Senior Backend Engineer - 1 day WFH

Build at the Speed of Now: Senior Backend Engineer (Go) in Mid Valley
Our client is a high-growth technology company developing next-generation, real-time SaaS platforms with global ambitions. They are building their core engineering team in Malaysia and seeking a Senior Backend Engineer with strong Go expertise to help architect the high-performance systems that power their platform - on a permanent basis.

Why Apply?
This is your opportunity to work on technically demanding, performance-critical systems where precision and speed are non-negotiable. You'll have genuine ownership of complex backend components, collaborate with a sharp engineering team, and shape the architecture of a product built for scale - all from a Mid Valley base.

The Role
From real-time data pipelines to distributed microservices, you'll engineer systems that don't miss a beat.
  • Design and build real-time processing engines using Go
  • Build settlement and ledger systems that guarantee transactional integrity and idempotent precision
  • Implement data streaming pipelines for instant updates and decision-making
  • Architect scalable, fault-tolerant microservices for speed and reliability
  • Ensure seamless connectivity across core platform components including wallet, risk, and user management
  • Partner with DevOps to support deployments and monitoring on GCP/Kubernetes
  • Conduct code reviews, mentor team members, and drive engineering excellence
  • Drive continuous performance tuning and resilience improvements across the stack
What We're Looking For
A hands-on Go engineer with a passion for precision and real-time systems.
  • Deep practical expertise in Go (Golang) for high-performance backend development
  • Proven background in real-time or high-concurrency backend systems
  • Solid understanding of real-time financial settlement, trading logic, or transaction-heavy domains
  • Experienced with event-driven architectures and messaging tools (Kafka, RabbitMQ)
  • Comfortable with GCP, CI/CD pipelines, PostgreSQL, and Redis
  • Open to Malaysian citizens only
  • Advantageous: exposure to trading, fintech, or real-time transaction platforms
Ready to engineer systems where every millisecond matters? Apply now and let's talk.
