Senior Go Engineer (On-Site)

We’re looking for a product-minded Go Engineer who’s hungry to own features end-to-end and ship real value to customers that love their product. If you thrive on fast iteration, love talking to actual users, and want to join a team with hockey-stick growth alongside veteran engineers—you have found your dream job!

What You’ll Do

• Architect, build, and scale services in Go—from sketching ideas on a whiteboard to deploying to prod the same week.

• Own the full lifecycle: gather feedback, design, implement, test, ship, measure, iterate. No hand-offs, no red tape.

• Build an LLM Native Product: orchestrate LLM api calls to produce a product designed from the ground up to work with the latest AI features

• Shape technical and business decision making as part of a seven-engineer team where every voice matters in making critical decisions for the future of the business

• Share Your Differentiated Knowledge; our team’s average experience is 10+ years, and we share generously. We are looking for someone who brings skills/knowledge we don't already have and can learn from others quickly.

Must-Haves

• 3+ years of Go on a customer-facing product

• Comfort in the office five days a week—we believe magic happens face-to-face.

• A bias for action, a love for incredible products, and an allergy to politics.

• Strong opinions (backed by experience and data) about clean APIs, thorough observability, or performance—but loosely held and willing to hear an alternative point of view

Nice-to-Haves

• 0→1 startup experience—you’ve worn multiple hats, can get yourself unstuck and can solve vague user problems no one has solved before

• Experience working with LLMs for user facing products - not just a chat bot you built for fun (although we like that too)

How We Work (Culture)

“No PMs, no EMs = no bureaucracy.”

Everyone says they don't want bureaucracy, but how do you actually prevent it?

We hire experienced, product-obsessed engineers who can spot a user pain, brainstorm a solution, and carry it all the way to prod without a manager holding their hand. Decisions and debates happen in code/pr review, not in meetings. You’ll talk directly with founders, designers, and customers—then ship.

• Ownership over oversight: you pick the tools, set the roadmap, and drive the release.

• Tiny, trusted team, and prolific: 10 people total, 7 engineers. Less coordination, more creation. We have all worked on teams where 10% of the people do 90% of the work. We only want to hire that 10%

• Independence with support: Our office is constantly buzzing with debates, discussions, education and in general, support. High ownership isn't as scary knowing a team has your back

About Us

• Hockey-stick growth: doubling revenue every quarter.

• $50 M valuation with runway to match—fuel in the tank, freedom to build.

• A real *working* business built with LLMs from the ground up.

• Backed by top-tier investors who believe a great product wins over manufactured growth.

• We’re scrappy, frugal, and laser-focused on solving real problems for real users who are obsessed with our product. If you want to work for a product team where their users leave voicemails praising you at 2am, this is the place to do it.

Perks & Benefits

• Competitive salary + serious equity—win as we win.

• Whatever gear you need to be brilliant (top-of-the-line Mac/Linux rig, multiple monitors, the works).

• Daily lunch/dinner, whatever snacks/drinks you like.

• Full medical, dental, and vision insurance
