Summary

We've partnered with one of Europe's fastest-growing data and analytics companies, a business that’s redefining how real-time, high-volume data is modelled, predicted, and delivered at scale.


Having recently been recognised for outstanding growth and innovation by a leading global consultancy, they’re now expanding their global footprint with a newly formed engineering team in Dubai, and you could be one of the first key hires.


If you’re excited about building scalable systems, solving complex architectural problems, and contributing to real-world data products used globally, then this could be the move you’ve been waiting for.


As a Senior Golang Engineer, you’ll play a critical role in designing, building, and operating the platform that handles tens of thousands of real-time requests per minute. You’ll collaborate closely with product teams, data scientists, and engineers to deliver robust, high-performance systems in a fast-paced, innovation-led environment.


This is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who enjoys working autonomously within a collaborative, startup-like culture but with the backing and resources of a market leader.


What you'll be working on:


  • Designing and building a cloud-native microservices platform
  • Operating high-throughput distributed systems using Golang and AWS
  • Solving complex problems around scalability, multi-threading, and real-time data
  • Building and managing APIs (GraphQL/gRPC) and ensuring low-latency performance


What you’ll need:


  • 5+ years of professional experience with Golang in production environments
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, event-driven architecture, and microservices
  • Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS)
  • Skilled in working with PostgreSQL, Redis, and/or DynamoDB
  • Familiarity with modern API design patterns (e.g., GraphQL, gRPC)
  • Knowledge of Docker or Terraform is a plus


What’s on offer:


  • A full-time role based in Dubai, with the opportunity to join a newly forming, high-impact engineering team
  • Relocation support
  • Visa sponsorship and private healthcare insurance included
  • A flat-structured, fast-paced work culture with global exposure and cutting-edge projects
  • Clear path for growth within a globally scaling company that prioritizes innovation and performance
