Senior Software Engineer I
Location: Remote US
Department: Engineering
At GOAT Group the alias team builds the platform that powers how sellers list, price, and fulfill products on GOAT. We own the full seller experience: onboarding, inventory management, payments, and pricing tools. Our services handle billions of listings across sneakers, apparel, and collectibles, processing real-time pricing events, marketplace integrations, and fulfillment workflows at scale.
In this role, you will:
- Design, build, and operate Go microservices that power seller listings, pricing, payments, and fulfillment across a distributed, event-driven architecture
- Own features end-to-end: from technical design to deployment, monitoring, and iteration
- Debug and resolve production issues across asynchronous, multi-service workflows using distributed tracing and observability tooling
- Work across team boundaries: our projects regularly span catalog, consumer, pricing, and fulfillment pods. You must have clear communication and coordination abilities.
- Contribute to technical design decisions, code reviews, and architecture documentation that shapes how the seller platform evolves
We are looking for:
- 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, with strong proficiency in Go and/or Ruby on Rails
- Experience building and operating event-driven systems (SQS, Kafka, or similar). You understand retry strategies, dead-letter queues, and eventual consistency tradeoffs.
- Proficiency with gRPC / Protocol Buffers for service-to-service communication
- Hands-on experience with DynamoDB or similar NoSQL databases (single-table design, GSI patterns, batch operations)
- Strong relational database experience (PostgreSQL)
- Fluency with observability platforms (Honeycomb, Datadog, or similar) for debugging distributed, asynchronous services in production
- E-commerce or marketplace platform experience
- Bias towards action: you pick up ambiguous problems and drive them forward without waiting for direction
- Curiosity: learning new tech is invigorating. You stay up to date with the latest because it's fascinating. You may casually read source code from open source or other groups in your company.
Nice to have:
- Pricing, fintech, or trading systems experience — backtesting, algorithmic pricing, price constraints
- Search infrastructure experience (OpenSearch, Elasticsearch, Algolia)
- Experience consuming ML model outputs in production services
- Comfort with AI-assisted development workflows (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot)
