Job Description
Role: Sr. Software Engineer - Golang
Location: 100% Remote
Duration: 6 month + Contract
W2 Only without SPONSORSHIP
NOTES:
- 5-7 yrs relevant exp
- Refactoring 2 platform solutions for alerts, custom IBM solution
- Event Management Solution
- eBonding - system integration allowing for automated, bi-directional exchange of data between applications, streamlining workflows and improving collaboration between Solarwinds and a custom IBM product.
- These platforms support a multi-billion dollar agreement with federal government agencies. They say this solution will be replaced but they've been saying for that about 4 years. Goal is to transfer these two platforms to a ServiceNow based solution.
- Golang with PostGres and RabbitMQ backend (or similar messaging / streaming solution such as Kafka)
Apex is seeking a Golang Developer with deep expertise in automation systems, distributed systems, and high-throughput application design to contribute to advanced projects using Temporal.
