1126 | Go Application Architect

Intetics Inc., a global technology company providing custom software application development, distributed professional teams, software product quality assessment, and “all-things-digital” solutions, is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Go Application Architect to join our dynamic team on a full-time basis.

What You will do:

• Translate ambiguous business requirements into a clear, well-structured technical architecture;
• Design distributed and microservice-based systems that are scalable, fault-tolerant, and maintainable;
• Make and justify architectural trade-offs (performance vs. complexity, consistency vs. availability, build vs. buy);
• Design robust API contracts (REST/gRPC) with versioning and backward compatibility in mind;
• Architect data storage strategies across relational and non-relational databases, including schema design and query optimization;
• Design event-driven and asynchronous flows using message brokers (Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS);
• Anticipate scalability and reliability risks before they become production incidents, and design systems that account for load, failure modes, and observability from the start;
• Produce clear architecture documentation (ADRs, technical specs, diagrams) that both engineers and business stakeholders can follow;
• Guide and mentor development teams on best practices, code quality, and Go idioms without formally managing them;
• Communicate technical decisions and trade-offs effectively to Product Owners, Solution Architects, and other non-technical stakeholders;
• Evaluate new technologies, tools, and frameworks and assess their fit for the team's technical roadmap;
• Balance hands-on coding with architectural oversight — staying technically credible while enabling other engineers to execute.
