Golang Developer

Role & responsibilities

3-8 years of software engineering experience, including substantial hands-on development and debugging in Go.

Strong command of Go modules, semantic versioning, transitive dependency resolution, package compatibility, and idiomatic API refactoring.

Practical experience with Bazel, go build, go test, CI/presubmit pipelines, and troubleshooting large or monorepo-based build environments.

Demonstrated ability to isolate compiler, linker, build, test, and runtime failures introduced by dependency upgrades.

Proficiency with Git-based change management, code review, merge-conflict resolution, and local patch lifecycle management.

Strong Linux and scripting skills for investigation, repeatable validation, and engineering automation.

Clear written and verbal communication, disciplined documentation, and effective collaboration with reviewers and language SMEs.

Preferred experience:

Copybara or comparable source-synchronization tooling.

Large-scale OSS dependency upgrade, vulnerability-remediation, or package-maintenance programs.

Complex dependency graphs, generated code, multi-target changes, and high-impact API migrations.

Building reusable upgrade playbooks or automation within controlled enterprise environments.

Expected outcomes:

Accepted package upgrade: package builds pass, existing tests pass, applicable presubmits pass, and the change list is submitted.

Migration report: package/version details, code and dependency remediation, validation evidence, patch disposition, and documented exceptions.

Predictable delivery: early blocker escalation, clean handoffs, reusable learnings, and reliable progress against assigned priorities.
