  • Write clean, maintainable code with strong testing practices
  • Collaborate in agile sprints to deliver high-quality features and improvements
  • Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
  • Support cloud deployments (primarily GCP, but AWS/Azure experience welcome)
  • Participate in architecture discussions, code reviews, and documentation
  • (Optional) Contribute to frontend development (Svelte, React, Vue) with training available

  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (GCP preferred, AWS or Azure welcome)
  • Experience working in agile environments with modern version control tools (e.g. Git)
  • Eagerness to learn and work with Golang

Desirable

  • Knowledge of microservices, Kubernetes, or serverless architectures
  • Exposure to Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar)
  • Familiarity with distributed systems concepts (e.g. gRPC)
  • Frontend development experience (Typescript, Svelte, React, Vue, etc)

Whats In It For You

  • Dedicated support to learn and work with Golang on production systems
  • Career development and exposure to leading technologies
  • Flexible hybrid working 2 days in a central waterside Bristol office
