🌍 Shape ITCAN’s Backend from the Ground Up

Do you design systems with elegance and scale in mind? At ITCAN, we're building a next-gen, cloud-native backend platform. We’re hiring a Tech Lead / Backend Architect to drive this transformation.

This is your chance to lead the architectural direction of a Go-based microservices ecosystem—deployed on AWS with CI/CD, observability, and security as first-class citizens.

🧩 Your Responsibilities

• Platform Architecture: Own the architecture for APIs, internal services, integrations, and data layers.

• Scale & Security: Define service boundaries, system ownership, and multi-AZ AWS infrastructure.

• Engineering Leadership: Mentor backend engineers, enforce coding and testing standards, and guide the migration from legacy systems (PHP to Go).

• CI/CD & DevOps Collaboration: Drive infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), blue/green deployments, and system observability.

• Cross-Team Partnership: Align closely with Product, QA, and DevOps for smooth, secure, and timely releases.

📌 What You Bring

• 7+ years in backend/platform engineering, including 2+ years in a Tech Lead or Architect role.

• Deep experience with Golang, AWS (ECS, RDS, SQS, API Gateway), and PostgreSQL.

• Strong knowledge of CI/CD, system design, and microservice architectures.

• Proven ability to guide platform modernization and lead engineering teams through change.

• Excellent communication, decision-making, and technical documentation skills.

💡 Bonus Advantages

• Experience with PHP → Go migrations.

• Familiarity with HubSpot, gRPC, Kafka, or EventBridge.

• Background in multi-tenant/multi-region platforms.

• Contributions to engineering playbooks, tooling, or internal technical standards.
