About the Role

We're seeking a hands-on VPN Backend Architect (Golang) to lead our backend team while spending 70% of your time writing Golang code. You'll set technical direction for our backend platform serving millions of users, guide an engineering team, and own architecture decisions for distributed services that must be fast, reliable, and secure at scale.

This role suits someone who wants to design secure, scalable systems and write the code that runs them.

What You'll Do

  • Define and evolve the architecture of our backend platform serving connections from millions of users
  • Design and build highly available distributed services in Golang while setting technical direction on scalability, reliability, and performance targets
  • Lead code reviews and champion testing discipline, clean architecture, and engineering best practices across the team
  • Partner with the SDK team to integrate client features cleanly into backend systems and deliver end-to-end functionality
  • Mentor engineers and grow the technical depth of the team while collaborating with security, infrastructure, and product teams
  • Drive the team to meet performance targets and ship reliable products that protect users at scale

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field.
  • 8+ years of backend engineering & architecture experience with 5+ years in Golang
  • Proven track record designing and operating distributed systems at scale with deep understanding of networking protocols (IP, TCP, UDP, HTTP/HTTPS, DNS)
  • Hands-on experience with VPN protocols (WireGuard, OpenVPN, IPsec), tunneling, NAT traversal, and low-latency networking
  • Production experience on AWS (EC2, EKS, S3, Aurora/RDS) with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and strong Linux development background
  • Working knowledge of cryptography fundamentals, threat modeling methodologies, secure coding practices, and strong API design skills

Bonus Points

  • Master's degree in Computer Science or related field
  • Network performance tuning and optimization experience with knowledge of Python and Java
  • Experience with NoSQL databases and familiarity with observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
