Job Description

Project – the aim you’ll have We are looking for a Go Developer to help build a private cloud platform for a Dutch managed services provider working with public-sector customers in Western Europe. The client delivers both private and public cloud as a managed service, and this platform is their own private cloud offering: built and run in Go on Kubernetes. Your work covers new services and the Kubernetes operators that manage the platform, as well as migrating existing workloads onto it and maintaining it once it is live - new development runs alongside migration and run-phase work, not after it. Go is a relatively new direction here. The team's engineering background is mainly Python, and the move to Go is still taking shape. That is the opportunity in this role: what you write early on becomes the reference for what comes after, and you have a say in how the platform's Go codebase takes shape instead of inheriting decisions made years ago. You join a mixed team of 6+ engineers split between Poland and the Netherlands, working as one team rather than as a vendor and a client side. English is the working language, used daily in design discussions, code review and documentation. The role is fully remote from Poland, with no on-call duty. Role – how you’ll contribute Design, develop, test and deploy back-end services in Go for the private cloud platform

• Write and maintain Kubernetes operators and controllers in Go
• Test, debug and improve existing infrastructure applications
• Take part in migrating existing workloads onto the new platform
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines in GitLab for the services you own
• Work with architects, functional designers and other specialists on system and application design
• Review code, write technical documentation and share knowledge within the team

Qualifications

Expectations – the experience you need

• Min. 4 years of commercial back-end development, including min. 2 years building production services in Go
• Go concurrency (goroutines, channels, context, sync), the standard library, and building REST and gRPC services
• Building CI/CD pipelines in GitLab and working across the full delivery lifecycle
• Writing tests in Go with the standard testing package and Testify or Ginkgo
• Building and running containerised applications on Linux, including debugging services, reading logs and troubleshooting basic networking on hosts
• English at B2 or higher - the language of the project, used daily with Dutch colleagues in design discussions, code review and documentation

Additional skills – the edge you have

• Kubernetes operators or controllers written in Go - a core part of this role, so experience here puts you ahead from week one
• Python, incl. Pytest - the team's main language so far, and part of the tooling and testing stays in it
• Robot Framework - used for acceptance testing alongside the Go test suites
• Helm, Kustomize and GitOps - the platform is deployed declaratively, so these speed up your first weeks
• HashiCorp Vault and Terraform - for secrets management and infrastructure provisioning on the platform
• CKA or CKAD - not required, but it maps directly onto the Kubernetes work here

Additional Information What we offer:

• Flexible and remote cooperation options
• International projects with leading global clients
• Travels related to international projects
• Non-corporate atmosphere
• Access* to language classes
• Access* to knowledge-sharing initiatives
• Access* to private healthcare and life insurance
• Access* to multisport card
• The availability and terms of individual benefits may vary depending on the chosen form of cooperation.
