Senior Backend Engineer, Analytics Instrumentation (Golang) at Gitlab

This role is ideal for a seasoned backend developer with deep expertise in **Golang** and a passion for foundational infrastructure. You are likely an engineer who enjoys building systems that other developers use—specifically, architecting centralized services that replace fragmented SDKs. Since this team bridges the gap between raw data and business intelligence, a background in data engineering, observability, or usage billing systems will be highly valuable. The standout feature of this position is the **radical flexibility** and compensation transparency. With a salary range reaching up to **$252k**, plus equity and a "Growth and Development Fund," the financial upside is significant. You’ll work in a fully remote, asynchronous environment that values AI-driven productivity and provides a home office stipend to ensure your setup is professional-grade. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have extensive experience building and maintaining high-performance production services in **Go**. * Enjoy "platform engineering" tasks, like designing unified APIs (REST/gRPC) for internal teams. * Are comfortable with **Ruby on Rails** (as you'll be migrating/integrating with existing systems). * Thrive in an asynchronous culture where you are expected to document your work and lead cross-functional collaborations.
