Senior Backend Engineer

PlatformRemote · EUFull-time

Build and scale the core NDC adapter layer in Go. You will own service reliability, design internal APIs, and work closely with airline integrations. 4+ years of backend experience required.

What you'll do

  • Design and maintain high-throughput Go microservices that interface with 20+ airline NDC APIs.
  • Own service reliability — on-call rotations, incident response, and post-mortems.
  • Build and iterate on internal tooling for adapter health monitoring and circuit breakers.
  • Collaborate closely with the Partnerships team to onboard new airline integrations.
  • Define and enforce engineering standards around testing, observability, and deployment.

What we're looking for

  • 4+ years of backend engineering experience, primarily in Go.
  • Production experience with distributed systems and REST/gRPC API design.
  • Comfortable with PostgreSQL, Redis, and message queues (NATS / RabbitMQ).
  • Strong opinion on code quality, testing, and documentation.
  • Experience with containerised deployments (Docker / Kubernetes) is a plus.

Nice to have

  • Prior experience with airline or travel industry APIs (NDC, GDS, IATA standards).
  • Familiarity with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, or similar observability tooling.
