


🎯 Keen?


If you’re a junior or mid-level software engineer with Golang experience (or coming from a background that makes you a fast learner in this space) — let’s have a chat.
